    Acoustic Trauma Induced Low Hum Almost Completely Gone by Lowering Chin to Chest

    For many people (including myself), the head movement affects a lot the tinnitus volume, this is called somatic tinnitus. Mine increases by rotating the head to left/right and moving my jaw in front. My hyperacusis and tinnitus are from acoustic trauma also.

    Itchy Ears with Pain Hyperacusis (Noxacusis)

    It would be interesting to know whether the hyperacusis that causes the tensor tympani muscle to vibrate and hurt on sound input after a history of sound shock/trauma is equivalent to inner ear pain hyperacusis. Norena also mentions inflammation/contraction of the nerves innervating the tensor...

    It took a month or two to resolve. It comes back occasionally if I am very stressed. I recently had a head cold and it came back then, but resolved when my congestion cleared up. I wondered about hydrops in the past, especially closer to the acoustic trauma because my ears would have a "wet"...

    Not Sure What’s Causing My Tinnitus: Can You Have ETD If CT and MRI Show No Fluid in the Middle Ear?

    Thanks for your reply. I’ve decided not to go ahead with getting grommets. There’s definitely both an ear-related and psychiatric component to all of this. Fortunately, my best mate is a psychiatrist, and he's helped me with some medication for sleep. On three occasions now, the tinnitus has...

    Second Acoustic Trauma: Seeking Advice on Ear Fullness/Pressure
