Tinnitus is just a symptom.
We need to find a cause for it. It may be due to ear problem, inner ear problem, nasal problem or any blood vessel below your ear which is very near to the ear canal, that may also cause the tinnitus.
You have mentioned tinnitus, deafness and occasionally vertigo.
You need to undergo a baseline test first as the Audiometry pure tone. That will show us how much is the hearing loss and whether nerves are affected or is it a meniere's disease. Also get your blood work done- Complete blood count (CBC), Random Blood Sugar (RBS). Kindly get these investigations and get back to me, so that i can help you to solve your problem.
Thanking you,
sincerely yours.
