Took Ibuprofen since I am sick, did not spike my tinnitus, thank the lord

My right ear tinnitus just spiked but not that much, will avoid using headphones for the time being.

Getting used to my tinnitus now, and working out more to build up my mental health.

I can confirm that drugs are the culprit for my tinnitus. I realized if I take specific drugs, it worsens it. So I will try to avoid it.

I realized that I am getting small temporary spikes more often now. probably because my hair cells are messed up? lol

This week was a very stressful week. I thought my tinnitus has gotten louder, but it is just my PC fans spinning lol. I am getting all crazy

I hope everyone has a wonderful day and stay safe

I can confirm that the MRI did not cause a spike for me. I guess I am lucky. And the loud trains have no impact on my tinnitus.

Done an MRI today and it seems that I did not have any spikes! I consider this a win

Oh wait….my tinnitus just dropped. And I do not hear the morse code sound… such a strange body I have but yayyyy

Back to square one now to habituation. I hate myself for this. Getting frustrated over a drug.

WOOPSIE! I hate drugs now. Made my tinnitus worse.

Still sleeping well.

This stupid morse code noise is really annoying and disturbing. Luckily I get tired and sleep easily, so I suppose it is not bad.

My tinnitus spike is starting to diminish every day, peace is near?

Starting to hear morse code sounds, so annoying, and disturbing when sleeping.

Pinched my nerve, my neck hurts now. Ooof day for me.

So if some may have not known, I may have gotten Neomycin ear drops when I had an ear infection on my right ear last month and it may have made my tinnitus worse, but I discontinued it. It turns out that I have not had hearing loss after having an audiometry evaluation. So I have 3 questions...

Today 1/29/2022, I believe I may have made good progress. Despite the spike from last week, it does not seem to bother me as much anymore since I am too preoccupied with school work. Although I may have some other personal problems, I believe that I am ok? Plus the fans from my PC are loud...

Hello, I also had an ear infection last month. I am still hearing the tinnitus. But my situation is different from yours because your doctor only prescribed you Penicillin which is good since it does not really cause or worsen tinnitus. I am here because my tinnitus spiked from ototoxic...

Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. Keep on Living.

12/17/2021 was when I first had my ear infection on my right ear. 2 weeks after the infection, my tinnitus seems to be barely noticeable and I can sleep. On 12/20/2022, I developed a bad spike. I do not know the reason, maybe it is from the Tylenol I have taken or perhaps my anxiety made it...

Hello, I hope you are doing well. I am unsure about the condition since I am not trained. I have a different condition, so I cannot offer you an explanation. But if I were to guess, I think it might have to do something with your Eustachian tubes or maybe it is just some change in pressure in...

My incident was that I took Cortisporin Otic for my ear infection on my right ear and some of the ear drops got into my eardrum which may have damaged my inner ear and caused the tinnitus, but I have not faced any substantial hearing loss since I discontinued the drops. Also, I recently...

My tinnitus was caused by ototoxic drugs and slightly impaired my hearing, but I can still hear most stuff. I hope all can recover from this terrible condition.

Ty for replying. As for the ear infection issue, I am unsure if my tinnitus is permanent. But the next time I went to my PCP, he checked my eardrum and said that there are 2 holes in it. And he said to keep on using the Cortisporin Otic solution to prevent any further infections from happening...

I will consider that option. I do not go to loud concerts or even listen to music at a really high volume. I guess I can also cover my ears whenever the train puts on the breaks. Plus my tinnitus is not that unbearable, so as long as I take care and be more aware of my surroundings by avoiding...

Hello all, I hope all of you are doing well. Since I am fairly new to tinnitus, I guess this will be the first question I will ask. I was wondering about your thoughts on noise-canceling headphones and whether or not they can help tinnitus and prevent hearing loss? Although my tinnitus...

Thank you for responding. This is a new challenge for me. At least I can sleep despite having this annoying sound in my head. I have no idea what caused my tinnitus spike, but whatever it is, I will try to stay healthy as I can.

Trying to be me despite all of the hardships

A few weeks ago, I got an ear infection (otitis media) on my right ear and was prescribed Amoxicillin and Cortisporin Otic. The medication worked out fine, the infection was gone, but I was left with some small buzzing sound. Then after a few weeks later, I took Tylenol for only 2 days...
