I just acquired tinnitus earlier this year. I believe it is the result of a month long ear blockage I had in January. The ringing is in the center of my head and it is maddening when it is quiet. Sometimes my head feels full, like inner ear fluid or something. My question is, if I find out what is causing the full feeling, and it is something that may be able to be drained or fixed somehow, is there a good chance the tinnitus will go away? I just keep fearing that the tinnitus is here to stay no matter what!

or if it can be harmful?

My dad has had tinnitus for a while, and its not a regular thing, the first 2 encounters were 10 years ago, then he had one about a year ago, and now he’s having another spell. Its really bad & the doctors don’t really have any medicine to give him, so he just sits there in pain for a week or 2, until it goes away on its on. What can we do to help? We try being quiet, but every little sound is huge. Are there any home remedies to this that we could try?! Thanks!

i have slight hearing loss in my right ear due to going shooting with my dad and not wearing ear protection ( we only shot 2 shots of a .308) my hearing was slightly impaired for a few days after but my left ear has fully healed. i have tinnitus in my right ear and only slight hearing loss i can hear people talking perfectly fine only quite very soft sounds i cant hear out of my right ear.. is this enough to make me fail a hearing test administered by the marines? there for denying my entry?

I have a doctors appointment today because I had a relapse in panic attacks/agoraphobia. I think my tinnitus (constant and very loud) triggered it, and my hearing aids were broken.

I was feeling normal for months until this week. I am on the maximum dose of Paxil, but my doctor is hesitant to prescribe me any anxiety medication. I don’t want to be dependent on meds either, but it would be good to have on hand in emergency

What other treatments are there? Anything I can suggest? How can I get my doctor to understand how painful my panic attacks are?

Long story short:

5 years ago my ex boyfriend punched my face in my car after a night out. I lost my four front teeth, had a punctured ear drum, and now have panick attacks and tinnitus. My doctor did tell me i have these symptoms becuase of the attacks.

It went to court and he pleaded not guilty but the case kept getting posponed. In the end the judge threw the case out becuase there we’re no witnessess, even though there were two police men who saw me after the attack bleeding. The judge said that they both couldnt come for various personal reasons, which i found quite strange.

Ive always thought that maybe my ex boyfriend had got away with what he did becuase he is very wealthy and well respected, he used to be a part of the local conservative party ( im from the UK)

I just want to know do you think i should try to sue him again or bring any court action, is it worth it and possible?

thanks x

any cure fr this? aside from a doctor

If you could include a link with this it would be appreciated. If not, just a yes or no. I want to know basically over the last 10 years if it is on the increase.

My father has been dealing with a ringing in his ear for a long time and believes it’s from stress. He also gets a lot of headaches. He’s visited doctors but they all tell him the same thing!…that there’s nothing wrong with it. He’s fed up with the doctors and doesn’t want to see another one. He’s heard about Neem Oil to help but is not sure about it. What can we do about his situation, to make the ringing stop!?

Yesterday I noticed that my right ear felt full, almost stopped up. About an hour later it started ringing, and when someone talks, or when hearing something on tv, there is a high pitch noise. I have pretty bad sinus problems, and I thought maybe my ears were backed up, but would that cause tinnitus? Or could I have an ear infection? My right ear also hurts throughout the day on and off. Please help. Thanks.
