A member asked:
My doctor said i don't have an ear infection, but he prescribed to me sudogest, cetirizine, and flucticasone. do these help the wave sound that i hear?

Probably not: These meds are for sinus or nasal congestion, not for tinnitus which is what I believe you are describing. No medication specifically helps tinnitus. Your doc may be hoping that by clearing up any congestion you might get relief from what is most often an inner ear condition. These usually clear up spontaneously especially at your young age.
