Has anyone actually been to this clinic in India for PRP to treat their tinnitus? Looks like they add growth factors and several other things to the PRP.

I've seen videos from this doctor but I found it impossible to contact him for price etc.

Also the conclusions on the paper look rather sparse...

The doctor told me $300 per IT PRP injection in 2020. They do the injections 2 weeks apart. She said it helps some and not others. I recently talked to her on Messenger. I asked her for referrals from the US and she didn't reply.

That's interesting.

So you only need 2 jabs over the 2 weeks? It's worryingly cheap too...

An IV of Lidocaine knocks out tinnitus but it's not practical. I know my C2 is bad according to my report from Piper. I guess the neck nerves can crossover to the hearing nerves somehow and cause tinnitus. I still have a terrible high pitched static when I woke up primarily in my left ear.

For how long does IV Lidocaine knock out your tinnitus?
