    Mild Tinnitus for Eight Years, Worsened by Going to a Club without Earplugs

    @TJ670, I am in a similar position to you; I had tinnitus for 12 years, recently made a stupid decision to go dancing to release high-stress levels in my life, and woke up to a significant increase in tinnitus and some hearing loss. I'm slowly getting used to the new tinnitus, but the hearing...

    Thought I Had Beaten Tinnitus — Now It's Back with a Vengeance — I Won't Give Up!

    Sorry for the late reply. Yes I flew to the UK. The flight wasn't too bad at all. According to the soundmeter app on my phone, the sound level was averaging at 65 db. In any case I was wearing my earplugs for the entire flight except when eating, and even then wasn't too loud. I was flying an...

    Why Is Tinnitus Not More Common? Loud Bars, Concerts, Restaurants...

    This is something I have asked myself many times as well. I mean sure I have exposed myself several times to very loud sounds and its no real surprise I have T, but I know people who go to clubs and gigs night after night with ni hearing protection, always have their earphones/headphones on and...

    Thought I Had Beaten Tinnitus — Now It's Back with a Vengeance — I Won't Give Up!

    Hi @Sash Yup our ears are compromised and accumulated damage really adds up for us. At the time we think "oh this isnt too bad" but the consequences strike later. Give your ears a rest for a while and maybe avoid thinking of music festivals for now. I know it must be hard, I have been facing...

    Reaching Out

    Hi all I've had tinnitus for 5 years now. It started when as a 20 year old I finally got to see my musical heroes, Judas Priest, perform live. It disturbed me a little at first, but I soon got used to it within months and barely ever noticed it. Fast forward 2 years to my 22nd birthday. I was...

    Sudden Ongoing Almost Unbearable Tinnitus in Right Ear?

    It did subside eventually after 3-4 days. I should point out that I have had T for 5 years now, so to clarify the spike eventually subsided to my baseline T

    Sudden Ongoing Almost Unbearable Tinnitus in Right Ear?

    Almost the exact thing happened to me about 5 hours ago except in the left ear. Might be noise induced, I was walking outdoors where there were many loud planes flying overhead earlier in the afternoon . I put on some ear phones to see if there was a huge loss of hearing, but it doesn't seem...
