I think I might have a conductive hearing loss. For the last 2 weeks I’ve been struggling to properly “hear” however, my audiogram shows normal hearing (especially for my age, I’m 21). I’m going to insert my audiogram: My ears are in intense pain all the time and they almost feel numb...

Hey everyone! After 2-3 months of ear fullness my ears are finally opening up! I’m a bit concerned about noise though as I noticed my ears are quite sore so everything I hear kind of hurts. Any advice on how to protect my ears? I don’t want to put earplugs in because I don’t want to...

Hey everyone, I developed hyperacusis 7 days ago from a hearing exam. Since then I feel like I can’t hear that well although my hearing is “normal”. It’s not that I can’t hear, things are all just slightly quieter. I’m not sure if the tympani muscle is stuck in my ear (I don’t have any...

Hi everyone, I’ve been dealing with a handful of ear issues lately, if you’ve seen my previous posts you’d know. I’ve been using the Mimi app every few days to test my hearing and had previously had no problems with it. Three days ago I was testing my hearing and was also extremely nervous and...

Hi everyone, Following an ENT appointment I was at home when all of a sudden I started to feel slightly dizzy. I started to freak out because I wasn’t sure what was causing my dizziness and I started to panic. Shortly after my left ear became extremely full and I panicked even more because I...

Hey everyone, I’ve been dealing with tinnitus for the last two months. After an ear cleaning in August (one ear only), I experienced my first "vertigo" attack. I don't think the room was spinning, nor did I feel nauseous, I just felt extremely off when I woke up in the middle of the night...

Hey everyone! So, I know I've posted a lot on here regarding my ear experience. I went from developing tinnitus after a mild concussion to getting hyperacusis and tinnitus after an ear cleaning. After reading @Marceline's post about her acoustic shock following a tympanometry, I noticed her...

Hi everyone! I was just wondering if anyone here experienced a decrease in volume in one of their ears following an acoustic trauma/shock? The reason I ask is because ever since my trauma, there is a reduction of volume in my left ear along with some fullness. When I swallow I can really...

Hey everyone. After a few weeks of researching what was going on with me, I finally came to the conclusion that I'm suffering from Acoustic Shock. This, was of course, due to an ear irrigation in my left ear. I have all the following symptoms which fall into this category: - Tinnitus (however...

Okay, I've posted enough times now to get annoying, sorry about that. The thing is, when I put my ear on a pillow and I talk, the sound of my own voice isn't as deep or clarified as it used to be? I asked my boyfriend if he had that also but he said no... I tried looking this stuff up online...

I don’t know how to explain this. My hearing was fine until I decided to get my left ear irrigated due to impacted earwax. Prior to the cleaning I already had mild tinnitus. My doctor said it would be safe. The procedure itself was very painful and there was a spike in my tinnitus during the...

Hey guys! I know I ask a lot of questions, but was wondering if you screaming can cause tinnitus or amplify it? I’m asking because I have tinnitus in my right ear from a mild concussion, but I was so enraged and annoyed by the ringing I went on a “screaming-crying rampage” so to say. I woke up...

Hey guys. Very worried girl here. I got my left ear cleaned with a weird tube thingy (they used water pressure to take out the wax) even though I told them I was suffering from ringing. Needless to say the water was PAINFUL and my ear rang like crazy :( I’m now worried that I made my...

Hi everyone! I had stumbled upon this forum a number of times in the last few weeks (reading mostly about how tinnitus is permanent) and kind of hid away for a bit. I thought since it’s been 2 weeks it’s about time I introduce myself to everyone since I believe that tinnitus might just be in my...
