But what do the neck and jaw have to do with hearing loss? This device cannot cure the cause of tinnitus or progressive hearing loss and damage. Or am I missing something?

Sorry, I missed your post. Thank you for your hopeful words. I wish the best for you as well!

It changed into a sort of hiss. Now I feel like my baseline tinnitus is much louder, but maybe that is just because of the stress I have been under lately. What a horrible experience. Fire alarms are necessary, but they should definitely have lower decibel levels. On top of that, there are far...

Hi @DeletedHamster, Mentally, I am doing okay. I have been “recovering” for three years before, so I understand the struggle. Unfortunately, my hearing has worsened, which means more tinnitus. I now have more difficulty with detailed hearing and following conversations. My ears still feel full...

I would appreciate your advice. I experienced a second acoustic trauma on April 19, 2025. It lasted about half a minute at 110 dB, and I couldn’t get out of the room. It was an extremely traumatic experience. Immediately afterward, I started taking Prednisone for seven days. My tinnitus...

How are you doing now? Ears can take a very long time to heal.

It is unfortunate that most people never report their success stories or progress...

How are you doing now? Was it an acoustic trauma?

Did you have muffled hearing and tinnitus after the noise trauma?

@HopelessHearing, how are you doing now?

Sorry, I never get notifications. I hope you’re doing better now. I had a third acoustic trauma myself last week. My first recovery took about three years. Now my hearing is muffled, and I have ear pain. Praying for recovery…

I had a bad acoustic trauma in January 2021. They did not want to give me Prednisone, and I received no help from various ENTs. I felt very lonely for months. My audiogram showed slight hearing loss in my left ear. After three years, I habituated and learned to live with the severe tinnitus. I...

I understand you mean well, but I’d like to add a comment. With severe tinnitus caused by hearing damage, you can only become mentally stronger—you won’t physically recover. You have to be cautious for the rest of your life. Sirens, power tools, riding motorcycles, driving a car or even a...

Nope. Twenty years have passed, and I’m still suffering. I’m not talking about a simple peep in my ear but a symphony of terrible sounds that you can’t escape. These noises have completely destroyed my quality of life. The cause is hearing damage, and tinnitus has received almost no research...

What a nice thought of compassion.
