Why are we getting the ear pains? My ENT said it wasn't normal lol

@Mo8409 it's just like I can't just have ear pain without tinnitus, or let's even settle for tinnitus without ear pain? Last night was bothersome. Today I am wiped from overexertion with a headache. People keep telling me "it shouldn't hurt" but it seems to be normal here on TT.

@SarahMLFlemmer it has to be. My ear drum will flutter from sounds sometimes. Does yours? First I had hyperacusis and now that's gotten a little better and now my ear drum flutters which comes and goes day by day.

Is the pain deep in the ear Sarah?

@Mo8409 That's tensor tympani syndrome. Common for most of us. I have it in my right ear. It gets better for me when I regularly expose myself to sound, but that causes other problems ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
