Acoustic shock from playing guitar with headphones
So basically, my tinnitus started about 3 months ago and I had initial symptoms of TTTS and dysacusis which disappeared over the span of 2 weeks.

One month later the dysacusis and TTTS came back. It was initially mild but began to get worse on a daily basis starting Thursday last week.

This is really frightening me since I've been protecting my ears and all and I'm not sure why it's progressively getting worse.
 
Hi

Too much silence makes my TTTS worse. As can too much noise. Gentle masking sounds seem to help it best.

Where are you spending most of your time, can I ask? When I'm in the office, that's when I have the most trouble with eardrum flutter and pressure. I'm probably protecting too much, because there are a few laughing hyenas in my open plan office who would probably spike my tinnitus if I let them get too close. I'm lucky enough that I can work from home pretty much whenever I want at the moment, thanks to an understanding boss, which lets me control my own environment and the sounds I hear.

Hope things improve for you.
