    Noxacusis Got Worse from Neighbor Slamming Their Front Door Three Times Consecutively

    Thank you @kingsfan for sharing your experience. After taking Prednisone, did it help your acoustic trauma-induced tinnitus? How long after the noise incident did you take it? For me, it will be two weeks this Friday since the door slams...

    Noxacusis Got Worse from Neighbor Slamming Their Front Door Three Times Consecutively

    Hello everyone, You might recognize my username from other posts here. This year, I have experienced several noise-related incidents that have affected my noxacusis (trigeminal nerve pain, particularly in my left ear).

    My 8-Year (Reactive) Tinnitus and Hyperacusis Journey Thus Far

    Hi @AverageJoe12. Like many of us on here, after seeking professional help that led to nowhere and more emotional upset, I just read online and self-diagnosed. I say I have noxacusis as I get the ear fullness/nerve pain in response to sound. I think hyperacusis means regular sounds appear...

    My 8-Year (Reactive) Tinnitus and Hyperacusis Journey Thus Far

    Hi @Hardwell. Thank you for sharing. Reading your story, I could see some similarities to my ear health. The onset of tinnitus from noise in 2016, an emotional toll but then habituating, setbacks that included nerve pain to sound (I have never noticed hyperacusis), seen good improvements and...

    4 Months Post Acoustic Trauma: Facial Tingling and Nerve Pain Persist

    Hi @Pos, I read your post and related after a really bad ear week myself that is not improving and involves nerve pain. I have had noxacusis for a few years and get ear fullness and lingering trigeminal dull nerve pain on the same side as the affected ear from certain noise exposures. This...

    Increased Tinnitus, Ear Pain and Fullness Following Airbag Deployment

    Hi @summitplum, as it’s almost a month since your post, I hope your ears have recovered or are showing improvements with time. The airbag deployment is always in my mind while driving for those with pre-existing ear issues but we still have to drive. I cannot give any advice on Prednisone as I...
