I am sorry to know of the difficulties you are going through @Banksy. If the onset of your tinnitus is solely related to a sinus infection and possibly ETD, then an ENT doctor should be able to treat these conditions as this is their area of expertise and hopefully the tinnitus will reduce. Nine...

The first ENT I went to said I had a sinus infection, and that my ear stuff would clear up once I fix that. She prescribed "Augmentin875". Not a huge fan of antibiotics. She also didn't use an endoscope to check my nose, just sprayed something and quickly looked up. So I'm going to a new one...

I was recently diagnosed with bronchitis/pharyngitis. I have been sick constantly this year from upper respiratory infections and have taken an oral course of penicillin in Jan 2017 and an oral course of amoxicillin about 2 months later, both for sinus infection/pharyngitis. I now have been...

Tinnitus can be quite unpredictable especially a relatively new T. It can morph into different symptoms like jumping ears, multi tones, switching tones, ear fullness, etc. So don't worry too much on it. Focusing on the positives will help to prevent too much anxiety and stress build up which can...

Hi billie48, I hope you are having a good day. I know I have to give it time for my ears to heal, but I just wanted to ask you about what I have been experiencing recently. So last night, for a few minutes (maybe 3-4 minutes), it felt like my tinnitus was gone and that I heard silence. This...

Welcome to the forum. Don't worry too much about the MRI. I did it during my recent episode of SSHL and the ENT recommended an MRI to check for possible acoustic neuroma. It is loud for sure but bearable and not hurting my tinnitus especially I follow the same precaution as mentioned above to...

I know there are a decent amount of posts regarding Septoplasty, and I’ll keep reading them, but I couldn’t necessarily find an answer from people who had a Septoplasty after tinnitus. I had tinnitus onset a little over two months ago, the same time I had a sinus infection, then mono and loud...

Sorry to hear you're going through that kind of crap. No one deserves such an ailment. I've got a question though. How did they decide on the Middle Ear Myoclonus (MEM) diagnosis? Do you have thumping/fluttering/spasming in the ear? Sorry if you mentioned it in the above conversation and I...

Sorry ladies, I did not see your questions until now. @monkey124 I don't think that ETD blockage itself is the problem and a tympanogram would probably show that eustachian tubes were not blocked --- reason being plugging ear or lowering your head would not completely stop your sounds with ET...

Welcome to the forum. Your tinnitus may not be due to change of car. It may be a coincidence. There are many causes, single or combined, which can trigger or aggravate tinnitus including but not limited to drug side-effects from ototoxic drugs, earwax build-up, earwax removal suction, inner ear...

If you investigate deep enough you will realize loud noise damage can cause ear fullness/aches and get misdiagnosed as ETD.

Welcome to the forum. Hearing aids are generally used for tinnitus caused by hearing loss. From your description, it seems your tinnitus is from sinus infection or ETD. Have you checked with expert that you don't have a ETD issue? Do you feel blockage of the eustachian tube? It is good to have...

Welcome to the forum. Since I am not a doctor, I can't give medical opinion on your specific case. Perhaps you contact the doctors at the Doctor's Corner on TT to see if they have any opinion. If not, since two of your doctors said it was related to ETD, then perhaps they know something and if...

No I believe they said that I didn't have it

@Marijana Hi! I went to Poland for a few days this week so had two 2 hour flights. My previously very mild T increased at Christmas as a result of a virus / sinus infection. I have also had mild ETD and have been struggling with pressure in my ears so was panicking about flying. I googled lots...

Welcome to the forum. I agree you may need to check up with ENT to determine if you have ear infections, wax build up or ear fluids, ETD etc. ENT can also check if you have hearing loss. You mention that you haven't gone to concert in years, but tinnitus can be caused by many other causes...

No, That was Skydra. I did not get mine from barotrauma.

Wow, yes, our situation seems very similar. I had a hearing test this week and I have no hearing loss or damage whatsoever so it is 100% an infection thus most likely ETD. I do (very very very) slowly notice improvement, though at some moments it can get really loud and at other moments the...

@Koz, Do you still think the pot was linked to your ETD? My pre-existing tinnitus has been worse in my right ear for a couple of weeks now and I feel more pressure in that ear than usual, and my ENT today said he believes my E tube in my right ear is inflamed. He believes this is the result...

I couldn't tell you without knowing what caused your tinnitus. Tinnitus from ear infections 99% of the time is from extremely swollen Eustachian tubes which can take years to go down without treatment (steroids, anti-allergies, saline sinus rinses). It's extraordinarily rare for an ear...

I have some sinus / ET infection recently with yellow bloody discharge, my GP prescribed me the Naseptin nasal cream (neomycin 0.5% / chlorhexidine dihydrochloride 0.1%) for topical use (in nose) twice a day for 2 weeks. I read about the ototoxicity of neomycin and aminoglycosides in general...

Hello TT, I have been dealing with contact tinnitus (high pitched) and Eustachian tube dysfunction since April. This occurred after a sinus infection. The other day, my ears seemed a bit more clogged and I experienced a loud tinnitus in my right ear, that felt more clogged. This put me into a...

It's like reading my own story!! The ENT couldn't figure it out (telling me it was probably a viral infection, but no sign of fluid build up). Then I had a nurse look at it and, low and behold, I had a bulging eardrum due to fluid build up...??? So I started doing my own investigating (after...

Mike K, here's hoping your ETD is going to disappear.It is a not-well-understood topic. I don't know if smoking (tobacco,weed or anything else) directly causes tinnitus, but tobacco smoke does paralyse cilia in the respiratory tract. Can inflammation in the Eustachian tube be seen on...

Hey @Hariz Nonis: My tinnitus came from barotrauma on a long distance airplane flight. ETD was a factor. I do fly now, but only if I follow a specific protocol given to me my doctor. It's outlined in the thread below. My post is long but you should read the whole thing. On this thread, you will...

Your 10 minutes in the concert might have caused further damage to the ears. Usually acoustic trauma will make the ears unstable for a while from weeks to months. So try to be patient and not too freaked out. You may also check if there are more than just the concert event that might have caused...

Did it help? How do you feel now?

Wow @billie48, remarkable compilation of just "some" of the causes for tinnitus. Don't know if you caught it, but one woman just wrote that she successfully traced her tinnitus to HEART PROBLEMs. She's apparently now almost completely tinnitus free after nine years (IIRC). -- Thanks for the...

Hi @Renfrey, I am taking the Mometasone of my own accord and not from a doctor’s prescription. I had some left over from a sinus infection a year ago and I decided to take it on my own; however, I did speak to an ENT today and he told me it was likely the best nasal steroid for ETD and it is...

I will have the same surgery but in 4-5 months from now according to my surgeon. I am scared of Empty Nose Syndrome more than any tinnitus spike. Please keep us updated here if you want, I will follow this thread. Wish you the best and speedy recovery and no complications after the surgery.

Hmmm, being sensitive to certain noises - as in it causes pain? Or that certain noises trigger the tinnitus more often? Do you suffer from tinnitus spikes? If it's popping when you wake up, and on a regular basis, that might be a symptom of ETD (I've mentioned the other symptoms above). Or...

Hi everyone, I've had ongoing ETD, ear infection, glue ear, sinus issues for several months. Previous to this I was totally health, never had any problems with my ears. Eventually, I got tinnitus in 1 ear and today my eardrum in my previously good ear ruptured and now I can hear my heartbeat in...

That concert triggered my T 3.5 years ago.
