Hello Guys! Tinnitus Since 4 Months!

Hello guys, I'm new in the forum and I'm from swiss I'm 24 years old. I'm very glad to see a comunity based on tinnitus I think it's very helpfull for those like me that had tinnitus. Also I developed a mild tinnitus after a party where the sound was at very high level. Now is 4 months that I have tinnitus exactly from 17 january. I have also other problems releated to the ears I have TMD that end with a 'cric crac' in the ears when i swallow and when I eat. I have also an eardrum vibration when I speak, probably this is a stapedial muscle related problem. Sorry for my bad english but normaly I speak italian

Hello billie my tinnitus isn't very loud. When there is a good ambient noise like tv, radio I don't hear my t very high is like a noise 'piiii' in background.

 

Hey Jokko, I really know how you feel because im in almost the same position! I have mine for 4 months now, too, I was at a loud party and firecrackers exploded near my ear and I still can hear mine. Its not really loud, if I dont concencrate on it, I usually dont hear it, but when it gets quiet (when I go to bed for example), I can hear it.
I also have the same sound when I swallow! This "cric crac" in the ear, sometimes only my right ear, sometimes both, sometimes it doesnt do this sound at all and I dont really know what this is. If I hold my nose and try to breathe out, my right ear also is blocked...... this all might be because the inner ear is still damaged/swollen and hopefully regenerating.... I for my part dont give up on hope and I hope the best for you, too! The only thing I dont have is this "eardrum vibration" that you talk about.....

Well, I hope you have a lot of fun here, best greetings from me!
Tobi

 

I have the same crack when I swollow, I have had it all my life, I thought it was normal until I joined TT. I think its the Eustachian tubes that get sticky and gummed up with mucus.

 

Don't worry, you only have mild tinnitus! It's liveable! Anyway, as for TMD...Try this- http://www.emedicinehealth.com/temporomandibular_joint_tmj_syndrome/page6_em.htm

 

The cric crack isn't the eustachian tube is temporo mandibular muscle that are stressed and not in the right position.

 

Can this make T worse? Anything you ca do about it? My ears crack like crazy every swallow.

 

Yes of course it can make t worse!!
