Cause of Tinnitus
Unknown
Hi. I just joined the forum. I've had tinnitus for two years in my right ear.
It could be due to aging and an incident two years ago.
My neighborhood was re-paving the road. The construction tool's noise hurt my right ear.
I took medicine for an year but no help.

Recently, due to a sudden noise (my son hammer the nail to the wall), my T spike up.
I feel annoyed but hoping it will feel better after a few weeks.

It is comfortable to know many people like me. I am not alone.
I don't expect my T will disappear soon but I will read the discussion and treatments.

Welcome to the forum. Yes there are millions out there with tinnitus. Even celebrities have them. Google celebrities with tinnitus and the list is long. Here are two household names who talked about their own tinnitus in a 1996 show. I kind of had a laugh watching it back then. It also helped me calm down a bit knowing even famous people have T and life goes on. Hope you will do better. Take care. God bless.

 
Sorry to hear about that. Have you tried any treatments? Does your T get louder or does it get higher pitch? Have you tried masking to help not getting so bothered?
