    Nose Spray Solved My Tinnitus!

    Dear All, I'm late to the party (it's Feb. 2020) but I've been taking an allergy nose spray with great results. Started Friday and my ringing in gone now and it's Monday. Cause of my tinnitus: ENT area inflammation. I was thinking for long term maintenance, I can use a saline nose spray twice...

    Scored 100% on My Hearing Tests — Still Have Ringing (and Lots of Questions)

    Hi Denise! Yes, dry noses seem to be a particular cause of T -- for me esp. It makes sense since the whole ENT system is connected and inflammation spreads from one part to the next. A dry nose leads to inflammed sinuses and the whole system just falls like dominoes after that. The good news...

    Dear Bill, Thanks for the positive news! I feel I am improving little by little each day with fewer set backs overall. I hope to be well rid of this in a few months time. If it takes a year, and it still happens, I am fine with that as well. Best, Dee w.

    Dear All, Again, I appreciate all the feedback. My new theory is that the air so dry in my new place I just moved to in January, it has caused inflammation within my entire ENT system which has led to my eustachian tubes going haywire and that in turn led to the tinnitus I have had for 3 weeks...

    Dear All Thank you for all of your info Denise & Liza. I appreciate your support and your stories. So I'm at week three and I still have random pressure builds from time to time and just had some random pain in my right ear today so I am getting steroids tomorrow. I can't wait any longer for my...

    Wow! I had no idea that digestive issues could cause the inflammation that could lead to our issues, but it makes sense as everything in our bodies, and I mean everything, is connected. Sometimes this is "for the better," but when you're sick, it's for "the worse." Personally, I don't have any...

    Dear All, Thanks for the feedback. Yes, my audiogram only went to 8 kHz. In the last week, I've seen some improvement but it has been a coaster of sorts. I had my best day yesterday, but today it feels like I am back to where I was before that improvement. I've read elsewhere that tinnitus...

    Can (Minor) Nose Inflammation Really Cause Tinnitus?

    Dear All, This is my second post, but I wanted to quickly ask: Can minor inflammation cause the endless ringing I've had for a week now? I went to the doctor yesterday and I have no audio damage and all he could sense was minor nose inflammation that may be irritating my eustachian...

    Dear All, Thank you for having me. I understand in the grand scheme of things, my issue seems minor compared to a lot of others situations, but I have no obvious cause for this AND I still have tinnitus going on a week now. My tinnitus is: Very high pitched and constant like being next to an...
