Who here /tinnitus/?
How long have you had it and how has it changed overtime? Better/worse or stayed the same, and why? I've had it for a year and I swear it is only getting worse even though I stopped going to any concerts or using earbuds/headphones completely.

I have. Apparently I have some ETD. Taking Flonase to hopefully stop it.
Almost 5 months now, the buzzing got significantly reduced after seeing an audiologist & getting rid of earwax. It's really mild I can only hear it in quiet rooms but trying to sleep in complete silence is still pretty hard
I've had it since I was like 14, I'm pretty sure it was a loud concert that did it, just one. I guest some people are more sensitive to developing it than others.
It used to be pretty bad to the point where I was searching for cures and supplements, that are probably snake oil anyway. But eventually it got better and now I barely notice it. Whether it actually got better or I just got used to it I can't say, but it doesn't really matter either way I guess.
I had earwax too. That's what started it. It was so loud then I could easily hear it over a 100dB freeway. Now I can only hear the tinnitus at 45dB max, but it was reduced to 37dB earlier.
Just plug your ears and measure it out overtime. That's what I've been doing and why I can say mine has been getting louder.
Fuck that has got me worried. My left ear been sort of blocked for months, it's pretty tempremental and pressing downwards on my jaw clears it temporarily, which leads me to believe it's just wax. If you can get tinnitus like this I'll deffo get it syringed.
Good because impacted earwax is a huge cause of tinnitus. However if you get it fixed shortly after tinnitus onset then the tinnitus will most likely completely go away. Be sure to use earwax drops 3 days before you get your ears syringed or else it could cause tinnitus/make it worse permanently from damage.
I've had constant slight tinnitus in my right ear for a couple years now. Sounds like a CRT TV.
Don't get your ear syringed. It's loud enough to overload your hearing and when I got it done it shot the wax around and cut my ear canal, clogging it with dried blood for two months until an ENT could dig it out. Ask the doctor to refer you to an ENT, it might take a while to get in but it's worth it. You can also try oil drops but I haven't had experience with those yet.
