Is there any way to reduce or eliminate tinnitus? Does a deaf person always hear tinnitus?

I have no such symptoms. I know that I sometimes get earwax plugs, so I put 3 drops of oil twice a day in each ear and I made an appointment to go get cleaned in 2 weeks (there was no sooner), even though I don't feel that I have a plug right now. I usually feel a plug in my right ear and I also have some in the other ear even if I don't realize it. It's my right ear that's ringing right now. I don't feel that I have a plug (no pressure, no problem hearing. I've never had an ear start to ring louder because of a plug.

I have had tinnitus for several years, but it was mild. This ear started to squeal enough to keep me from falling asleep quickly and concentrating on my work.

I tried to make an appointment with 811 option 3 (2 hour wait!) for the group of doctors I was referred to, but they told me that since my ears didn't hurt, that I needed to have the cleaning done at the CLSC.
