I need to talk to you. In August I followed TERRIBLE ADVICE from a thread here advising that if you had inflamed Eustachian tubes to do a sinus wash and then do the valsalva maneuver to blow the water into your eustachian tubes to wash it out. Well, doing that I accidentally blew too much...

Do you think you might have Eustachian tube dysfunction? Maybe the pressure in your middle ears is unbalanced. You might try holding your nose and gently and i mean GENTLY blowing air until you feel your inner ears inflate (this is called the Valsalva maneuver). I will warn you that it's been...

Since yours is acoustic damage it is likely that you will heal (given that you take care of your ears now and avoid loud places). check out the posts by jjflyman on the forum here. His T went away completely after 18 months. In the meantime try to just mask the noise with things like rain...

The B12 didn't make it worse. I was probably taking too much of it, but I blame the D3 more.

Hi all, If you're not familiar with Keto it is basically the Atkins diet (high fat, low carb). Looking back I realize that I started doing the keto diet around the same time my ears started to first bother me. Combine that with a job I had just started that had me doing long walks from the...

I believe my T is caused by me washing a viral infection from my sinuses into my middle ear. I have a matching high pitched constant tone in my ears that doesn't seem to be dying down much in about 2.5 months. Is there any healing that you've noticed as time goes on or a reduction in the...

Hi glynis. My suspicion is that when I used the saline that it washed the mold I was exposed to from my sinuses to my inner ears. and I can't get my ENT to prescribe me an anti-fungal...it might already be too late now...

I'll take the lack of response as it has just as much chance of healing as audio trauma then. Hopefully ear damage is ear damage and recovery is recovery. In 2 months the only difference I've noticed is that I can stay in small rooms now, before it would feel like the ringing was just...

Hi Ameila, I'm convinced that a sinus wash caused my high pitched T. Have you had any reduction in volume/recovery since you got yours from the same thing?

So I've found a bunch of posts about people recovering from audio induced trauma but I can't find any info on sinus wash induced trauma? Is that worse or more permanent? I've finally settled on the cause of my tinnitus being from the sinus wash I did (as I have NEVER done it before in my life...

REALLY freaked out that this high pitched ringing won't go away. It's been a month and MAYBE dropped from a 10/10 to a 9/10 in volume

Well, if you do, don't be stupid and do it like I did. So apparently you're supposed to lean your head to the side or lean forward. Well, genius that I am, I leaned BACK as I thought that would be the best way to reach everything. Well I did! Just not what I wanted to do.

Thank you all for the kind responses. I'm actually still kinda feverish right now. Thanks Natalier. :) I'll do my best. I believe it was black mold. Even though I had my little surgical mask when we salvaged stuff, I didn't wear one when I showed the mold removal guys what they were...

They gave me a hearing test and say my hearing is in the "normal range" but that I'm not hearing everything. They want me to do an MRI but I think that will show NOTHING like it does for a lot of people. I've got a slight sore throat where my eustachian tubes drain into the throat. That makes...

I REALLY have no idea what happened to my ears. I'm a quiet person and don't listen to loud music but I'm now suffering with high pitched T in both ears. Let me provide a timeline and can anyone tell me what I possibly did because then maybe it can be reversed. Oct 2016: -New upstairs...

So I had what I would now call hyperacusis/low level tinnitus and then I bought the Konftec laser (emLas-520B) and made it worse (constant high pitched ringing that doesn't go away with sound). I need to know how badly I damaged my ears and if there is any chance at recovery of any kind. I...

I thought I read in another thread that you can boil the water in your cochlea with a powerful laser. The laser I have specs are: Laser Wave Length: 808nm LD Laser power: 90mW Ear tip laser power: 63mW Total LD laser power: Infrared 180 mW Are you sure that couldn't fry my ears if I used it...

Hi I'm David, I've always liked the quiet, I lived in a quiet place until my upstairs neighbor sold their place to the asian lady from hell. I didn't know anything was going wrong until she ripped out the carpets and put in tile flooring in her bedroom. Oh and btw, the contractor didn't put...

So I was suffering from what I now realize was more like hyper-acusis (being highly sensitive to to sounds in my ear) and was searching the internet for a cure. I found this forum and followed a thread that recommended the Konftec LLLT. So I ordered one and then used it on and off (20 min...
