    If One More Person Tells Me to Tune It Out and Listen to the Tinnitus I Will Scream!

    People tell me to just ignore it all that time and every time I want to slap them in the mouth. It's an insult and just shows the lack of sympathy. I've been told by ENTs, Neurologists, General Physicians, name it.

    Tinnitus from a Slap on April 7th, 2019

    I have been taking this blood pressure medicine for the last 2.5 months. I'm sure this didn't help me. My doctor knew I had tinnitus from the slap on April 7th too. WTF... Check out the link below. Lots of people have it from HCTZ...

    Setback After Daughter Slapped Me on My Ear Twice!

    In my opinion the slap with plug in couldn’t damage your ears ! Now it just too recent you so afraid of it getting worse that you overreact (we all do !) Prednisone will work ( or not )for damaged ears ,but you didn’t damage anything !! It will go back to baseline ! Jeremy

    Can Tinnitus Spikes Subside After Months?

    Out of curiosity how hard were you hit? I was hit a while ago on the side of my face by accident and my T immediately spiked and it lasted for 2-3 weeks before going back down. It wasn't even a very hard slap or so it seemed at the time.

    Tinnitus from Conjunctivitis

    Hey there @AnonymousHamster - We have a lot in common, I use a CPAP machine as well. I didn't know the filters could go bad, glad you got it fixed. Yet another thing in common.

    My Ear Started Ringing After I Slapped It (I Thought There Was a Mosquito Near My Ear)

    My tinnitus started after a small slap to my ear. That was on 4-7-2019. I still have tinnitus. Go to an ENT tomorrow if the ringing is still there.

    Changed My Mind on My Tinnitus

    A real eye opener that for you and for us. This T makes us look too internally and maybe hearing things like this puts things into real perspective. Was having a tough day today and like you this is a slap and wake up call. Thanks for sharing

    Slap-Induced Tinnitus

    I really feel sorry and am saddened by this kind of story. A single slap causes a life-time night mare. Reminding the people of the WORLD.... please...please be very gentle to our ears. They are very fragile. Wishing you live a normal life and habituate to the tinnitus very soon. God bless !

    Tinnitus from a Slap When 6-7 Men Attacked Me and My Friend

    Is the Thought of Tinnitus Getting Worse Scarier Than Your Actual Tinnitus Level Right Now?

    I think this is common to most young people... I also had this feeling. Bad things happen to other people. Until one day when they happen to you. It's a rude slap in the face.

    It Doesn't Matter How Bad Your Tinnitus Is, You Can Heal from It... I Have

    Oh man, I was on Lexapro for 7 weeks and had the same issues. Slowly disappeared, but EF those pills. So many people are stuck with T now. I've seen forums here where people use antidepressants to try and cope with having T and I just want to slap them. It's what caused mine!!!

    Perforated Ear Drum

    Hi... welcome ... I am really sorry to hear your story. Our ears are very sensitive (especially ear drum). If the hitting force of the slap is strong then non-direct-impacted ear will also be affected.

    Can a Slap Cause Hearing Damage?

    Yes, it can cause permanent hearing damage. I was slapped in the ear by my mentally unstable ex while I was turned away and not paying attention. The slap caused a large rupture in my eardrum. That was well over a year ago and I still have tinnitus and hearing loss at high frequencies.

    Recent Tinnitus Increase, Feeling Really Hopeless

    A tumor is highly unusual, no need to worry there :) I was referring to things like TMJ or muscle strain.

    Is Melatonin Definitely Safe? It Won't Exacerbate Tinnitus?

    High Pitched Sound Only in Absolute Silence

    Hi, I had tinnitus since 2 years in the right ear. Then I slapped myself with my hand on that ear 3 times, but not as hard as I can. But now I think it becomes worse. Can a simple slap like this damage the ear permanently? There was no damage on the eardrum, the ENT said a week later.

    Tinnitus at New Heights: Clonazepam Withdrawal Combined with Slap on the Ear

    Could be either. Both can cause worse tinnitus. What does your doctor think? I don't think you should, but I'd listen to your doctor. I think things will improve for you when you get rid of all these nasty benzos out of your system.
