Could a ringing in the ears be due to cervical arthritis?

Answer by  blahl (25)

Yes, it can be due to that, but there are also many other causes. Look for a doctor who can do differential diagnosis to eliminate causes until you find the exact one causing this- also look into an acupuncturist or acupressure specialist who can treat both the cervical arthritis and the tinnitus, often very successfully.

The ringing of the ears is not directly related to arthritis but since arthritis is usually treated with NSAIDs (Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs)these drugs can develop tinnitus or ringing of the ears if overdosed.
