The only thing consistent with tinnitus is inconsistency. I think going to a restaurant is too uncontrolled to be safe for someone with relatively new tinnitus, but you will find your limits by experience. The hard thing for me was linking the experience to my tinnitus level, as there was...

@ItsNate101 Last night while I was in my bed I heard something very similar to a distant female choir in my head. One of the interesting things is that during that sound electrical hiss tinnitus (in the head) stopped. I didn't even notice that until sound of choir stopped. I thought I was...

https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/somatic-tinnitus.812/page-3#post-253485 It's a good introduction: Many get this form of T, from nerve damage. Nerve and Jaw dental trauma will cause this type of T quite often. Then come the neck pain, jaw pain head ache, face pain and you name it. Some back...

If it's somatic physical tinnitus - yes as in link above, Somatic physical tinnitus start with forceful or strained movement of head, neck and/or jaw. Small acoustic signals are generated. The immune system can also be weak with infection which can react to many many parts of the ear...

Interesting. About 15 or so years ago I got the low rumbling truck engine ticking over on idle sound when I used a foam earplug to block out a neighbour's dog barking at 6 am every day. That noise then used to only come out for a month or so when I was sick with a cold. I would do everything to...

...it's common knowledge in tinnitus communities that audiologist are wrong about hearing loss (they do not keep up to date with hearing loss research) http://hyperacusisfocus.org/innerear/#hiddenloss Because your tinnitus was caused by head trauma you may be a exception and not have hearing loss.

Thank you very much for all this information! :) That's a lot of information to digest all at once, ahah. My "normal" tinnitus is due to a sound trauma, but it is somatic. When I said I hit my head, it was when I was a kid, like everyone else hits their head, I never went to the hospital for...

Yep, I had minor hearing loss, but never tinnitus. The tinnitus started immediately after a concussion in a car accident. Hearing tests before & after the accident showed no change in hearing. My tinnitus is static and all over my head. It often feels like it is coming from the top of my...

Your trauma wasn't that severe as mine, I was in a loud concert. Already went to more than 4 ENTs. MRI, CT Scan normal. No infection.

Head and ear are similar. Same area and I can still have had a concussion and not know it. Either way if my ringing is now 30-40 DB is that a good sign it will for sure fade to something quieter?

Hello everybody, I have had tinnitus since 2018. It was caused by acoustic trauma, as my ENT indicated back then. I have high-frequency hearing loss. I used to work in aviation for several years and had to be around operating helicopters, but I made sure I regularly wore ear protection...

SSHL can be caused by almost everything. An acoustic trauma is a cause of SSHL. As soon as there is damage or irritation you have a hearing loss. For instance, malformation of the inner ear head injury or trauma loud-noise exposure neurologic conditions immune system diseases Ménière’s...

I'm sure I've read this information on a study about HIFU but I don't remember where...regarding my story,I had an acoustic trauma nine months ago (while listening to loud music) with first tinnitus onset in the right ear and a slight hearing loss at 4k hertz. They disappeared with some steroid...

Yeah, they all say hearing loss caused it seems. You wonder if it's compressed nerves in upper neck or possibly muscle spasms?

We tend to forget exactly how things were... But I was in a bad place for a long time. Just moving my head on my pillow and hearing the sound of the sheets made me crumble. I couldn't stand the sound of running water or frying food. I remember going on a trip to a waterfall about six months...

I'm saying hearing loss causes tinnitus based on this research. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4208401/

Do you have a history of loud noise, headphones, loud cars? Any medications recently before tinnitus? Any head trauma, TMD, trigeminal nerve issues, cervical issues? Genetic hearing loss in the family?

Please , can you describe at how many ATAs where your sessions ?

The last few days, I've been in severe pain from just previous moderate pain on left side - both top and bottom of oral cavity that is also causing ear pain, fullness and some hyperacusis. I do have oral infection that antibiotics have not solved. Discussion reasons: Infection - crestal...

At this point I would settle for not waking up everyday like I was in a car crash and am waking for from massive head trauma. I seriously would be ok with a tone running constantly if it was somewhat localized to my ears and not piercing my brain, so in essence I would gladly pay for an...

@binsonica What you describe is the same with me. I had loss of normal lordosis from muscle trapezius spasm trauma and jaw pressure - whiplash. Bones are normal without fracture and soft tissues are within normal limits. This is often the case. My noted arthritis could be a secondary factor...

I am right there with you, except in your case I really don't think that there is any cause for concern. You are so young. Most people don't get Meniere's until they are much older. Plus, what you have described sounds like Labyrintitis. Have you had any head or neck trauma that might make...

...hairs in ears were working fine too. My jaw clicks sometimes but no pain so my physiotherapist and dentist ruled TMJ dysfunction out. No head trauma (I mean I fell sometimes as a child but I think that's normal lol). As far as cervical issues, my c1 and c2 are rotated (c2 by 14 degrees) but...

...for a walk everyday. My question is can you give me any advice to complete six week 'bed rest' successfully and should I even be going for a walk everyday or should I remain completely sedentary? Also, have I left bed rest too late given it's nearly three months since my head trauma? Thanks.

Maybe you're developing musical tinnitus? It's a weird story, but I've heard that some people hear songs all day long after noise trauma. Come on Eileen sounds more pleasant to have than the sound of an airplane or a train that is consistently hitting the breaks o_O .

Damn. After my acoustic trauma, I got ear fullness. I did Valsalva maneuver numerous times. 11 days after my acoustic trauma, I got T. Reading the above, makes me suspect that I might have given myself the gift of T by doing that Valsalva maneuver......................

60 mg is standard dosage for sudden hearing loss. Vitamin A, C, E, Magnesium, + NAC may be helpful. Free radical scavengers, vitamins A, C, and E, plus magnesium reduces noise trauma Vitamins A, C, and E and selenium in the treatment of idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss Vitamin E...

@Steve G Hi Steve: I have somatic electrical noise with a pulse. Sometimes it will be focused on my left side around the temple. Many with somatic tinnitus will have symptomatic tension signals from toughened muscles in the innervation area of the sensory trigeminal nerve related to the acoustic...

...the jarring motion of driving on an uneven surface shook up my tinnitus. It happens if I bang my head accidentally as well or other such head trauma... I researched the side effects of Pepsi and aspercreme, and both have tinnitus as a side effect over long term use. I believe these...

Yes I am progressively worsening, it could be due to all sorts of things, meds, noise, stress, head trauma, anything that affects the brain, because it's a brain thing and the brain latches on to every hearing loss, that's why new tones keep popping up. It's brain damage, but in the auditory...

I have a noisy job. I work at a ship yard with lots of loud bangs and noisy work. I have tinnitus and some hyperacusis due to noise trauma. Because of this I always wear both helmet mounted earmuffs and and earplugs to be safe. This works well and the earplugs alone have been tested to attenuate...

...up, followed by neck pain, dental procedures, jaw/pain, sciatica pain and self cleaning of ears. Data about the use of drug medication, head trauma, genetics, blood vessels, bones in ears is unknown. Age factors differ according to cause. It's interesting that neck and jaw pain often...

...and I really wish things turn out better for you soon. Was there anything that could have triggered this? Acoustic trauma, medication, head trauma or something? The worst feeling is not knowing what's happening and hopefully a doctor will be able to diagnose and treat this sudden condition...

...to stay. How much hearing loss did the audiogram show? Was there a change in tone? Assuming that there was no medication, infections, head trauma, acoustic trauma, blood clots, TMJD, etc, my best guess is that you had much louder tinnitus to begin with but the thalamic reticular nucleus...

Hello Bill, It started in November last year just 2 weeks before my 30 birthday... What a gift... No trauma or hearing loss, and I didn't take any medication at that time... But I am a very nervous and anxious person so I think it is because of that ! Nowadays I am suicidal, besides I take...

Oh, I know I have tinnitus, that was diagnosed. I said the cause of it is unknown. I have health issues which may have caused it, but I never had head trauma or prolonged exposure to loud noise.

Hi, I have had tinnitus in my left ear for 10 years. I habituated after some time and the tinnitus didn't bother me much after that. Almost two months ago I had an impact sound trauma at work that resulted in a new very high-pitched sound after about 3 or 4 days witch persists today. I am...

Any medications that were possibly ototoxic? Neck, jaw problems? Head trauma? Genetic hearing loss in the family? Those are the major components.

Good day everyone, I've had acoustic trauma induced tinnitus since November 21st, 2020. These last two weeks my dizziness and eye pain has taken a toll. I went to the eye doctor, and she confirmed my eye health looks good. However, recently I've felt dizziness and a ton of head pressure...

I will admit that I laughed aloud at the visual of a sound wave traveling through an entire neighborhood all from a dropped shower head. Seems almost like a tinnitus comic: no one knew my pain, so I dropped my shower head and now everyone knows my pain. Honestly, sometimes I also have to laugh...

I had this the other night on a particularly chilly evening. I breathed in through my mouth, but I could instantly feel the breeze from my mouth to my ear, which has been symptomatic from an acoustic trauma in June. I dunno, maybe that incident shook up my eustachian tube like crazy. Who knows...

...part in any research or you get any other news from Professor Rauschecker. My Tinnitus was also probably caused by a virus/cold or a head trauma, nontheless i would absolutely advice you to wear earplugs to any loud events (to at least prevent your hearing from getting any worse). Wish you...

Could I get in if I am from New Zealand with SNHL?

We only suspect he did. Hopefully they do a good job screening.

@PatrickG , Karma decided a blunt forced trauma to my skull with a metal rod was due. Two months later, T suddenly started when I lay down in bed and never stopped. I've severe hearing loss in one ear plus multiple reactive noises. Still, I try to do some martial arts. Though, no direct blows...

@Screamin Ears Screamin Ears My neuro believes that I have occipital neuralgia which resulted from dental trauma. Occipital neuralgia can also be caused by whiplash such as with a car accident or by lifting. It's caused by a pinched nerve in the neck or by tight muscles at the back of the...

@Nick Pyzik Thanks for your post but you lost me in some of your thoughts.Stop the ringing,but the problem will still be there?. We lost our younger self?. I could be wrong,but are you saying that our emotions are a cause of T ?. What about the stories of loud music,head trauma etc.. causing T?.

...cerebral artery-cavernous sinus fistula Direct anterior cerebral artery-cavernous sinus fistula is an extremely rare complication of head trauma. We describe a male patient (age 49 years) with a history of head trauma 15 years ago who was hospitalised for a bulging red eye and tinnitus...

...left ear drum vibrates sometimes and I can hear and feel it. It's so random tho.. like few times a week only. I have T in both ears from head trauma. However I'm not concerned about ear drum random vibration.. it's the least of my worries.. My ENT has checked everything and got inner ear...

Mike.. sorry to hear about your 2nd accident. That's what I'm afraid of.. another head trauma and my T will spike. That's why I stay mostly home on weekends. My T has gone down especially after lumbar puncture. I only hear T at night when trying to sleep and in quite rooms... but that could...

Weirdly, I actually find relief in louder environments. My T is idiopathic (not noise or trauma induced), so I have no pain or actual ear damage. The noise is all coming from my brain. So louder environments, like the market, actually help me to forget about the ringing. It drowns out the noise...

First of all glad you are curious, most people don't care. In a nutshell tinnitus is disruption in the the auditory brain (pusatile tinnitus is not true tinnitus) Three most common causes of tinnitus 1: Hearing loss 2:TMD and (neck/jaw problems) 3: Direct trauma to the auditory brain itself...

This I think shows more than anything that tinnitus is more of a brain problem than ear problem. It may start with the ear, like an injury for example, but the noise is generated and sustained by the brain. I see that you have indicated that your tinnitus was caused by head injury and acoustic...

When I had HBOT the doctor asked me after a few sessions if I had any voices or screams, sounds that feel like ending of words in my head. She said she had some patients with this and they got worse. So I guess it must be pretty common. I'm seeing a psychiatrist and she wants me to take pills...

I don’t mean to diminish your problems but I wish mine had waited until my late 40’s I’m so sorry you are struggling as well though, none of us deserve this no matter how old we are.
