So glad I'm not the only one hearing crackling noises especially when water runs from the faucet or listen to high pitched music. I've had Tinnitus for about 5 years but it was a soft noise like a bunch of crickets in the night and I was used to it and didn't bother me anymore, but now all of a sudden 5 nights ago I heard the sound of like someone crushing cellophane paper or fire sparks cracking. My doctor saw fluid in my right ear and prescribed allergy tablets and Flonase but it hasn't helped. I googled my symptoms and found this forum. Is there any help out there?
