New Member — Ears Started Ringing After I Was Put on Afrin

[Rosalie]

New Member, my ears started ringing 6/2/19. The emergency room put me on Afrin to open my totally closed nasal passage. My ears started to ring the second day.

Then I was put on Nasacort. The ringing continued. The thought was it was the Afrin still in my system I have stayed on the Nasalcort because it really opened my sinus and believed what they told me. Now I found articles that people had ringing from Nasacort. Not using it anymore.

Should I be hopeful that this will go away now? Happy to have found this forum.

I already had tinnitus from noise injury. I used Afrin last night and within 10 seconds, the tinnitus got lounder. Now on day 2 and it's still louder. Ugh.

Did your tinnitus ever go back down?
