Tinnitus and excess mucus
Posted , 26 users are following.
This started a week ago at night I started getting ringing sensation in both my ears which persisted that night and wouldn't let me sleep went to the Ent department and got diagnosed as eustachian tube blockage as I had popping of ears and had to constantly swallow so that the ears feel better had a Pure tone audiometry done which should no hearing loss then had a tympanomarty which showed a bit increase in the middle ear pressure got prescribed with anti histamine and antibiotics any idea when the tinnitus goes it has decreased ro an extent it doesn't disturb but if I close my ears I can hear it anyone experienced the same?

i have had the syptoms just like you since 6.5 weeks ago
i was wondering if you could help me with some questions..
was your tinnitus constant?
you ears were popping only when swallowing?
Did you experience some sorta constant congestion?
Thank you, hope you keep on getting better

Popping It increased on swallowing
And I there was post nasal drip which has decreased ryt now don't worry stay calm it will go if it's due to nasal congestion o any allergy

Even mine was like the 90's tv sounds and had muffled hearing and increased
sensitivity
If u can hear it put earphones and play some songs 50% volume let ur mind get distracted and tell ur self hang in there better days r gonna come đ

Yesterday i went to my ENT specialist and wants me to get and Audiogram.
hes 100% sure my problem is due to ETD, but he doesnt find good that the tinnitus hasnt stop at least for a few moments, i mean i have my good days like right now where i can bearly hear it.
but these past week was bad D: but i guess its normal to have the noise sometimes loud and sometimes really faint.
thats why i asked you if yours was constant or that if you had "total silent" moments
thank you for your attetion,
i hope you fully recover really soon :DÂ

yes i know, but to be honest if i get the audiogram and its shows or not shows hear losss, the doctors wont be able to do much....
so im just coping with it...
but im being positive if its ETD it surely will go away with time :D

to be honest, this week has been great so far...
i dont have a runny nose, but everyday i feel like if i had the flu, very congested...in the nose area.
my ears pop and crack everytime i swallow.
and my constant 24/7 noise, sometimes low and sometimes loud like a 90s tv set.
how have you beeen?

and yes i used to listen to music, concerts, bars etc.
i dont rule out hearing loss, but to be honest... the way T appeared out of the blue during a free music , bar, weekend...all of the sudden...its what i dont understand...

But after everything is fine I think we'll just have to learn to live with it, just make sure it not due to hearing loss as that might indicate u need to wear protection
