Sorry to hear of this. We've all done stupid things and worsened our tinnitus. It's part of the painful journey. If I may ask, what part did the neighbours play?

You say that your tinnitus gets worse from your job compared to not going to work. Right away, you should be asking yourself the following questions: Can I accept and live with continually worsening tinnitus from my current job for the rest of my career? Am I prepared to consider a change of...

Removing earwax with a curette in one session is very difficult, if not impossible. Olive oil does not fully penetrate earwax; it only softens the surface it contacts, creating a shiny appearance that can be seen with an otoscope camera. Using a camera-curette tool (with the image displayed on...

If Biden had bought one million Bitcoin back in December 2022, it would have been worth 650% more today. If the American government leads in 'legitimizing' Bitcoin, it may just lead to other countries doing the same. In which case, Bitcoin could easily increase by another 650% - or even more?

In the UK, after the election, the new Prime Minister takes office immediately and the old is turfed out. Wouldn't it be better if the US did the same?

Use olive oil to soften the wax for about a week. Then, use an otoscope camera with a curette attachment, like this one. Be careful. Small, deliberate movements and a steady hand are essential. The eardrum is only 2 cm from the canal entrance, so avoid touching it or even getting too close...

I'm in the UK, I watch CNN regularly. I can't help but compare this planned 'expulsion' of low-paid workers in the US, who uncomplainingly carry out the jobs that no one wants to do, with Brexit in the UK. We lost a load of our workforce due to Brexit. Most weren't even illegals, just offended...

It amazes me that people with tinnitus still get microsuction! Are you wanting worse tinnitus?

I am honestly amazed you are going for an MRI having read the severity of your tinnitus. Good luck!

What is this?

You don’t need to use electric clippers to get a haircut. Before electricity, people still went to hairdressers.

Wear a hooded garment.

Yeah, this is normal. As you brain isn't hearing external noises, it amplifies/focusses on the internal noise. It's one of the reasons why some argue that ear protection is bad for tinnitus. However, if you don't protect your ears from levels of noise, it can cause further damage and worsen...

I strongly recommend that you avoid doing any of the above, @Nick47. Playing artificial frequencies into your ears will not only exacerbate your reactive tinnitus but could also cause permanent worsening. What purpose would this graph or plot even serve? @trevl, there is no need for him to do...
