This is only anecdotal, but from my experience, a sinus problem or a cold is more likely to aggravate tinnitus than amoxicillin, so it might be a coincidence. I've taken lots of amoxi over the years with no problems, however, I'm sure you could find someone on the net who's had a negative...

Good point. I spent a fair bit of time on here when mine started, but since it faded a lot, and I got used to it somewhat, I've almost forgot about this place. So yeah, there could be people out there whose tinnitus has gone, who forgot about forums years ago.

I read something ages ago that described a weird technique to improve tinnitus by doing an odd combination of ear-tugging and swallowing with the head tilted back, all at the same time. I think there was more to it, but I can't find it

I'm no Dr Butt,....(these are very uneducated suggestions, in other words): Sinus issues can cause pain in upper teeth; you may have a moderate sinus condition without realize. There's a slight chance that tooth pain is your ONLY noticeable symptom of TMJ. You may have a slight neck issue...

Firstly, I probably should say that I'm one of the "lucky" ones whose tinnitus has been intermittent, pretty much from the start -- well, after the first 2 or 3 days. I'd like to give people hope, but not false hope, but anyway, these days, the frequency ("often-ness", not the pitch :D)...

You'll most likely get some of the regular ear-related answers (sinus, eustachian tube, etc), but here's a couple of extra ones from left field in the mean time: TMJ dysfunction (transmandibula joint). The following symptoms are amongst those on the long list on the link: Ear Pain/Ear...

I said much of the following on another topic somewhere, but.... I once read that loud bass of drums can vibrate through the skull and into the inner ear, triggering or aggravating tinnitus that's already there. I'm a part-time muso with intermittent tinnitus (it never totally goes away, but...

Mine tempororily increased a little when I was freaking out over losing all my credit cards a couple of weeks ago

I'm also suspicious that alcohol may aggravate my tinnitus, but I have a hunch it may be due to being dehydrated.

Hmm, it is on this list, but this list seems to have 'everything' (550 drugs) http://hearinglosshelp.com/articles/pdf/TinnitusDrugList2013.pdf

Here's some more uneducated info from me: Tinnitus coming on during sleep -- could it be sinus-related? Do you have an sinus block, and/or does your ear ever feel blocked or stuffed up? if so, perhap Google: "sinuses eustachian tube dysfunction tinnitus". How about acid reflux? I've read...

My uneducated guess is that the worse thing for tinnitus in that situation is possible minor jaw joint damage from lying with your mouth way open for a long time. While not related to my tinnitus, I had lower wisdom tooth filled once, and having my mouth open almost as wide as possible for...

Yep, foam plugs are pretty good, but sometimes they're not enough. New ones work better; after using them a few times they tend to lose some of their "expandability" and thickness/waxiness. Also, the db ratings are either the maximum reduction at one narrow frequency range, or an average...

I've read the following, and I reckon it's true: 'volume' is one thing, but pounding from low frequencies (obviously bass and drums) can vibrate through the skull, straight into the inner ear. So, plugs can protect from the lo-mids, mids and highs, but not always the lows. I'm a "former"...

My situation is somewhat similar. I suspect that my tinnitus has something (at least, partly) to do with a minor neck injury and, on the days that it starts early, I think I've either done something to my neck when I was sleeping, or "click" it when I do a big "wake-up stretch/yawn". If not...
