Tinnitus After a Door Slam — Looking for Similar Experiences

[poop]

I have had tinnitus for six months now after slamming a door close to my ear. I am hoping there is a chance it will go away.

I also wonder if anyone else has experienced tinnitus caused by a door slamming. I would have thought it was not loud enough to cause this if it had not happened to me.

Did you get tinnitus immediately after the incident, and how close were your ears to it?

Sorry to hear about that. I hope it proves to be only temporary, although six months is a long time for a single incident. It is possible that something else is going on, and the door slam may have been just a coincidence. Are you undergoing any scans or other investigations?
