A member asked:

What is the probability that my tinnitus (ringing in the ear) will go away?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: It depends on whether you are expecting it to be truly gone or if you are okay with being apathetic to it. It will never go away. Background noise to drown it out will make you apathetic to it. 75% chance that this will happen.
