Acoustic Shock/Trauma — Help!

COYS · Apr 24, 2019

I’d say that’s quite a dismissive view of hyperacusis. People clearly experience different forms and severities of it. What constitutes true hyperacusis ? It’s not even medically defined ?

I can do DIY with ear protection and can go to a bar that’s 80-85db with ear plugs in. But cutlery aggravates my ears

Hi Juan,

Thanks for the reply.

I have no idea what is going on but certain noises do seem louder to me but its more percussive sounds such as cutlery clanging or glassware being put down.

The loudness of the noise isn't my biggest concern really its the fact that my ears pop/twitch when they hear these noises. Then they start to tickle/burn/ache (its a hard sensation to describe).

My tinnitus was very intrusive at first but it seems to be quieter or maybe I'm just getting used to it?

I went to a noisy restaurant that had music (85db-90db when i recorded it on my phone) but I had to leave after an hour as my ear started to hurt.

Thanks,

COYS

If you want to know the truth my TTTS from noise went away only like 1-2 months ago, but it was progressively getting better. (less spasms)

I still notice TTTS when I yawn sometimes, but noise doesn't trigger it.

I no longer have burning ear pain, I had that for 9 months, the first two months were hell, I had setbacks but I still have this numbness in my jaw and noise (trigeminal nerve irritability) from noise but my ear feels somehow don't feel pain or even fullness anymore.

That's why I keep saying there are different types of hyperacusis.

Did you have trouble hearing at all? I can’t hear whispers as loud as my good ear. To be honest my entire left ear has pressure and sounds at all frequencies are slightly quieter. When I whisper I can barely hear it unless I’m in a quiet room and then again it’s still faint. Not sure if this is from the shock...
