    Stapedius/Tensor Tympani Spasming?

    I'm convinced now that the 'fog horn' noise in my one good ear is something to do with stapedius dysfunction/spasm. The noise is so loud it's effectively making me deaf in my good ear, as at times it blocks quieter sound and the sensation something touching/buzzing against the ear drum is very...

    Eardrum Vibrating

    I have this problem. It started some months ago, I assumed it was some kind of wax build up touching ear drum, causing dulled hearing and some kind of irritation of the ear drum but when I went to have wax removed the audiologist said there wasn't any trace of wax at all. The sensation is as if...
