Can Hearing Aids Manage Hyperacusis Distortions?

I suffer from painful distortions that are triggered by sharp/impulse sounds as well as intrusive ringing.

My question is: As a symptom management tool, will a low gain in-canal hearing aid would do the dual purpose trick of:

Acting as a partial plug to reduce sharp sounds that triggers distortions, while amplifying environmental sounds to mask the ringing? I have no experience with hearing aids, so please let me know if this makes sense with current technology?

 

I asked this to my ENT some time ago and he said the answer is no, it is not likely that a hearing aid would be beneficial. People who benefit from a hearing aid usually have hearing loss in excess of -40 dB in most frequencies. On top of that it is harder for a person with sensorineural hearing loss to benefit from a hearing aid. It helps better when the hearing loss is conductive.
