Sorry for your daughter. It is more likely to be a result of the ear syringing than ear drops because even Ciprofloxacin, which is extremely ototoxic, as an ear drop cannot do much in terms of ototoxicity unless there is a hole in the ear drum that the ear drop gets inside the ear from. It is...

...till now). Well what normally happens is i feel the air rush back in and i can hear again but this time that didn't happen so i tried syringing a few more times but all i did was make me dizzy. So i noticed the next day that my ear still felt clogged/full and the ringing was way louder and...

Ear syringing has caused T to many ppl ..I think since you had T it probably got aggrevated by syringing ..did it happen within 24 hours or so after syringing ?

Some were syringing, others had microsuction done...

Thanks! But I thought syringing was bad.

Yeah when @BobDigi says syringing he means the method which is stated in the article where water is pumped in at a controlled pressure. In England we still call it syringing for some reason.

Hi rob can you please tell me if your tinnitus has improved as I also got my tinnitus from syringing at home...thanks

I didn't notice the word "syringing" in the original post. There are many people on this forum who got T as a result of syringing. Others had their T get louder as a result of syringing. Many people have it done and are ok afterwards. However, if I were you, I would never take this risk...

...audio through headphones, earbuds, AirPods or headsets, it's quite possible that the original cause of her tinnitus was noise induced. Ear syringing can also cause tinnitus, especially when it is not administered correctly or the patient did not apply ear drops (olive oil) to each ear, 3 x a...

The rest of your post seems a bit vitriolic, but this is just factually wrong dawg. Syringing is loud AF and causes tinnitus through hearing damage. Plenty of threads about it on this site, and if you lack that basic understanding you probably shouldn't be talking down to people (even if they...

Noise induced tends to improve if it isn't from long-term exposure from what I believe. I'm not sure about self-syringing though, or syringing. Every case I've read on that doesn't tend to like completely fade when it is 'mechanical-induced.'

Did that spike eventually subside?

Ear syringing and irrigation aren't the same thing. Ear syringing is not used anymore due to higher risks. The old saying of getting my ears syringed these days usually refers to irrigation. Irrigation on the other hand is using a pressurized water to rinse the wax out of the ears that is a...

@Toxer95 did they use an actual syringe, or was a machine used to pump water in? Actual literal "syringing" is not supposed to be done anymore I believe, at least in the UK. The modern way is to do it with an irrigation machine which uses less force to put the water in. But the term...

...wax impaction, my eardrum was only partially obscured, the audiologist even mentioned it was not very bad, but the doctor wanted to do the syringing before deciding what to do. He did do the syringing, all the syringing did was give me a bit brighter hearing in that ear (more high freqs)...

not recently. But I noticed a worsening of the T before the ear syringing. I did the ear syringing due to wax buildup. It wasn't that loud.

@Farida, I would definitely opt to have the earwax removed via curette.

Why doesn't the ENT remove wax manually? There is a tool for that and it makes no noise at all.

"Ear syringing unsafe and doesn't work, health chiefs warn" https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/11/27/ear-syringing-unsafe-doesnt-work-health-chiefs-warn/ (thanks @GregCA for initially posting this)

I am shocked they would preform such barbaric practices. Ear Syringing (Caloric Test) and Microsuction with of course Acoustic Reflex, ECOG, CVEMP, etc can and will cause hearing damage.

From personal experience I don't recommend syringing at all. The best way to remove wax is with a curette, I don't know why doctors waste our times with microsuction and with syringing when these methods are really invasive.

...day, when the noise drops its surprising how it lifts your mood , just one option you might like to consider next time your ears ever need syringing again I always go for the micro suction its said to be a lot safer than syringing I have heard that syringing can even trigger or aggravate...

I strongly advise that you stop syringing, the only way that I get my ears cleaned is by a quailfied ENT manually under a scope. No syringing and NEVER NEVER with suction. Louie

Please, absolutely refuse if your ENT will try to remove your earwax with microsuction or syringing. The best option is manual cleaning.

Some more information (perhaps it is of use), the ENT doctor called just now and identified 4 possible causes. The ear syringing I mentioned, (genetic) hearing loss, slight elevated blood pressure and TMJ issues. I proposed that it's likely the ear syringing, mainly, since it started pretty much...

I got tinnitus and hyperacusis from syringing about 2.5 months ago. The nurse said that it's not ideal, but you can do the syringing without eardrops. I'm someone that has hard earwax. My tinnitus started 5 hours later that night. I've tried to read many posts here on this subject. There's so...

From what I've heard olive oil drops are alright. With syringing (flushing water) I believe the problem is that it's shot into your ear with pressure, and this can have the same effect as acoustic trauma (or potentially mess up something physical in the ear that's too small for the ENT to see...

@Reinier Has your mothers new frequency from the syringing improved?

I don't think there is any way to remove impacted ear wax except by syringing, suction vacuum, or an ear picking tool, or is there? If I were to choose between the lesser evils, I would pick water syringing.

My right ear which had earwax syringing yesterday at my GP office is still loud. I checked the forum discussions in Tinnitus Talk. The one who had several earwax syringing indicates that it will subside in a few months. I will stay positive and try to ignore it. :)

I didn't do syringing. Sutter general hospital using a spray bottle now. So cleaning out ear wax can cause t? I saw somewhere it can be temporary. I'm sure this isn't true after reading numerous stories about T..Anyone experience this?

A manual clean is a safe and quiet procedure. I never allow micro suction or syringing of my ears.

syringing can go wrong and damage hearing.

Yeah I wouldn't know anything about getting a syringe in my ears. Thanks for educating me.

I am pretty sure they are. If the risk has to do with an increase in tinnitus, please post that link here. I remember reading multiple posts about people regretting syringing and microsuction, but I don't remember anyone here regretting the use of manual tools.

...than later. I have an appointment with an osteopath at an ENT office on Friday afternoon; I’m not expecting much other than “damage from syringing is unlikely” and an audiologist appointment, but who knows? I don’t think I’ve lost any hearing and there’s no fullness or ETD symptoms, so...

I got my tinnitus from syringing and I don't consider it acoustic trauma. It wasn't loud enough to be considered as such.

Healing for tinnitus can be non-linear. Mine is a roller coaster, but it's much better on average than it was a few months ago.

Goodnight @brooklynfall. May you get a great night's sleep and wake up refreshed with renewed faith for your future.

...I'd feel like in six months, wondering what my tinnitus would be then. And the answer was: healed, for the most part. Until that stupid syringing, though...but still. Healed! And now I'm writing a post, sort of like a journal entry, wondering what this new, almost scarier tinnitus that almost...

...got a little louder recently, went to the gp and they saw a decent bit of wax, with wax covering my right eardrum. He booked me in for ear syringing 5 days later, and instructed me to use ear drops beforehand. I was all for it until I started researching ear syringing and reading the worrying...

Hi DominicZ, I've been researching others who have had tinnitus start after syringing. My situation is similar and just started earlier this month. Did any doctor's mention anything about Eustachian tube dysfunction? I also have no hearing loss, but all my symptoms seem related to Eustachian...

I think this is a common thing of syringing damaging the inner ear. I hope it fades.

That's how the founder of this community developed his tinnitus. By syringing...

...and can cause a blockage of wax by pushing the wax further into the ear. I used regular olive oil for cooking a couple of nights before syringing and that wasn't a problem. The idea was also to soften the wax to make syringing easier, but chances are that if you use it for seven nights that...

@dpdx, microsuction, manually ,Syringing. love glynis

Yeah you're right. What else do people call it?

Hello, I'm new to this community. I can't tell when I got my tinnitus, I don't even remember when I first acknowledged it's existance. It's maybe 3 months now...? My tinnitus is mild, I can hear it only in silence, which isn't that bad. I was always a calm person, never liked parties or loud...

syringing ears make t worse? I lightly syringed my ear because I have a random, what I believe is a nail polish chip by my ear drum. Yikes

I drink cat's claw tea i find it help my anxiety and it states helps with inflammations. Mine was due to ear syringing and or the drops they recommended AFTER the syringing which I have recently found out that contain Lidocaine (which has tinnitus as a side effect).

Hi @ChazSpiers, I didn't fully get at which point did your noise in your ears start (I do see however it started this month, so it's very recent). Was it right after the syringing? Or did the syringing "only" hurt, but didn't trigger your tinnitus? Welcome to TT!

Ear syringing is a barbaric and lazy practice that is way too dangerous to be used.

Yea, it was done by the machine you mentioned. It didn't come out at first so it took a little more time, which may be the cause. The left ear took longer than the right, and the T is a little worse too on that side.

Hi Greg, I also just got tinnitus from syringing. I've been trying to get in contact with people who've had this since all my doctors seem to deny that syringing is the cause. It does seem like a relatively rare thing from searching these boards. My tinnitus is actually just the "hear it in...

Just want to say that my tinnitus can be severe and I've had microsuction 3 times and syringing the same without any problems. If eardrops is used 3x a day for 7 to 10 days before the earwax is removed problems won't usually occur. Removing earwax by curette can also cause problems when eardrops...

That was a picture from Frequency Therapeutics website of them administering FX-322 not syringing

...cautious, and not enough is known about the real dangers of doing so, even though the odds are small. You could have opted for just the syringing only, even if it didn't remove all the earwax. I have no idea what the obsession is with wax removal. At the age of 45 I had my ears...

One day after syringing I noticed T in my left ear when I woke up. I didn't persevere this ear with oil. I Only wanted my rightr ear to be syringed, the one which was persevered with oil. Before I even knew it the GP nurse was syringing my not oiled ear.
