...to whether or not it could possibly make your tinnitus worse though. They are only really just starting to scratch the surface on head trauma in contact sports now, so I'm guessing most doctors wouldn't have a clue in regard to boxing and auditory damage. I actually watched a really...

1a) T caused by a one-time noise exposure (acoustic trauma) 1b) T caused by a lifetime of ear abuse (T due to noise)

Is it head trauma or cochlear damage?

Do you have jaw, neck issues, head trauma, brain issues? Do you experience ear pain, chronic ear fullness, do some sounds sound too loud or abnormally loud?

...(acoustic trauma)(e.g., a kiss on the ear, a slap, being near a loud speaker); ototoxic medication; TMJ; ear being hurt at the dentist, by an ultrasonic teeth cleaning tool, during microsuction, by pouring hydrogen peroxide into an ear that has an eardrum with a small hole in it; a head trauma.

Sounds quite a bit like my case. Did you happen to have some kind of neck/head trauma before your T set in? There are some situations where noise is not the trigger.

Any, and I mean any, hit in your head can lead to nasty consequences in the long run. You don't need to be KOed to be worried about your brain. Concussions and brain trauma still being a mystery for the scientific community. 8.000.000.000 of humans as of today. We are a stupid by nature...

Ototoxic medicines and acoustic trauma both kill hair cells/synapses and count as hearing loss. 1 & 3 are in the same category, even aspects of TMD are.

How do you know if you have hyperacausis?

32 weeks from Acoustic Trauma (May 2021) -Vertigo/Dizziness started 5 days after 1st vaccine & resolved/13 days after 2nd vaccine -12th day at home with vertigo/dizziness, improving slowly -10 days on steroid pack -Head/neck pain -Increased tinnitus back to ringing/static -Hyperacusis is still...

Don't worry, you're not alone, eric and few others including myself sometime are having the same buzzing in our head, i believe the neurons are simply lost and have an erratic activity a bit like people having flash in their brains after head trauma...

When did this all start Christoph?And any clues as to why it happened? Head trauma,loud noise or excessive noise,medications things like that?

Hello, I'm re-launching this topic with a question I can't answer. Can somatosensory tinnitus, that we can modulate with movement of the mouth, jaw, neck, be reactive to the sound environment? Or simply reactive to tensions in the neck and head area? Finally, can we have both, a more central...

I had helmet on, I didn't had any head injury as far as I know. Hearing test is fine upto 8KHz. Only thing I suspect is earphones and anesthesia.

Bad bike accident in July...landed on my the side of my head/neck and left shoulder. Broken clavicle and cracked ribs. No observed head trauma...helmet did it's job. Came down with the flu after running a marathon in October. ER in December...CT showed a BAD sinus infection. Drugs knocked it...

How is your T now?

Too many factors to consider. But in the interest of sharing information, I will attach a research paper on trauma induced tinnitus. A standard and basic starting point is a hearing test: along with tinnitus, head injuries can cause hearing loss. There are specific ways trauma induced hearing...

...to you getting sick. Don’t think the worst of it. Short term episodes especially when you are sick are probably nothing to worry about. Sorry to hear about your accident. I hope you are better. Do you think it was acoustic trauma from the sound or something like a head trauma that caused it?

head trauma is a suspect

@Brian meadows Did you have any hearing loss associated to the head trauma from the surfing accident? High frequencies can get affected easily.

Yes, i have the clicking But it just start, No reaction to sounds. I have no H. Got the clicking from a head trauma. Are you looking into surgery?

If your head trauma was 24 years ago, i wouldn't assume it's related (unless you have neck issues since or jaw misalignment in which case it might be). From everything I have read, low tones often don't have the usual causes and it is worth a full work up to rule out things like hydrops...

Good day. I was just wondering if you went through with the laser when you did your dental work. If so, how was it? I need to fill in some cavities as well. What about noise-cancelling headphones, or would that be the same thing? How did your appointment go? I hope everything went well.

If your doctor verified that there is head trauma, then it's not just he said she said. Would your doctor be able to testify that it was the trauma that caused all your problems? My tinnitus was caused by someone else too, no legal recourse in my case, but it doesn't sound as severe as yours.

I'm not sure about that. I have no history of head trauma and I can't think of anything I've done that could've damaged my cochlea. Yet I have this hellish thing. I'm trying to hold on in hopes of some form of treatment coming soon, but it's hard, to say the least. It does just stop sometimes...

Of course, I have a tendency to be wrong, but I'm thinking the stomp I did caused some head trauma or something because I did have a headache after... scared:(

What do you think could be causing this low pitch tinnitus then? I noticed it very soon after the fit of rage. I didn't shout that loud or a long amount of time... but still I have this tinnitus from after that anger outburst? I'm starting to get concerned that I damaged something in my ear...

Things may improve. My first year with hyperacusis and tinnitus was absolute hell. I cried a lot and even once sat on the floor, banging my head against the wall. Life was miserable. Thankfully, the hyperacusis eventually resolved. I still have some sensitivity and avoid power equipment, loud...

@Shera Do you grind your teeth? Have you had any treatment for TMJ and neck from head injury to relieve those problems? I have head trauma from a dental experience where pressure was pressed on my front lower jaw and neck. Since then I grind my teeth.

Many interesting papers. COFRE paper (#2) would help identify where tinnitus is coming from, and perhaps, lead to more scientific breakthroughs in determining origin to address the devastating problem. My tinnitus is trauma-induced, and is constant since my accident with head and neck trauma...

As far as you know/what's been reported. Blunt force trauma to the head being regularly used to detain suspects? That has to have had killed someone, statistically speaking.

Does anyone know if FX-322 might treat hearing loss caused by a head trauma? I read somewhere that an impact to the head can cause additional damage to the cochlea besides dead/damaged hair cells. A quick intro: I am a 57-year-old male and endured a car driving into the left side of my head...

...Listed problems that are known to cause tinnitus 1 :Hearing loss: acoustic trauma, ototoxic drugs, loud music, ear infection, middle ear bone damage, ear drum burst, ear wax 2: Neck/Jaw tinnitus : TMD, TMJ, Neck Jaw spine problems, Cervical issues. 3: Head trauma:, TBI, brain tumor...

My instinct regarding sound exposure is to take reasonable precautions, which will vary depending on one’s personal situation. For those with hyperacusis, more rigorous protection is necessary. Similarly, for those with reactive tinnitus, additional precautions are also important. For me...

I know n=1 anecdotes aren't super helpful, but my MEMR has become so strong and pronounced in the last year that I can physically feel it reacting to almost any abrupt sound (particularly high-frequency ones) after acoustic trauma-caused tinnitus and hyperacusis one year ago. The hyperacusis is...

Hi , Sorry you haven't had a reply yet but head trauma can cause tinnitus . Hope over time it might go away...keep checking for replies.....lots of love glynis

When I first experienced acoustic trauma, for a couple of days afterward, whenever I spoke, I heard what I could only describe as a "cloud of frequency" blooming around my voice, as well as the voices of other people. After a those initial days, it subsided, and I only catch a glimpse of it if...

@Tweaker How did you get your tinnitus, if you do not mind me asking. Acoustic trauma/noise exposure/hearing loss or head/neck/neck/TMJ injury, or another cause?

My tinnitus has faded to the point I really don't hear it unless I plug my ears, then it's more of a head sound than an ear ring. My hyperacusis is gone, but I am still sensitive to loud noise, especially "sharp" noise like glass dishes clinking together. I still avoid loud music and wear...

I'd like to know if there's a possible link between contractions of the tensor tympani muscle, which also causes pain in and around the ear and in the head, and Megan Beers Wood's research. Is this different? Can we have an answer to pain in the inner ear (Megan Beers Wood theory) and...

It could very well be due to allergies. Did you have recently any head or neck trauma (whiplash e.g.) or do you work in a noisy work environment (a hidden hearing loss)?

...suicidal), can you please describe your tinnitus - How does it sound like (places you hear it/maskability, # of sounds) and probable cause (noise, drugs, head trauma). Mine: 9+/10 Cause- noise trauma Characteristic - heard everywhere, masked only by shower, multi-tone jet engine type sound.

Hi Shera! I noticed that you have had head trauma/TMJ/ETD issues and was wondering if you've ever tried seeing an upper cervical chiropractor for your issues? All of these issues can be caused by a subluxation of your atlas vertebrae. Hope you're doing okay! ;)

Hello everyone, the name is Shaqz and I finally had the balls to post about my tinnitus two month later... My silence vanished on December 10th after a concert where the VIP stage was literally right next to the speakers. The stage was shaped where it was the speakers, the VIP stage, then the...

Thanks Andre, and some interesting info there. I am not sure if my issues are the same as yours as I haven't sustained any head trauma that may cause it.

I did not have head trauma. I don't know why I got tinnitus but it is possibly from over-exposure to noise. Assuming the reason for my tinnitus is repeat over-exposures to noise, but that I don't have much hearing loss even in the higher frequencies, what are the chances of my tinnitus going away?

Noise induced tinnitus Ototoxicity induced tinnitus Head trauma induced tinnitus Age related hearing loss induced tinnitus

Stop wearing head-phones if you have suffered from acoustic trauma. I learned the hard way as well, even if set at a low volume headphones can still do more damage.

@object16 Just wanted to add the great potential of T also being a result of mental trauma and stress that doesn't need to have anything to do with exposure to loud noises and/or acoustic shock. Seems like the auditory cortex and the inner ear can be damaged by an overflow of stress hormones...

This is good news to get out of the house @Hardwell. In addition to this, taking up a new hobby or interest will help to take your mind off the tinnitus. The habituation process takes time, especially after a second noise trauma. Be patient and stay resilient. The tinnitus will fluctuate and...

Thank you for sharing your story. I suffered acoustic trauma from an MRI that reached 130 dB, even with my earplugs in. I’ve noticed all the same symptoms you have. However, my hyperacusis seems to be even more severe—restaurants with clattering dishes are unbearable for me. Two months in, I’m...

Almost the same here. First trauma in 2004, second one in 2015 and permanent huge increase. 20dB to 60dB hearing loss. So I'll read your posts about LLLT with interest.

Hello Michael, Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to go through my old posts to help me. I really appreciate it. I believe my first experience with tinnitus was due to cervical problems (I have a protrusion), which would explain all the symptoms I had at the time. My ENT...

16 weeks from Acoustic Trauma (January 2021) -I used to feel pressure in my head when I would bend forward to pick something up. I feel much better, fewer headaches after 4 months. -Mouth and tooth pain are much improved this week. I had difficulty opening my mouth and talking last week from...

I think the perception of tinnitus possibly can also depend on the original cause eg. noise induced, ototoxicity induced (which can affect both the cochlea and the auditory nerve), head trauma, etc.

Hello guys. Something very strange happened to me 4 months ago. I got up and got a hard hurting punch in my head without any head trauma symptoms but I felt a strange noise and my ear got stuck right after this. My doc said I have wax and it must be removed. I got my bloody tinnitus 3 days...

Hi @Jos. Both a neurologist and an ENT would be a good idea. You want to explore all available options. Did you go to the doctor/hospital following the head trauma?

I got T 50 days after assault. How long after your head trauma did you get T?
