@CrystalB Doctors generally focus on physical signs and symptoms, would you ever consider investigating the root cause of your allergies? Are they all year round or seasonal?

If it's from allergies then no. But it's hard to track if it's from allergies or sickness during the winter. I advise you to get out more. Cold air kills bacteria and in winter most people get sick, because they just sit at home and transfer viruses and bacteria to each other. But I'll wear a...

Glad to hear it Gary. I know I was so relieved when my ringing went back to baseline after being insanely loud due to allergies in September.

...fatigue, etc. Said he's ordered so many imaging tests over the years that have revealed nothing. And, oddly enough, over the past few days I've not had any whooshing even when room very quiet at night. I still believe mine has some origin in either my seasonal allergies or stress/anxiety.

Get the old ring ring to your pulse too like me on it? All I have to do is get my pulse to zero and it'll stop I guess ;p

Everyone's allergies are different but I take Dymista, a prescription nasal spray, and O T C Allegra for mine. No tinnitus or hearing effects. Did your Xyzal cause them?

Hello, I have had tinnitus in my left ear for about four months, concurrent with Eustachian Tube Dysfunction likely from allergies. I had ear tubes inserted in both ears this week (both ears because there was pressurization problems in both) and the tinnitus has gotten significantly worse in...

Allergies & possible sinus issues comes to mind , when I read your post. I see no connection as well between tinnitus & horseness. It's possible that if you do have allergies, laying in bed and not elevating your head can lead to possible phlegm staying in throat. Possibly an ENT can advise you...

I have the same thing. Also the itches. Not everyday but pressure i have a lot in both ears. Never tested on allergies. But it al started with the T.

For me I have to keep clearing my throat. My allergies have always been bad.

Not too sure about not tapering, but I was always advised that prednisolone should be tapered, even by vets when giving my dogs a short course for skin allergies.

Yep it's happened to me with congestion due to seasonal allergies. But once I took Claritin for a few days to clear that up, my problem was resolved.

Hi All! I had my 1st Pfizer vaccine shot yesterday. Regarding tinnitus or hearing, no problem at all, my tinnitus remains the same. I have allergies to many things and developed a mild allergy reaction to it, but this is another story. I will let you know anything that may arise during this...

...the ringing, but if I focus on it, sure enough it's there. I took 10 mg claritin (loratadine) the past couple of days and I think it is indeed helpful. Sometimes I do wonder if maybe the tinnitus is entirely caused by allergies and the stress of dealing with the pandemic. Do you have allergies?

Flonase and Nasonex's purpose is to reduce nasal inflammation which can be a good thing for congestion/allergies. Short-term and on occasion. Oftentimes, such as in my situation ENTs generally prescribe this to use forever to deal with allergies along with antihistamines. A question is the...

I just ordered some, and will keep everyone posted on how it works for me. This time of year, my allergies kick in hard, making my T get louder.

How do you cope with these hearing issues? I am starting to lose hearing and it is a lot harder to undersand speech in noise. It's a new thing for me.. how do you manage?

I am currently taking Spirullina (more for allergies than for tinnitus) but I will probably also try some curcumin later. Does anyone know the dosage when I buy turmeric powder? I kind of prefer that instead of pills...

May I ask if you have a history of loud noise exposure, such as going to concerts in the past without hearing protection? What about noise induced pain, clogged ears, and the perception of noises sounding overly loud?

It's a bit more nuanced than that: there are 2 kinds of "Sudafed" for congestion. One of them has been the target of the FDA's advisory. As far as I can tell, the other one (which requires showing ID to the pharmacist) has not been deemed to be ineffective. This matches my experience as well...

@Arianaj, It definitely sounds like a nasal problem and could be down to allergies. When you go to bed you can get post nasal drip going down the back of your throat that enters your eustachian tubes. You might get a snotty taste in your mouth as a symptom. The nasal spray will help. Love...

Yeah I am cutting it short from people causing me pain and T keeps spiking Just a rant but I have tmj and blocked tubes and allergies but in reality people need to understand it's the music and loudless of it. I've suffered for 12 years or more with tmj and allergies and only had T a year so...

Hi I've got T plus allergies ( rhinitis) and swaying / rocking balance all running together daily,the headaches are the pits,paracetamol no good,but I went onto Migraleve,and the difference to headache much improved on them,I think maybe some of us with T may just suffer from some sort of...

The antihistamines aren't prescribed, I just take them because I know I have allergy problems. Do you think my tinnitus could be from ETD and that steaming will help it go away?

It could very well be due to allergies. Did you have recently any head or neck trauma (whiplash e.g.) or do you work in a noisy work environment (a hidden hearing loss)?

Lucky me and sounds about right seeing that I have had ETD my whole life. Do you think allergies could be playing a roll?

aliglitter, Please don't pop your ears. That's how I got tinnitus. You might be suffering from allergies, or allergies might be making your tinnitus worse. I don't have any classic allergy symptoms, but my ears often feel full. I take inhaled steroids for them. I don't like taking...

...and then provide you with some treatments. First could you answer a few questions? Have you had dental treatment where mouth was open for an extensive period? Have you had a procedure or operation where metal was placed? Do you have allergies and if so, when did this start - how long ago?

It sounds like he's treating you for sinus and allergies. I use a spray and antihistamines so I think if you try them you can tell ENT how they are working. Love glynis

I don’t really have any answers but wanted to let you know that I read your story and am so sorry this is happening. We are here for you. Hopefully it’s just a food allergy thing and will go away. Could it also be environmental? Do you have any other allergies?

check out http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16413139 You're right that it may not apply to the newer antihistamines. However, allergies cause inflammation, which can be a cause of tinnitus...

Hi Kaelon, I don't think there is a sound I HAVEN'T experienced. I know I have air borne allergies, but so does a lot of people and they don't have pt with it. I think its a kink in a blood vessel in my head and am hoping to go see Dr. Eisenman in Baltimore. He has cured people with pt and...

I do not recall being on antibiotics. I was on some medication for the allergies, nothing to heavy hitting as antibiotics. I will look into the white noise apps. Thank you.

Now I'm scared that any common thing I might take will make this ringing worse. Sometimes I take NyQuil when my allergies are acting up, what's the deal on NyQuil!?

...Would you say air pressure affects your T ,I do ,I find if weathers damp ,it's puts more pressure on my ears ,like fullness.It affects my allergies to .As were in same neck of the woods ,wondered if you noticed it . I sleep in silence ,noise would keep me awake ,but during the day I prefer...

Do you have allergies? My ears are popping, crackling and ticking all the time, my allergist said it is because of nasal congestion and sinus inflammation... Something with air pressure.

...to help knock me out. I noticed when I took it it also seemed to make the ringing go away. Later when I went to the doctor, I was told allergies could be a factor in my tinnitus, so it makes sense that an allergy pill would help. Though the doctor recommended nasal spray. But for the kind of...

Has anyone had problems with their tinnitus taking these? My tinnitus is through the roof and the last two days I started a high dose for allergies...lots of love glynis

@BuzzyBee, You could try this. It helped me a lot today. Your noise could be related to allergies and/or ETD.

I read antihistamines can cause tinnitus. Just check it out.

...and and antihistamine and it's almost all the way gone. What I'm thinking is the sinus infection hurt and inflamed my ears enough for allergies to come in and keep the ears inflamed even with the infection gone. I'm crying tears of joy because I finally realized this won't be permanent. Just...

How do we know it's allergies causing ear burning and not a damaged cochlea? Could an infection inside the cochlea being causing this? You need to find a good doctor to investigate, there's nothing we can do but speculate.

I've had severe allergies for 6 years or so & my nose is always stuffy so taking Prednisolone might be useful at least for that :dunno: Thank you! Gonna update this thread later.

Ive suspected that my seasonal allergies that causes post nasal drainage, dryness and irritation in the throat to cause a sore throat and possibly irritate Eustachian tubes resulting in increased T.

...since the reflux started several months ago. I caught pneumonia back in October/November last year, initially mistaking it for severe allergies, so I didn't seek treatment as quickly as I should have. After weeks of persistent coughing and a low-grade fever, I was prescribed a strong dose of...

@TheRinger , Welcome to Tinnitus Talk. Try a nasil spray and antihistamines for allergies as the extra mucous can cause tinnitus. Try stream inhalation also to help clear your tubes. Love glynis

...supplementing with this (regulates histamine). Apparently, it is common in cases with low histidine to have high histamine. I was speaking to a biochemist yesterday who uses l-histidine to contain her allergies and tinnitus. MCAS is common in perimenopause and chronic infections (I have Lyme.)

...all within an hour. It can get worse with movement of my jaw or my neck. I’ve had it on and off for two years now. Seems to cycle with allergies, although I have year-round- allergies. Also I have neck and jaw issues and like you, I am a huge clencher. Right now I’m on a heavy regimen of...

...my graduation ceremony but it was 10 days ago before the onset of tinnitus!! 2. I have congested nose since from my school age and lots of allergies and my nasal passages are always blocked. I went to an ENT and he prescribed me nasal spray and antihistamines for allergies. Does anybody...

...when they are little and cannot explain their symptoms. @glynis brought up a very plausible scenario. Sometimes food intolerances or allergies can irritate the digestive system. For example, blood in stools is not uncommon for food allergies. My daughter has a food allergy and was...

I have bad allergies and T, just try and pop you're ears when you can, because if pressure builds up from sinus problems, it could damage you cochlea and make the T worse

Thank you. My mind is spinning just trying to consider if this is due to my eustachian tube dysfunction, my allergies, my anxiety, my teeth grinding (TMJ issues), the Lexapro, or a combination of them. Wondering which sounds most reasonable. As sensitive as my system is right now, I don't want...

Then use surgical mask at home. Avoid contact with their food plates and cups.

Due to my allergies I am an involuntary Vegan. I have to control my diet carefully as I cannot take vitamin supplements. Could my t be telling me when my iron is low?

See an ENT. Unlike tinnitus, ENTs do know how to diagnose and treat ETD.

...inflamed for the past 1.5 years. - No I haven’t had any procedures where metal was placed, unless dental fillings count? I only have these on the bottom teeth (top ones are all white fillings). - Known allergies are: nickel, cobalt, latex and gluten. I believe these started a few years ago.

Yeah im on prednisone and strong nasal stuff. Hoping it clears up. Waiting to see ENT. I do suffer with blocked nose since birth.
