Does Your Tinnitus Change with the Season?

[Azariah]

Hi Everybody!

I was wondering if anyone has noticed if their Tinnitus changes with the seasons?

If so, which season is best and which is worst?

(I've recently come upon some obscure but interesting research. I don't want to say more until people reply. The answers people give could give me some more data to help confirm or deny a theory I have.)

It stays the same for me

Yes, absolutely.

Particularly during the transition between autumn to winter and spring to summer. Wind and oncoming rain also drives up the tinnitus.

Summer is the best season for my tinnitus.

No changes what so ever!

Related to TMJ. Yes. In warm environments TMJ pain is less and so is T.
That isn't anything new. My TMJ specialist even joked that I should move to Spain for the heat.

Last three weeks have been crazy, I got a huge spike and I don't know if it's due to weather changes.

At this moment, and since the onset, weather is the one and only thing that changes my tinnitus level. I'm pretty sure that air pressure has some kind of effect on my ears.

Call me "weather guy" : when fleeting tinnitus comes then weather is about to change in the next hours.

Maybe it is just a feeling, but I suspect that my tinnitus is a bit louder when the mornings are cold.

I noticed it during fall season, could this be a temporary spike?

 

[Matt9]

I mean I was at home last weekend due to quarantine and I swear my tinnitus lowered, yesterday I went to work and my tinnitus spiked up again. What the hell is going on?!

I have a strange occurrence where I have tinnitus that shows up during the spring/summer and seems to resolve in the fall/winter. It's a little early this year.

I'm wondering if it's allergy related. Tons of pollen right now being pumped into my house. It started last year in the spring/summer and then went away. And then it came back again last week. Super high-pitched, super annoying. Sounds like a hiss or sometimes a whine. It is worse in the right ear. Quiets when I yawn or blow my nose. Pumps right back up once I am done. My head feels all stuffed up.
