Hi! I've had tinnitus for 6 months now. Hearing test detected permanent hearing loss in both ears at certain frequencies above 3,000 Hz. In my right ear, I get a whooshing sound resembling what I can only deduce as an ear pressure issue. It occurs when outdoors during windy conditions. It also happens when talking to certain people face to face (i.e. not remotely on phone etc.). It seems to be when the other person's voice is louder than average.
Anyway, would be interested to know if this is classic tinnitus symptom or perhaps something else.
As an aside and might be relevant, I go to a Chiropractor for spine manipulation due to lower back hernias and Sciatica. He says he is 95% certain the tinnitus is due to blood circulation issues in the cervical (neck) area.
As we know, tinnitus isn't necessarily a symptom of hearing loss. Thanks!
