In this sense, you read all kinds of things, because there are people who claim that tinnitus caused by acoustic trauma can improve. And many people who say they've gotten better had acoustic trauma. I believe that, simply, regardless of the cause, tinnitus can either improve or not improve at...

By 'many months', do you mean more than 6 months, like even 15, 18, or 24 months?

Yeah, my left ear is probably a little bit worse now. I have some reactivity to certain frequencies and a sort of distortion of certain sounds. It's not severe, but it's there. Tinnitus depends. The first weeks were tragic. Last week was moderate, and now I've had two good days. I remain...

I don't know if earplugs are the best choice because a drill makes vibrations.

When an individual already has tinnitus, and it becomes louder after a noise trauma (such as a toddler's scream), does this new condition have a specific name? I ask because I have noticed that people usually refer to it as a "spike." However, the term "spike" seems a bit generic, in my opinion.

@Mymlan, it's incredible all your 13 tinnitus tones disappeared! I have a new high-pitched floating tone; I hope to get rid of mine, too.

My tinnitus is similar to yours. It's a different acoustic trauma but a very close situation, almost identical.

Hi everyone, After seven years of mild tinnitus, I'm here again because, 40 days ago, my tinnitus became very loud due to noise trauma from earbuds (a firecracker sound lasting 3 seconds came out of nowhere during a Twitch stream). The two main tones are a common high-pitched electrical noise...

I'm concerned about whether my tinnitus, which has increased in volume and has a new high-pitched sound after a noise trauma, can return to its previous level. It seems strange to me because logically, I would expect a noise trauma to create a completely new tinnitus sound. Previously, my...

I'm currently dealing with a situation where my tinnitus has increased in volume and is still loud 15 days after an acoustic trauma. I hope that it will return to baseline soon. I've read about people who have waited for 3-4 weeks or even months for improvement. In my case, it has been 2 weeks...

After this kind of trauma, can the tinnitus be worse for weeks before returning back to baseline?

My tinnitus has become louder after use headphones at loud volume (for an error)..3 seconds of loud music. I hope that i have ONLY irritate the Cochlear hair cells..and i hope with time i could be better..probably now my Cochlea is much more sensitive. I have active noise cancelling headphones...

Ginkgo is safe or it could cause side effects?

Use drugstore drops with glycerin 1 time at week is safe for ears? Hot water bottle put near ear could soften ear war only with heat? I think thar is safe/better not to use warm water inside ear but lukewarm water. Warm water maybe could burn ear inside
