Olive oil

Any one else tried having daily olive oil?

My tinnitus seems quieter. Except when stressed then it booms. Still there but easier to disguise

my doc used to say use olive oil drops, and indeed my husband’s ENT consult said so too. My audiologist has said not to use it, as it can worsen ear wax, and too much wax certainly feeds the T in my case. But in both instances (husband and me) the oil conversation was for ear wax and itching and not for T.

Other posters might have differing opinions.

Hi, How do you do this...? A few drops in both ears or..?

Yes I use Olive oil drops, but I put a few drops on an ear bud so I can gently wipe inside of my ears that are so itchy, it’s very soothing but tinnitus is still there, I find if I put the drops actually in my ears the tinnitus is louder for some reason.

Thankyouyes olive oil drops in the ears help but I mean taking olive oil orally. Ie 1 tbsp per day ... the more I look into it the more I can see the value !
