Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thanks for posting the query

I do understand your concern. I'll try my best to help you with this problem.

The tinnitus or the noise in the ear is due to the damage to the sensitive inner ear nerves. Tinnitus is also described as 'crying of the dying nerves'.

It is very difficult for the damage nerves to get repaired. Hence, the tinnitus also remains without treatment. Pain and itching is because of the spasm of the muscles surrounding the Eustachian tube (the tube connecting nose and the ear) or the middle ear.

The treatment options for the tinnitus are tinnitus maskers and injection caroverine. Injection caroverine is the recent innovation in the treatment of tinnitus. You can discuss these treatment options with your doctor.

Hope I have answered your query; I'll be available for the follow up queries.
