SYNPOSIS
First, Dr. Djalilian shares how he got interested in tinnitus. After observing how migraines and tinnitus share many similar triggers, he hypothesized that increased central sensitivity underlies both diseases. He successfully adopted migraine management strategies for his tinnitus patients and found great clinical success. After sharing pathophysiologic similarities between the two diseases, Dr. Djalilian expounds on how he evaluates and treats tinnitus. His discussion includes lifestyle modifications, medication, and emerging surgical therapies. Finally, he advises listeners to think of tinnitus as a manageable condition, rather than a poorly-understood phenomenon.
