I have tinnitus, ear fullness, and pain in my right ear after listening to loud music while drunk using my AirPods Pro.
I was hoping it would subside in a couple of days, but it does not seem to be getting better. When I checked the headphone exposure tracker on my iPhone, it showed that I was exposed to 89 dB for 2 hours and 45 minutes. I do use my headphones a lot and spend a significant amount of time on work calls. My total headphone use for the month is 77 dB over 2 days and 12 hours. Over the past 6 months, my exposure has been 69 dB for a total of 15 hours across 23 days.
I went to the doctor today, and she said she could not see any issue with my ears. She advised that it will take time to settle.
I have health anxiety, so I am posting here in the hope that others have had similar experiences and recovered.
