Is it possible for that tinnitus commercial on the radio to give me tinnitus?

Why would any radio station play that commercial? They play this loud, extended, whiny pitch, trying to duplicate what a person with tinnitus would hear. I’d bet they are creating customers. I instantly change the channel!

I’m with "Debbie’s angel" as I too have tinnitus & at times it litterly drives me crazy. NO, it’s NOT a bit funny, & I don’t know how they ever could duplicate the "real" noise it makes with that CONSTANT ringing in one’s ears. It has actually woken me up at nites sometimes it’s so loud. I did try one OTC med. for it, took the whole bottle, but of course NO relief. It just NEVER stops & seems to be worse first thing in the mornings & at nite. Guess that’s when things are the most quiet. But I’m constantly turning up the TV because I just cannot hear it above that high pitched ringing…:(
I would think not, I have it and although those noises are really annoying to us who suffer from it, it’s the sound inside that ear that really drives you crazy, whirring, ringing, high pitched noises, loud bangs its terrible
hearing it might mean u dont have it, yet??
No……If you are around any noise that bothers your ears, wear hearing protection or reduce noise levels. Keep ear plugs handy.
I’m sorry, did you say something, I have this loud ringing in my ears and can not hear anything. It may be tendinitis.
