    Does Salt Make Tinnitus Worse? Sea Salt vs Table Salt?

    My ear-wax build-up tinnitus spike is getting much better. I can go 2 - 3 days now without noticing my tinnitus, then have a flair up, then another 2 - 3 days. Well, I was on a good run of my tinnitus being at the lower levels before the ear-wax spike, but then I decided to switch my sea salt I...

    Is this possible? My left ear ringing has been really bad today. Whenever I feel actual pain in the ear, I feel it in the left side of my throat. On the other hand the air in my city is absolutely horrid (thanks wildfires!) and just stepping outside tastes like smoke. So maybe my throat is...

    Hello!

    Guess I should introduce myself. 37/m. I've had relatively mild tinnitus for the past 3 years, enough so it never really bothered me except for random but very brief spikes. Two weeks ago I ha a massive spike of noise in my left ear. After 3 days of nausea and headaches and ringing, I went...

    After Ear Wax Removal, How Long Do I Need to Wait for the Ringing to Stop?

    I've had very low level tinnitus since 2015. I was acclimated to it, and I only really heard the ringing intermittently but even then is was quiet. Well, three months ago my left inner ear began itching really bad. I didn't know why. I kept using q-tips and hurt myself. Never again. Anyways...
