So I was at my local airport, it's quite small so only turbo prop planes land here. And only 2-3 spots for them to park. Usually I have no issue flying, but last time our plane was late so we were directed out onto the tarmac when another turbo prop plane was parking less than 10m away... With...

So today I thought I'd pop my ears as my right ear felt dull in hearing. I think it's perforated as when I've previously popped it made a sound like air is passing through every time. This time I had been using ear drops. The combination of air moving through and liquid made a loud squelch...

So I forgot that I had my 16 dB reduction plugs in my pocket when I was waiting in line at a bar. The big speakers were only 6m or so from me with smaller speakers dotted round the whole place. It was loud enough that you had to raise your voice in someone's ear for them to hear you, but...

So a few days ago I got an outer ear infection that has caused my right ear (worse ear already) to swell shut. The painkillers I was prescribed aren't doing shit for the pain and for the past two nights I've woken up multiple times due to the pain. My tinnitus has also spiked in that ear to the...

So I ended up in a situation where I was exposed to somewhere in 100 dB range for about 45 mins. I was annoyed at myself for not leaving and just powering through. Now my tinnitus has spiked moderately (but not extremely) and I'm really pissed off because I may or may not have damaged my...

Hello So my workplace has noise levels of around 70 dB constantly with regular spikes of 90-100 dB due to mishaps and constant clanging of metal on metal. There is also one machine that is used every 5 mins or so that can do about 105 dB for 1 second each time it's used. I think I have mild...

So I've had tinnitus for about 4.5 months now as the result of an ear infection. My reaction was probably the opposite of most people here. When I first heard the noise I remained calm and assumed it would go away with the infection. The infection cleared a long time ago so I'm beginning to lose...

So sometimes on the way home from work when walking a loud truck or van will pass (very close due to having to drive in the cycle lane.... Roadworks smh) Once or twice it's been load enough for me to think oh shit and want to cover my ears. I never end up doing so as it only lasts a few seconds...

So in my first post here, I explained how my tinnitus came on during an ear infection in both ears. I now remember the first instant I heard T was as I put some warm olive oil in the infected right ear. I failed to state this in my original post. I put cold olive oil in my other ear as that also...

Neighbors started construction on their house, conveniently just the same day exam period started. I usually sit outside to study as the wind hides my tinnitus. However now I can't because all I hear is hammers and other tools. If I sit inside they are annoying during study and I can hear my...

So I've had tinnitus for 2 months now (changes intensity when moving jaw) ever since I had a middle ear infection. Probably the worse ear infection I've had, and the first one I've had since I was very young. It was in the right ear and then moved to the left. Lucky the left ear recovered the...
