Homeopathic Treatments for Ringing in the Ear

Ringing in the ears is known as tinnitus. It can range from a barely perceptible sound to a level that affects the quality of life. When trying homeopathic remedies, the suggestion is to take one dose and see what happens. If things get better, wait a while. If not, try additional dosages. If there are no results after a few days, try one of the other homeopathic solutions. Buy homeopathic versions of these plants or minerals from reputable sources. Consult a doctor for help with prolonged problems.

Chamomilla

Also known as the ground apple, this is an annual. This remedy is suggested when accompanying symptoms make the sufferer easily angered or not talkative.

Bryonia Alba

The common name of this plant is Wild Hops. It is a perennial climbing vine that grows in the wild. Use this for prominent ringing in the left ear.

Arnica Montana

This remedy is known as Leopard's Bane or Mountain Tobacco. It is a perennial that grows in Europe and the Northwestern U.S. Use it if the ear ringing you are experiencing gets better when you lie down.
