Most patients get tinnitus after hearing degradation. So my first advice is to do a hearing test. You mentioned you visited a doctor, was your hearing normal?

Tinnitus is still in the early stages of research. But the notion of just accept it, it can't be fixed will not be true forever. Researchers just recently started to cure some form of genetic hearing loss. That means one part of the puzzle of transporting gen editing viruses to the inner ear is solved. Next up is figuring out what gen edits are necessary. The field gets surprisingly little funding even though we have an aging population and lots of veterans with hearing issues. Many labs have tiny budgets <1 Mio per year but are making good progress every year. My guess is when one of the rich founders gets it (Elon, Sam, Larry, Brin etc) and decided to do something about it we will see real progress.
