Article issues

I read this article and think it needs serious work.
1- The layout that, to me, seems all-over-the-place and not actually represented clearly by the lead. The use of references in the lead is not warranted especially when duplicated. Although there is no "rule" against sourcing content in the lead this is considered a summary of key points found in the article, an overview, and should not contain material not found somewhere in the article. Sourcing content then duplicating the references in the body is unnecessary duplication.
  • The definition?
It is the sensation of hearing various types of noises by an individual that sometimes can be detectable by others (objective tinnitus). It is not a disease but a "symptom" that may be from an unknown cause, by disorders of the inner ear or auditory nerve (otic), certain medications (Over 260 ototoxic kinds) or even the discontinuation, and it can be psychological or nonotic.
  • Listed under "Signs and symptoms:
There are two ways the symptoms can appear which is intermittent and continuous (chronic) tinnitus.

Types

  • pulsatile tinnitus: "The specific type of tinnitus called pulsatile tinnitus" appears to be one type.
  • In the Causes section it states there are two types of tinnitus: subjective ("tinnitus aurium", "non-auditory" or "non-vibratory") tinnitus and objective tinnitus ("pseudo-tinnitus" or "vibratory" tinnitus), and this seems to be definitive except for the confusion of pulsatile tinnitus listed as a "type".
Under the Psychological section "Persistent tinnitus" is also referred to as "continuous".
In the Subjective tinnitus section it states there can also be a "type" known as somatic or craniocervical tinnitus. The wording "type" should be examined. It seems clear there are more than two "types". Otr500 (talk) 12:35, 14 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Another cause.

After five lots of cancer and three different lots of chemotherapy under three different oncologists (we've moved twice since the cancers started), my tinnitus has increased significantly. All three of my oncologists, and both of the hearing clinics I've been to, have told me that this is a common side effect of many chemotherapy drugs. Sadly, I dont have a medical reference for that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.167.145.28 (talk) 08:13, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

HOME REMEDIES

1.Sound therapy-

Decreasing the level of background sound, wearing specialized ear masks as well as hearing aids

2.Tinnitus Retraining Therapy-

Retraining your auditory system to get used to the tinnitus (or buzz / ringing in the ear), this remedy might require a trained professionals and hearing aids that emit low-level white sound(combination of sounds of all different frequencies that the human ear can hear together, it blocks out any background sound).

3.Cognitive behavioral therapy-

Doesn't help with the noise but relieves depression in people with tinnitus.
