      Hello everyone! A neighbor was using an electric air blower next door (maybe 50 feet away), after about 30 seconds I was able to get earplugs in. Any chance this could spike tinnitus?

      Also, I looked up online how loud electric blowers are, and it looks like they’re 65-75 dB about 50 feet away. I should be fine, but does anyone have any input on it?

      :) thanks. I gotta remind myself that random loud events just happen, and no matter what I do I can’t control them.
