Air Travel... Should I Be Worried?

I am planning a trip out west to do some snowboarding in Alberta, I live in Ontario. I am pretty sure I have noise induced T from loud music over the years. Its a hissing sound in both years. I am curious about flying, will it be safe, can it get worst, how can I prepare?

i did a few flights this year i have noise induced T aswell i just had a short spike after

 

Hi @JAKUB, I have noise-induced T as well. I would do the following, where possible, but overall, I wouldn't worry much. If your ears don't adjust to pressure well, you might have some slightly louder T after from that.

1. Get a seat ahead of the wing and away from the window
2. Try flight earplugs for noise reduction and pressure (do not used closed earplugs - such as foam ones)
3. Take some kind of decongestant prior to the flight and some multi-vitamins

Safe travels to you!

 

Such as these?

Hi @JAKUB, we just had a long discussion about this on another thread. You will see my long post down toward the end of the thread. I am very cautious about flying (reasons why explained in the post) and I follow a pretty strict protocol -- which is pretty much what @awbw8 suggested, too.

And yes, those ear plugs you linked to are the ones. Read the instructions first! And if you have small ear canals, buy the ones for kids.

 

THANKS YALL!
