    Improvements for People with Burning Pain (in Silence) Hyperacusis?

    I used to have 24/7 burning, acid pain for 5 months, then it slowly faded away.

    From Klonopin (Clonazepam) Induced Horrors of Tinnitus and Hyperacusis to Approaching a Better State

    It just confirms hyperacusis and noxacusis are completely different things. One can have both, of course.

    I agree. I had burning for 4 days and was at end of my rope... not even stabbing, just burning and I was done.

    Gabapentin (Neurontin)

    It doesn't help with noise tolerance or hyperacusis. Only with the pain. It's an aching/burning pain that's reactive to noise. It gets my pain level to zero. No other meds. I titrate up and down. 100 mg for a few days, then 200 mg, to 300 mg, then back down.

    I can definitely relate *huge hug* It's been over a year for me, which I've pretty much spent homebound, & I've had 24/7 partial face numbness & burning for many months now. Hard to keep hope alive. But I really think in your case it will get better! Maybe time for some strong ginger tea?

    My Ear Suddenly Felt Blocked and Now My Hyperacusis and Tinnitus Are Way Worse

    ...or worsening a little over two weeks ago, I haven’t noticed any real improvements. On my left side, I feel pain, aching, and occasionally burning in my ear. Sometimes, the discomfort stretches from the back or top of my head downward, across my face, and into the front of my neck. Right now...

    Diagnosed as an ear infection because of fluid behind my eardrum and redness. But I am not sure if that would cause the facial burning. Worried it's a misdiagnosis and it's actually noxacusis

    @ZFire burning pain on the whole side of my face and ears and sharp pains. Not triggered by noise exactly - only by TTTS movement (which is triggered by noise, lol) but especially talking, chewing, turning neck, etc. I think it was the movement of my eardrum or those muscles.

    Road to Recovery from Loudness and Pain Hyperacusis (Noxacusis)

    I have experienced both. In 2020 I could experience a burning sensation around my ear area in silence. The burning sensation hasn't really come back since November 2021. Sometimes I notice a very slight burning feeling but that is about it. I still experience direct pain from sounds.

    Cell Phones Causing Ear Burning and Worsening of Ear Problems

    Prednisone for Noxacusis Spike? What's the Suggested Dosage?

    @MadeleineHope, yes, I'm having really horrible noxacusis symptoms. They're not getting better even with double hearing protection. Burning and stabbing pain pretty frequently, my ear is always full, and my middle ear muscles go crazy.

    Ear Canal Burning — What's the Cause?

    So sorry that this symptom has started for you too *hug*. I re-read a chunk of the Norena article today & it seems as though it's spreading inflammation. Interestingly, Norena also states that the inflammation can eventually reach the inner ear, where the pain receptors there (type II fibres)...

Maybe higher amounts of ginger might help...

    Do you have noxacusis by any chance? I just had a setback today (live music coming from bar across the street from my apartment) & hours later got numbness in the left side of my face to accompany the ear burning. I'm thinking it's trigeminal nerve involvement.

    Natural (Herbal) KCNQ Channel Activators for Pain Hyperacusis?

    ...It would be nice if these potassium channel drugs could come out soon so we can test the theory on whether it can help with stabbing and burning pain. I still reckon both will be reduced or gone with these drugs targeting the Kv7.2 and Kv7.3 but I’m not ruling out the importance of Kv7.4.
