Have you tried using white noise? Helps a few people, do try it.

@Jade; I was wondering where you went, hadn't seen any posts by you recently. Great to see you doing good! Keep up that attitude, good luck! ;)

Yes, that is completely normal for every human being to experience. Everyone gets those quite frequently. Normally, people totally ignore it. It's...

@Markku Yeah, that should do. And she won't be going to any loud rock concerts, she's a classical singer. So nothing to worry about. Thanks for...

@Markku; Nice suggestion. I was just thinking about that too, getting both foam and the Alpine earplugs. I'll get them both. When she's exposed to...

@Markku; Which according to you is a better choice? Foam or regular ones? The traffic noise does irritate everyone around here. People constantly...
