If anyone interested, this is the closest I got to a solution: How to Measure Earmuff Volume Regarding the Occlusion Effect? You can minimize...
Thank you! I'm eager to know.
Is there anyone who knows the answer?
I think sensitivity is in itself not, but prolonged exposure to high levels (anything above 85 dB) can probably cause it or make it worse.
Hi! I recently got myself an electric motorcycle. It's quiet as a whisper, my only concern is wind noise which I'm used to evading with earplugs....
That explains why the earplugs performed poorly in the old test. Still between the hand techniques there's inconsistency in efficiency. Probably...
How to protect hearing from loud noise using your hands This recent (above) study concludes the finger in the ear is the best method, but this...
When you don't have time to put on earmuffs or earplugs, what is the best scientifically proven method for protecting the ears? Palms over ear,...
How I imagine it in case it would work on humans at all: in case of a suspected noise damage you would get to the nearest pharmacy and get...
Maybe I misinterpreted the objective of the Tinnitus Talk Podcast. I think that these scientific topics are great for the sufferers who are hungry...
Can only researchers be voted for episode candidates? If not, I would suggest Grimes the musician. She has tinnitus and she is the girlfriend of...
Thanks for the clarification. Yes, I did simplify as I'm not an expert in the medical field, but with a little expertise in intellectual property....
Hey, a fellow BJJ practitioner here. Besides messing up my neck over close to a decade, I can tell it hasn't made my tinnitus worse. However, I'm...
They aren't (well, they actually have to until a new drug is cleared for the market), but they won't help these cheap potential remedies either....
Sure, I try to stay as reasonable as possible but everything is about money. If it is simply not viable, there is not a single pharma company that...
It may be a wild and borderline theory, but what if big pharma companies are sabotaging these drugs and trials because these compounds all have...
Hi! Since the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak, like most of you, I've been using hand and skin sanitizers (spray, gel, you name it) on my hands...
It would be nice if I could ride it :D I used to own an old Suzuki Gs550e, I loved that bike... I see yours is a street bike, that's cool! The...
Make sure you use proper double ear protection for an MRI (properly fitted foam earplugs on top of properly fitted earmuffs). Do not accept the...
Hi @superworm! It was me who asked for opinions about whether to give up riding or not. I really don't want to, but I have to, since I will not...
Sorry to hear that... I guess we all are in other ways. Deep bass in low frequencies goes through pretty much anything. Ear protection is useless...
@Kam75, before you try any new meds, go out and make yourself tired from exercise. You wrote you stopped sports. Go and bicycle for an hour, or do...
I'm not sure how much mercury a light bulb has, my guess is less than 0.5 g but if the bulb was hot and used before it was definitely in vapor...
Yes, you are right. Thermometers have 1.5 g - 2 g of mercury in them. They are neurotoxic for sure, in fact it's one of the most non radioactive...
Hi! Is there anyone here who have had a brief exposure to some form of household elemental mercury recently and had worsening of tinnitus or...
Thanks! I checked it, and they look nice, but pricey. I'm eyeing a brand called OX, their motorbike is around 5000 EUR.
Your bike is cool as hell too :) It looks like fun to ride on those dirt roads. I've tried dirt track racing once and it was awesome! Of course,...
Hi! I know it's been often discussed, but I'm looking for scientific data on what levels of noise can reach the inner ear via bone conduction. I...
Just had a Tesla 3 MRI (of course they found nothing). I brought my custom made earplugs plus there were earmuffs there that went on top of it....
The worst part is that for anyone with a certain hearing loss, their ear muscles don't trigger the stapedius reflex, which would take the edge off...
Hi! Long story short: Over a month ago I had an acoustic trauma followed by a spike. I had two intratympanic steroid injection treatments for...
In spine? Ouch! That must have been terrible. With oral steroids you can stop, that's true, but once the chemical makes the switch in your brain...
So a little update. I had 2 Intratympanic Dexamethasone steroid treatments last Friday and this Monday. The first one was a breeze, in 2.5...
Hi! Even though I only had Dexamethasone ITI treatment recently (2x), I would be against Lidocaine. Isn't it ototoxic? They use it for anesthesia,...
Thanks for the compliment on my name @Steph1710 ;) I want to thank you and @Tinker Bell for encouraging me on the forum I've been constantly...
That's a good idea! Thanks for taking the time to respond. I'm probably overreacting and everything will be fine. I will check back in and report...
Thank you @Tinker Bell and @Steph1710! I still haven't started it yet, but it would be 5 days 64mg and then tapering. I also was opting for...
Even the votes are not unequivocal.
Hi all! I'm 3 weeks in a pretty bad spike caused by an acoustic trauma (motorcycle exhaust backburn pop). I only noticed the spike 3 days later...
@Ken219 Thanks for the encouragement. Well initially my tinnitus was so low, I only heard it in a quiet room at night. Actually, I had a kind of...
@Michael Leigh thank you!
Hi! One week ago I was trying to start a motorcycle and it had an exhaust backfire. I was standing 1m away from the source. Definitely not as...
Hello all! I thought I won't have to return to this forum, but last week I had a pretty rollercoaster ride experience. I want to share my story...
