You are so lucky.Wish we were too

...for before you noticed a difference? I have been doing both routinely for 3 weeks and no difference. ENT threw me out of our 2.5 minute appointment after declaring I had allergies. I knew it was BS, but decided to follow his nasal spray/antihistamine protocol anyway but I am thinking of...

Apparently I have chronic sinuses, blocked tube from throat and ears and swollen big tonsils. Hoping with all the meds it clears up better. he said something to do with allergies to me.

I have the same allergies. Are you taking Claritin too? Did your allergist discuss allergy shots? I’m currently taking Claritin and using Flonase, but may do allergy shots.

I do think there's a link between spring allergies and tinnitus. Mine is always worse in the spring, it's worse this spring than every, and for the first time I've been having other allergy symptoms - gagging, congestion, etc that get worse if I spend time outdoors, and others have reported a...

Hi, I highly recommend allergy shots. I have fairly severe seasonal allergies which are held in check through injections. Most importantly, I avoid having to use dangerous medications like anti histamines. As an added bonus about 20 years ago, allergy shots cured my migraine headaches, which...

Hi, I used to have migraines, but they were a cured by allergy shots. Apparently, in some cases, migraines can be caused by allergies. In any case, there are many different and fairly new medications for migraines. Do online research to see which list tinnitus as a side effect. Good luck.

I have allergies. I was getting sinus infections quite often so the doctor told me to use Flonase. I'm use it every morning and it has helped me with no change to my T.

Yes I have seasonal allergies all year long. Oak, grass, mold, etc. I take Allegra, Flonase, and Astepro. Sinuses are clear on all scans. Blood work was good. Facial/TMJ pain has improved in the last month since starting splints 5 months ago. (7/8 to a 1/3). Headaches have improved too. Sleep...

If you don’t work in a noisey work environment that would cause you spikes, than you shouldn’t be wearing hearing protection there. It might have to do with allergies. I have talked many times while wearing hearing protection and have not had issues as long as you weren’t screaming.

MaryB123, I would see your doctor regarding sleep also do you have allergies like pollen as that can spike tinnitus also. Another could be if you grind your teeth and cause pressure on your jaw joint. love glynis

People with diabetes date. People with severe allergies date. Paraplegics date. People with Aspergers date. People with sleep apnea date. People with chronic pain date. If you have tinnitus and want to date you can give it a shot. Sickness does not make you inherently unworthy of love.

I should also probably add I suffer from seasonal allergies (hay fever) each summer and my T began in May as allergy symptoms started. I've been taking nasal spray and antihistamines for it since.

Ive think so. Ive read several times about peoples description of their T and they add "I have (or had) a cold, allergies, etc..." And the sounds they describe are very similar to mine.

...your tubes are a bit clogged. This would make your tinnitus louder and it happens to me whenever I come down with a cold/virus, or when my allergies are particularly bad. In your case, it's hard to say what the cause is. It could be any number of things including the vaccine. Who here has...

I have not yet tried it because my allergies are currently behaving, but my ENT advised using a nasal saline spray. Saline sprays are safe enough to use for infants, so I think they're very mild.

...recovering from incidental benadryl overdose that occured after I ingested a larger than normal dose for severe allergic reaction to seasonal allergies. I also have a degree in sound design and have extensively researched the psychological and physiological properties of sound and the human...

Have tried all of those, but did not do anything for me. My allergies are really bad. My symptoms are probably worsening due to other health issues as well:(

...for it. There are societies that exist for people with aspergers and paraplegics. Diabetes is a non-issue compared to tinnitus tbh. Severe allergies isn’t an invisible illness, people are more likely to understand that peanuts can kill you than moderate noise causing pain. This is why I am...

No do not disturb your body. I never get the flu shot, due to never get a cold, but i do have severe allergies. And I take stuff for that. I would just take care of yourself.

It could be anxiety, but maybe it's allergies. Have you tried nosespray? Your doctor can prescribe you steroid nosespray, it might help for you. I understand how you feel, please don't kill yourself. Things will get better.

Crackling is generally due to fluid in the middle ear after colds, allergies. Please don't worry, people have had tinnitus for years without losing their hearing. Try to identify your anxious thoughts and challenge them. x

ok thank you!!! and helps you sleep! my allergies are prob making my tinnitus worse. yuck. damn mold! can't wait till winter! I always have issues this time of year. all this yucky post nasal drip and Eustachian Tube drainage.

Flonase is typical prescribed to help keep your sinuous cavity's clear and reduce the effects of allergies. After using over a period of 6 months there was no change either positive or negative on Tinnitus levels.

Do you still have fluid in your ears?

Yes they are acting up. I've been very congested but it doesn't seem to tie into the humming that I can tell. I also think mine is tied to noise as before this started back I did have a couple of loud incidents around me. My humming is worse on my bad side (right) and I can barely feel it on...

I have allergies and recently got off all medicine, I was taking xyzal and fluticasone propionate... Does anyone have any recommendation for allergy medication or nasal spray that wont have any bad side effect on my tinnitus?

...I just joined Tinnitus Talk and discovered a wealth of information. I have had tinnitus since 1950, age 10. From birth I have had allergies, hay fever, sinus problems and back then in the 40's, 50's and 60's, Penicillin was the cure for everything! Sometimes it is really bad, and then it...

@Ed209 hi Ed. Are your allergies the cause of ETD/T? Have you had allergy testing? I suspect ETD and nasal drip etc as the cause of my T. All started with ear fullness.

I am getting ready for seasonal allergies that I get every year. What do you guys use to keep your ears/sinuses clear? My Ear doctor suggested Flonase. Do you agree. Do you have anything better. Thanks

Well, Flonase is a bunch of steroids that reduce inflammation, specifically to reduce and/or eliminate allergy symptoms. I used to use it in the summer for my allergies... now I use a different product, but the general makeup/ingredients are the same.

@Jonny Price, Welcome to Tinnitus Talk. Keep a diary on how your ear pressure is doing in case you see an ENT in the future. Allergies can cause extra fluid in your eustachian tubes and post nasal drip at night will find its way in your tubes. If you get a mucous taste in your mouth, that...

...December as well but they said it was normal and said that maybe my Eustachian Tube was slightly inflamed but never confirmed it. I do have allergies but usually only in spring I haven’t had any sneezing or congestion however every so often I get the sinus pressure in my nose but they said it...

I said a prayer for you today. Hope you are feeling better. Keep pushing through your days... I always feel worst from T when I have a cold or bad allergies.... but better days are ahead. :)

Hi @Gin, Never heard of Menieres causing hives. Allergies can spike tinnitus so Menieres could be triggered also . Hope the antihistamine soon gets the hives under control and maybe find the trigger . Love glynis x

...of trauma until 7-14 days, then it will have done all the damage it can do. Yes, some improve even after months although that suggests another additional cause for the tinnitus. For example, allergies? Some also get temporary effects like with benzo. For most, myself included, nada effects.

How long does it usually take before it calms down?

...low-pitched sounds in the environment, for example my PC fans. So I can hear the same sound patterns but it feels like it is coming from the external noise sources and not from my ear. I also couldn't find the reason for the ETD. No apparent neck or jaw issues. Also no infection and no allergies.

Do understand that the ears are very delicate and can take time to heal. Even when we finish taking an antibiotic it can still work and stay in our system for a few days or so. I get this type of issue, quite a bit and it has a lot to do with my allergies.

I have very bad allergies and sinuses. It's been 2 months for me and finally feel a little better. The ringing is still there but it has decreased somewhat. Believe me I felt horrible the first month.

Yeah I’m going to go back again and see if that’s makes him realise I’m being serious !! I don’t have any allergies and I don’t grind my teeth either but I have had sleep problems since I was younger, the tinnitus has just increased those problems. It’s annoying because ive tried literally every...

That is nice of you. I wish I can go have fun. I have Severe Hyperacusis and it sucks.

There is no 100% relations between hearing loss and tinnitus. So many things can affect that ears and cause pressures and possibly tinnitus. Allergies is a HUGE culprit. I never had my ear pressures and head pressures till i got my first ever sinus infection/allergies in 2009. Now it's a part of...

Honestly, I went through it all. MRIs, blood tests, EEG, ECG and everything. It never pointed to anything but did keep me distracted and indirectly helped me cope with my tinnitus. Just get yourself checked up. If everything is in place, you know this tinnitus isn't a sign of anything bad. It...

Stress, allergies, poor sleep and a tired immune system is a perfect t storm. I woke up with various loud noises. ...12 weeks ago. Sucks. Emotionally drained. Melatonin has helped and sleep is #1 on the list.

hi calin i think benedryl is an H1 antihistamine, used for allergies etc (sleep aid sometimes) and has a diferent mode of action than the H2s...i have not had problems with the H1 s...i think

Hi, I have been prescribed Lecrolyn Sine eye drops for allergies. Started Wednesday evening and am supposed to take one drop in each eye every morning and evening. Today my tinnitus is noticeably higher and my ears are buzzing like crazy constantly. Does anybody know if this medicine is...

I used Nasonex for a month and the low-pitched tinnitus gradually disappeared.

Hi @meeb, If you have a sinus problem or allergies you can make extra mucous and while you sleep it can go down the back of your throat and also into your eustation tubes causing problems. Love glynis

500mg should be fine.

ialso have allergies to dust mites and mold... take meds... dunno if this is causing my tinnitus or not I just got watery eyes and tinnitus and stiff neck when all mine started.. thinking mine is from meds..

Yes lots of people have success on the Carnivore diet with Tinnitus, I think it's because it gives the body the ability to balance itself without having to deal with allergies and anti nutrients. But not all carnivore diets are the same and not all Tinnitus is the same.

...it go away. I've also used low dose Diazepam (2x2 mg in a day) and it also shortened the episodes. Recently, he gave me a nose spray for allergies because the MEM was acting up again (not 24-hour long episodes but sometimes a few hours long) and he said it might be due to inflammation and...

Hi Lane, hope you're well. Just wondering if you're still taking Quercetin?

It must be different in other countries as in the uk Prednisalone is only used for Allergies and breathing problems and not given out for tinnitus by doctors. I have used Prednisalone many times for sever asthma. love glynis

@AfroSnowman, Welcome to Tinnitus Talk. A few things to check- Ear wax Virus TMJ Anaemia Allergies/sinuses Teeth grinding Glue ear Hearing loss Stress Neck problems MRI to rule out other problems Keep posting for support and make some friends along the way. love Glynis

Most likely wax. Seasonal allergies and colds always clog my ears and when they're clogged I get those pops. It's the wax moving around and little pops of air getting through. If you're sure your ears are clean, I don't know...

...of months ago. I am 40 years old and have never had any ear issues, save for the occasional ear pop after blowing nose when I have bad allergies. As much as I try not to obsess over it, the idea of it eventually going away is like a fantasy. I am also not so optimistic about going to a doctor...
