I have allergies. Today I was around a lot of dust for a long time. Now my tinnitus is like a 20/10. It has never been this loud. It is completely out of control. Can allergies really have that much affect on tinnitus? I'm taking medication for my allergies. Or maybe it has nothing to do with it. It is so loud I am scared. It keeps getting louder. I don't understand what is going on.
