Condition analysis:
The condition of tinnitus may be generally categorized into two kinds as mentioned below:

Objective Tinnitus: Usually the person suffering from tinnitus only can feel such sounds, however, in some rare cases it can also be heard by people around. This type of tinnitus is described as an objective tinnitus which can be detected by an observer, either by being in close vicinity to the patient’s ear or with the help of a stethoscope pressed around the neck and head area. This type of tinnitus is generally related to a muscular or vascular malady and accounts for not more than 5 percent of the total tinnitus cases. It is commonly described as pulsatile tinnitus in which the associated noise may be felt beating in sync with the person’s pulse.

Subjective Tinnitus: Subjective tinnitus is a more common type of tinnitus and in this, the associated sound can only be sensed by the sufferer. This kind of tinnitus is most frequently present in general ear disorders which are caused as a consequence of the damaged nerve or hair cell.

Instructions:
Garlic
Another home remedy for tinnitus which comes handy in the everyday kitchen is garlic. Antioxidant properties of garlic help in relieving the ringing sensation associated with tinnitus. Blend about six cloves of garlic with a cup of almond or olive oil till it is nicely mixed and minced. Let the mixture sleep and keep it for about a week. Sieve the liquid and apply a few drops in the ear. This may soothe the ringing feeling in the ear and promote the hearing.

Turpentine
Blend a spoon of clean turpentine with an equivalent amount of almond or olive oil and place a cotton ball squeezed in that mixture in your ear overnight. This would help alleviate the noisy sensation in the ear.
