Avatar m tn I've been trying to get to the bottom of this and I've asked on other forums but got no replies. I am hoping to get some replies here. I am 25. For 11 years straight, I have had problems with my right ear since I got an ear infection after a bout of flu. In recent years however my symptoms have worsened exponentially and it is getting me very concerned. The ringing in my right (bad) ear is constant.
Avatar f tn I have been on Suboxone for 6 years...I wondering if anyone has any type of ear problems from it!? Or have experienced ringing, buzzing, whooshing noises. I have lost 170 pounds and different things have popped up over the years....I'm very healthy, weigh 130 pounds, but I'm going to lose my mind from this unknown source! The House Ear Clinic is doing a lot of trial and error? Anyone out there that can relate?

Avatar n tn I did a bunch of research on google about ear ringing and I see all these horrible stories about tinnitus and how it can put such a big impact on someones life. I'm just so worried, like I said it's really not bad at all during the day it's almost like it's not there, it seems like only at night when I cover my ear on a pillow or something I can hear it the most. Thank you.
Avatar f tn Does anyone know if there is any correlation between ear ringing and heart racing and cellphone towers being put everywhere?
Avatar n tn I have had the annoying ear fluttering for many years, and my regular doctors have been clueless. Finally I may go to an ENT, but I did some research on line and found this: http://www.emedicine.com/ent/TOPIC235.HTM My fluttering seems to be a type of muscular tinnitus, perhaps caused by deterioration of some nerves in the area after some type of injury and/or muscle spasm. What to do?
Avatar m tn Phlegm in the throat can be caused by post nasal drip and is very common. Ringing in the ear(s) (Tinnitus) can be caused by certain medications or problems with the inner ear. Did you address the ringing with your doctor? It would be best to see and ENT (ear, nose and throat) doctor for this. But I've had ringing in both of my ears for many years and have been told there is nothing that can be done. I do take an antidepressant and that may be my cause.
Avatar n tn Hi, this could be swollen lymph node due to either ear or throat infection. Ringing in ears is mainly due to middle or inner ear pathology. Ringing is the symptom of some underlying disease. Causes like wax, middle ear effusion, external ear infections, brain pathology all causes tinnitus or ringing. To pin point the cause, an evaluation from ENT surgeon is must. A course of antibiotic like cephalosporins along with anti inflammatory drugs usually are prescribed for ear infection.
Avatar m tn In the mean time, shower with really warm water and let your ear soak in it. Although the ringing will not stop completely, it will help. I also slept without a pillow for circulation around the ears...it also helped.
Avatar f tn (I had also lost much of the hearing in my left ear, which is why they did so many tests. One thing’s for sure, I still hear the ringing!) You mention a “swooshing” sound, and I recall experiencing something similar when the hearing problems just started. I would get a swooshing sound in my left ear, sometimes with bursts of clicking/popping sounds, especially when I first stood after sitting or lying down for some time.
Avatar n tn I don't have TMJ, but have had ear ringing for a long time, with Lyme. Mainly in one ear. It gets louder in the afternoons, and even louder in the evening. No idea why, but it's the least of my worries. When I started taking Cat's Claw, I notice that whatever is stuffed up inside burbled a bit and seemed to open up some. In me, I think it's inflammation, but haven't pursued it with the MD. Good luck! Let us know what you find out.
Avatar n tn Low blood pressure is a possibility. However if you had episodes of tinnitus or ringing in the ear, Marijuana will only worsen it. You can read more about the causes of tinnitus on: http://stason.org/TULARC/health/body/tinnitus-ringing-ears/4-What-causes-tinnitus.html It looks like the episode of marijuana triggered an existing problem. In a way it is good. Now you will be able to get a diagnosis. Hope this helps. It is difficult to comment beyond this at this stage.

Avatar n tn I have ringing in my ears and I am losing my hearing. This has been going on for about three months.I have seen a doctor a couple of times and he tells me there is nothing that can be done. He says that no surgery will help,only that hearing aids might limit the noise.My insurance will not cover hearing aids and this ringing is driving me crazy. Is my doctor telling me the truth. Is there a possibilty that surgery will stop this ringing?
1425451 tn?1282773589 Hi, i am 21 years old male i was hammering a metal about 2 days ago i wasn't wearing ear plugs or anything. I hit the hammer on the edge of metal the noise just went inside my ear it plugged it for about 4 mins and i had the ringing noise i thought it will go away, but it has been 3 days since its still ringing a little bit when i close my right ear. It's only on my right ear now it feels like my right ear got a little plugged and is still ringing though.
Avatar m tn hey everyone, for the last 5 days i've had ringing in what appears to be my left ear but may also be my right ear. before they started ringing i had a pulse or popping in my right ear that went away at the onset of the ringing, i've seen my doctor and she took a quick look inside both ears and said my ear drums were bulging and red or dark colored. she said it was allergies and prescribed my a $50.

20831338 tn?1527265641 2 months ago I noticed a ringing in my left ear. Round about that time I had an inflammation in my throat as well for 3 weeks solid. But The ringing went away again, came back after maybe 2 weeks and went again. But since last week its constant. Also, the left cheekbone area feels as if it was bruised when i touch it. My doctor said I should put oil in my ear because she saw ear wax inside my ear (though my hearing hasn t changed). She couldn t see an inflammation.

1063764 tn?1272821064 I was watching a documentary and heard about a case where a woman was put on niacin supplements for depression. She was taking very large dosages, but it completely pulled her out of her depression. So far fluoxetine has helped me, but I think in time I will need a larger dosage. I would really rather not do that, so my question is: is it safe to take niacin supplements of 100 mg daily plus an extra multivitamin with 20mg. I don't want to end up taking too many vitamins.
