    Clogged Ear and Nose After Semi Loud Event

    Hello, unfortunately I'm back after a long time away. I initially got tinnitus more than 1 year ago due to acoustic trauma after a loud night out. It's had a lot of ups and downs since then and there was a point where I'd actually habituated. However I am refraining from literally everything...

    Left Ear Got Very High Pitch Tinnitus After 2 Hours in a Loud Venue

    Hi. I really messed up. I forgot my ear plugs going to a friend's birthday which got very loud at times. I measured it to be around 85 dB for the most part but occasionally got up to 90-92 dB. I was there for 2 hours and not inside the whole time. I was also not very worried since I have...

    This is close to it. I might say it's a little bit higher even -- like more of a beep. This does the job masking though, thanks!

    Recently Got a High Pitch Tinnitus — I Don't Know How to Deal

    Hi, So after 1 year of the same low pitch tinnitus, I recently got a very high pitch that is constant but seems to fluctuate (kind of like a electronic sound that is always there but is static). It's very hard to ignore and although my old pitch seems to be gone -- or at least I can't hear it...

    My Tinnitus Is Bearable Now, So Some Positivity

    Hi, So even though the last week had its ups and downs with a few spikes, I spent a couple of nights in the past month in almost quietness. My tinnitus went from being unbearable at times to moderate to almost inaudible within the last year. It drained me a lot in every way and I'm still trying...

    Going to a Concert While Having Tinnitus, Help?

    So, I don't want to say you should or shouldn't do this. if you are going to feel super anxious maybe it's not worth it. I went to one concert since I got T, and it was a very small venue with barely any speakers and slow folk music. It didn't give me a spike. I made sure to stay away from the...

    Bagpipes — Panic and Serious Problems

    Hi. I had pretty big spikes from unprotected exposure to fire alarms, ambulance sirens etc. but none of them gave me long lasting spikes. In fact my longest spikes are usually from anxiety

    Ear Pain and Tinnitus Spike After Sleeping Wrong Way on Earplugs

    I experienced this twice when I slept with earplugs in (although they were foam). I had pain, some drainage and a huge spike. It went away completely a week afterwards. Hope this helps! I did get my ears checked though in case there was any physical damage because I was worried about the...

    Kiss on the Ear, No Pain Afterwards. Can Tinnitus Permanently Spike?

    No it's just the right ear. But usually it's my right ear that spikes.. I also have the flu and some congestion currently so I was mid-spike. It's hard to tell rn what's what

    Tinnitus and Hearing Loss from a Kiss on the Ear

    Hi, I was wondering how you have been after this incident. I also recently received a kiss and hence a a high pitched addition to my existing low pitched tinnitus. But with my base low pitch, I am very used to it now and it's become very unintrusive since it began.
