Hey, I got T. from similar stuff, youtube and music. It was 4 months ago. You have a great chance of recovering, and or get used to it, like I did. I'm of course sorry that this happened to you, but you're not alone. My sound sensitivity lasted a bit over a month and then it healed as well. Take care
Hi @Anniz thanks so much for your hopeful reply. I’ll try to keep my head up, what distresses me is the video in question, it was a test tone video I watched only because I read the comments saying they temporarily help reduce tinnitus. Instead it ended up damaging both my good and bad ear. 5 seconds less than 40% volume I just don’t understand
you had tinnitus prior watching that video? sound therapy only seems to help people who already have bad damage in their ears, i never listen to any sound therapy, i do these head and ear massages and it helps me alot to relax. Also the first month was hard for me to sleep as well, but after my ears got used to the ringing, sleeping became way easier
Hi @Anniz thanks for your correspondence and that really makes me happy to hear! Yea I had reactive sounds in my left ear, but I went and just randomly choose 6k hertz video to listen to. No headphones, I pressed play on my phone while on my chest and 5 seconds it for whatever reason really hurt my good ear and there was ringing followed after. I’m still in disbelief about what transpired
Didn’t have ringing in it before now have reactive tinnitus in it and sound sensitivity both loud and pain. Right ringing is worse that left one by a lot. 2 Ents say I should be better in time…but I’m just shell shocked to be frank. I would have been fine with the left ringing prior to the sound it’s slightly worse post random YouTube clip
