I'm fairly certain this is a case-by-case kind of "remedy". A friend of mine had terrible tinnitus and this did not help him at all. I wonder if this has something to do with bone structure or, perhaps, depends on the severity of the condition. Still, it's solid advice that should be spread wide in case it helps some people.

Same here. My hearing is getting worse and I might have an operation in a few month. Luckily only one side is affected (for now, chances are not good it remains that way)
