    Question for People with Tinnitus in One Ear Only

    Can you hear any T from your bad ear in your good ear? Like reverberations? Trying to figure out if I have very mild tinnitus in one ear, or if i'm just sensing the T from my bad ear when I plug my ear. Any opinions appreciated!

    How Can You Tell If You Truly Have Tinnitus in Both Ears?

    I have tinnitus from acoustic trauma, but its primarily in my left ear. When I'm in a somewhat quiet room, I hear it from the left side only, however if i plug my right ear or lay down on my pillow on the right side, I can hear the high pitch ringing. Question is: does this mean I really have...
