I live in a rented townhouse. For the past week, contractors have been working on one of the bedrooms. There has been loud noise, but I have been able to avoid it for the most part by staying in my bedroom. However, this morning, I stepped out briefly, and at the same exact time, there were...

Actually, I have spiked from the shower before. This was an unusually loud and long spike. Lately, it seems like I am reacting to a lot of different things - sounds of course, foods, different products, medications, etc. That's why I thought of the shampoo. I've been having a really difficult...

I live in a townhouse and some new neighbors are using a ton of air freshener in their bathrooms and other areas. It has gotten into my bathrooms and into the rest of my townhouse. It's everywhere and I am highly sensitive to them to the point of them making my tinnitus worse. I know there are...

No, I don't use earplugs in the shower or when I use the faucet. I probably should but I was told to try to get used to "normal" sounds. However, I just took a shower earlier and I'm starting to worry about the shampoo. I didn't really think anything about it since I've used it for quite a long...

I used Parodontax toothpaste last night for the first time in a while. I noticed an immediate worsening of my tinnitus that hasn't gotten better. Does anyone know if stannous fluoride or any inactive ingredients in toothpaste can cause or worsen tinnitus? It's more unbearably loud now than it...

I had to sleep with the heat on last night because it was extremely cold. It makes noise but not anything that I would consider overly loud. I woke up this morning and my tinnitus is much worse - loud hissing in both ears and more tones. I'm terrified that the central heating unit has damaged...

Do you think harder or tough foods can cause damage to the ear and cause hearing loss? I was already in the middle of a spike from noise. I'm so upset with myself for eating something that wasn't soft. I'm terrified because it's never been this bad before.

Does anyone know if chewing something tough can cause damage to the ear and therefore worse tinnitus? I ate some ground beef yesterday that was really chewy and now my tinnitus is at the worst level its ever been. I was already dealing with a spike so I'm worried that this could have damaged...
