Hey guys, I have pretty debilitating tinnitus. But I have been due to get surgery on my deviated septum for about a year now and I have been throwing it off because of tinnitus. My deviated septum is unrelated to my tinnitus which was caused by noise. I was wondering if it is safe to get this...

I’m at my parents place and my neighbors seem to do some sort of yard work every single day. Whether leaf blowing or lawn mowing or something, there is always some sort of noises. I close my windows but I’m wondering if exposure to noises like that through a window are dangerous?

Hey guys, I was talking on the phone on speaker yesterday but I couldn't hear the person on the other end. I took it off speaker briefly and put the phone by my good ear on low volume but with my luck my phone's low battery alert went off right by my ear which was extremely loud and caused me...

Hello everyone, I would appreciate some advice. I’m going through a catastrophic spike right now that is coupled with some noise distortion (I have experienced this in the past as well, but it comes and goes. It’s very bad now). On Thursday, my class played a documentary. It was very loud, I...

Hey everyone; Yesterday I woke up with a clogged ear and pain. It progressively got worse throughout the day and the clogged feeling made my hearing feel muffled. I’ve never had an ear infection before, but I assume this is one because of the symptoms and because I'm just coming off the flu...

Tinnitus is so debilitating. This morning I went to IHOP with some friends for the first time in six months. I was having a great time and the sound level was quite pleasant—I didn’t find the sound level uncomfortable in any way. But, as a precaution less than halfway through I put in some...

My tinnitus is 100% noise-induced, so I know that my somatic elements have to do something with auditory nerve inflammation. Dr. Minbo Shim (not trying to start controversy, he was simply the only person who could give me an answer as to what was going on---the rest of my doctors tried to blame...

Hi, I have had tinnitus that has frankly been debilitating for five months. I really want to improve, but I keep getting setbacks that have been unavoidable (roommate dropping milk carton on tile flooring, crazy woman screaming in ear inside hotel). I have been avoiding all noisy venues to the...

Yesterday, as I was exiting the elevator in my hotel a woman outside the elevator screamed directly into my ear as I placed my first step out. I didn't have earplugs in, as I figured I was safe inside the hotel as it is never noisy and the elevator is very quiet. Immediately, my tinnitus spiked...

Hey guys, My tinnitus spiked after noise exposure two months ago. The first instance of noise exposure was due to loud music in a car, but a few days later a car alarm went off right as I walked by it. I think my left ear has 80% recovered at this point, but my right ear, which was the ear...

Hey guys. I've had tinnitus for around three years now. I got it after loud noise exposure at a party right before I started college, but I was lucky enough that after my onset, my tinnitus faded to the background(after about a month and a half), to the point where I often forgot it existed. I...
