Suddenly Developed Hyperacusis — Blocked Ear

Hi all,

I have suddenly developed H, it's not nice!

My T has also spiked considerably. This seems to have coincided with a slightly blocked ear which feels like it's on an airplane sort of, it's hard to explain! It makes a simjlar noise to your ear popping when trying to clear it, but feels like it doesn't pop.

Will this likely be tempoary and as a side effect of the blocked ear? Also is a blocked up ear normal? Like a pre-cold.

Thanks.

 

Also, when the Sounds make H and your ears hurt, is this causing damage? Or is it just the brain over reacting?

 

Have you gotten an answer to this? I'm am going through this same thing, and the horrible LOUDNESS of most things seems to be getting better, even as my T is super sensitive and fluctuating with noise levels. I'm trying to self-diagnose, but not getting very far.

 

Seems like it's just normal for peoplr with H. The first week was hard but I just exposed my self to normal sounds and it eventually faded. Only mild H at the moment, hope it stays that way. The worst thing with H is to over protect your ears but make sure you avoid loud sounds!
