Treatment of tinnitus with osteochondrosis of the cervical spine is conservative, but to achieve success it must be comprehensive and individually selected. It is unacceptable to self-medicate, since in this case the effectiveness is extremely low, and the risk of complications, on the contrary, is very high.

Tinnitus in cervical osteochondrosis is a manifestation of cochleo-vestibular syndrome Treatment The main cause of tinnitus in cervical osteochondrosis is associated with circulatory disorders, so the treatment regimen is as follows:.

Method.

Characteristic.

Drug therapy.

Drug therapy is aimed primarily at regulating vascular lumen and blood pressure.. The group of medications used also includes drugs for symptomatic therapy (elimination of headache, inflammation, fibrosis).

Exercise therapy.

Exercise indirectly affects the elimination of tinnitus. The mechanism and purpose of their appointment are associated with the stabilization of the intervertebral disc and the strengthening of the muscular frame (additional support function). This leads to a slight decrease in pressure on blood vessels and partial normalization of blood circulation.. A sick person will first feel dullness of pain in the head and neck, and only then get rid of other symptoms of pathology, such as extraneous sounds in the ears.

Physiotherapy methods.

Prescribed to relieve local inflammatory processes. Partially able to restore tissue metabolism and have a local vasodilator effect. Are unable to directly influence and heal deeper structures (vertebral arteries, in particular), but indirectly, due to the inclusion of collateral circulation, bring some relief to the patient. Treatment options:.

Phonophoresis - a combination of ultrasound and topical drugs;

UHF - exposure to high-frequency electromagnetic field;

Electrophoresis - a combination of an electric field and topical preparations;

Magnetotherapy - exposure to a strong magnetic field;

Myoreflexotherapy - impact on certain muscle groups;

Balneotherapy - impact on the body with water (baths, showers, mud therapy);

· Spa treatment.

Massage.

Acts on the elimination of tinnitus indirectly. Kneading and rubbing muscles increases blood flow to tissues and stimulates collateral circulation (nutrition of ischemic areas is improved by additional vascular branches). Removes muscle spasm and normalizes the mobility of the affected segment (short-lived action). It can be manual (classic, point, Thai, segmental-reflex) and hardware (vacuum-roller, vibration), as well as mixed.

Manual therapy.

Post-isometric relaxation is often used, which aims to restore normal muscle tone by stretching. The technique differs from a typical massage in a relaxing nature (the goal is not to warm up the muscle tissue, but to gently stretch).

Surgical intervention.

Disease in advanced stages (intervertebral hernia) may require radical treatment. If the disease spreads quickly, in the absence of the effect of conservative therapy, the following options for surgical treatment are possible:.

Periarterial sympathectomy (ligation of the sympathetic trunk);

Decompression of the vertebral arteries;

Resection or total excision of damaged discs with possible prosthetics.

The operation is carried out only according to indications and after a thorough examination.

Patients can be shown special orthopedic products (period of use from 1 to 3 months).
