Do you just wake up and its better? Or does it go down during the day?
Took a nap with my cat using him like a pillow, he was purring. Got up and my ringing was replaced with an ocean in a very long tube sound.
@Flowergirl Guess I'm lucky, only had 1 spike that lasted a few days, all others go away after I sleep.
It doesn't happen when I burp, but it does if I try to blow my nose, or even just exhale hard through my nose. It's actually how I got tinnitus...
I know a few people who got T from head injury, they all got T immediately. I would guess you are probably ok.
Momentary spikes when I open my jaw. Ear feels like it goes deaf for a second. Been using a nightguard for a year. Anyone have any ideas?
They work for me
Just want to add my 2 cents. I basically live to work out these days. I lift heavy and intensely, both compounds and isolations. I even do neck...
That's very interesting, I remember reading someone else on this site experienced the same thing. Out of curiosity, did you also have earplugs...
Tbh I never did. I always loved silence. Even as a teenager I would spend hours just walking out in the middle of nowhere listening to all the...
@Steph1710 How did you pop them? Valsalva?
@Ngo13 I understand, I gave up on hope probably a year ago. It seems to be part of the road to acceptance as I was making no progress in that...
It's weird. When my T would spike to an 8, I'd actually fall asleep faster, I felt relieved knowing it would be lower in the morning. Then I'd...
I spent a lot of time compiling forum posts a couple years ago of people who improved. Most of them improved after 6 months, one guy recovered...
For me the mindset began to set in (not fully there yet) after I realized I either have to die or keep going, and I realized that I wasn't ready...
I understand how hard it is, especially soon after the onset. I seriously considered suicide every day for probably 6 months. I can say that...
I coughed fluid into my Eustachian tubes causing severe tinnitus. It did get better after 3 months, but has been stuck at a lower level for almost...
Same boat. I was actually sleeping well a week ago and now it's lucky if I can get a couple hours.
Well I've tried just about everything else, I'll let you all know if it works.
Probably Eustachian tube issues. Partial blockage due to something like inflammation.
It's one of those things where you either keep going or you don't. Personally I try to stay busy, do things that take up all of my concentration,...
I lift weights 6 days a week, lots of heavy compounds and some isolations. 99 days out of 100 it doesn't affect my T, couple times a year I might...
When you have a momentary spike, do you feel a physical sensation along with it?
Any noticeable crackling, popping, etc. sounds when you swallow? You will hear it right in the ear, not in the throat.
Ok that's good it isn't a constant factor, meaning I'd guess it probably isn't due to damage or something worsening. I know that anytime I wake up...
Does it happen every single night? I've experienced this a couple times, though it is luckily not often.
In the nearly three years I've browsed this forum and other parts of the internet, I have seen many cases of acoustic trauma healing over time, I...
ETD would click/pop/crackle when you swallow or flex your throat in a way that would open the tubes, also yawning.
The sounds in this video blocks the tinnitus sound for me and helps me concentrate or get a little reprieve. Some people hate it, and it takes...
I'd cut off two fingers to have static instead of the ring.
Hard to tell, but my left will spike while the right doesn't, so I put left.
That vid helps me get a little break sometimes when I need it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4LZv3ta13Ws&ab_channel=ArtofZen-RelaxingMusicandAudio Turn speakers off before clicking link. Then lower the...
I can't recommend any mental health professionals, but I can tell you that the beginning is the hardest part and most difficult to manage...
I had burning pain for about two months after onset. Then it went away in the right ear, and couple days later went away in the left. Then maybe...
Anyone here shoot at ranges? How do you protect your ears? I'm thinking earplugs under earmuffs, think that will be enough?
Just to be clear it didn't stay low, so don't get any ideas.
@Nadia231 Almost never, even under extreme strain like maxing a deadlift. Could it be a change in weather?
Meds made me pass out while standing, hit my head just above and behind the ear. Over about 5 sec. my T reduced to a pleasantly light hiss.
@kingsfan Oh shit I'm not sure if I should tell people to try the saline now.
@kingsfan I also had the fullness sensation and it would always get substantially worse along with the spike. I found that sometimes I could get...
@kingsfan interesting that its evening when it gets worse, because that was almost always the case with mine as well. Reasonable in the morning,...
When I first got T and it was at it's peak volume I would lay down with my ear on the pillow and it would be so loud that it felt like it was...
It's common for EDM artists to wear headphones while they perform. You can get ones that act like earmuffs that will play the music in the...
I am trying to figure out what is going on with my ears and Eustachian tubes. I have a strange sensation when I do the Valsalva where my right ear...
According to the data presented by the CDC as well as other foreign entities equivalent to the CDC, those who die with COVID-19 have multiple...
Yes it can go down, but prepare for the worst case mentally.
Might be a lack of contrast with outside sound that causes it to be hard to hear the tinnitus with both ears plugged.
I know someone who got very sick from just one. The good news is that they ended up recovering so I think you are right about time being the...
I'm sorry you are going through this. How many shots did you take?
Is it a crackling when you swallow or just a random crackling?
Did the weather change? I had a huge spike when it got cold and almost rainy all of a sudden after it was hot for a few days.
Glad to hear this!
Well this is weird. I seem to be the only one here whose tinnitus improves with earplugs. It's actually something I do when I am overwhelmed. I...
My two cents: I've been using earplugs every night for four or five years and haven't had any issues because of it. I asked a few doctors I've...
You can hmu if you want, if you just recently got T you are in the hardest part.
@Nadia231 Yes luckily it is back to baseline, thanks for asking. The spike lasted for probably 7 hours. It's so weird because I haven't had a...
Massive spike in left ear, happened sometime when I was in the gym. Ear feels plugged up and almost wet inside. Any ideas what I did?
I couldn't find any that specifically uses the combination of yawning and Valsalva, but there are a lot about the Valsalva. I might make a video...
This is a minor success but I want to share it because I have seen absolutely no improvement anywhere else, except once two months after onset....
