Plugged and ringing ears after a party?

September 3rd, 2010

I went to a party last night and of course there was lots of loud music. At the end of the party, my ears felt plugged and were ringing, but I figured that after some time away from the music they would go back to normal. I came home around midnight, went to sleep and woke up with my ears still ringing and feeling plugged. I can hear things, but this feeling won’t go away. Is it still too early and I should just wait a bit more for them to go back to normal, or should I see a doctor?

Wait a little longer, temporary tinnitus can happen, i’ve have it myself however if it lasts longer than 5-7 days go and see your doctor

When you hear your ears ringing, what are you actually hearing?

September 3rd, 2010

Why do you feel the sensation of hearing when there is no noise? If I listen closely, I can always hear my ears ringing. Is that normal?

If this is a prolonged case that doesn’t go away, then you may have tinnitus. It’s an abnormal, yet prevalent condition that shouldn’t be too bad if it doesn’t constantly annoy you. You can go see the doctor to get it checked, but last I heard, any treatments for it are expensive.

Strange ear sensation after surgery?

September 3rd, 2010

I’ll do my best to keep this brief…

The six months following my wisdom teeth extraction have been difficult ones. As a result of what I was told was a “particularly difficult” extraction on the right side of my jaw, I’ve had sensitivity/hyperacusis in both my ears and persistent (but dull) TMJ pain on both sides of my face, but especially on the right.

Six months after my surgery I continue to feel a non-painful but annoying pressure sensation in my right ear that doesn’t go away when i “pop” my ears, swallow, etc. It’s quite uncomfortable, but about a month ago I had my ear checked out by an ear/nose/throat specialist following an infection and he said he saw no significant damage or symptoms that are unusual following an infection or major jaw surgery.

My question is, what might this pressure feeling be, and what can I do to get rid of it? I plan on meeting with the oral surgeon who worked on me as well as a TMJ specialist, and possibly another ear doctor as well.

Teeth are fed by blood vessels and nerves that go up through the roots. When the teeth are extracted, especially in "difficult" extractions, these surrounding tissues are severely traumatized. Most heal pretty fast except for the nerve tissues. They can take much longer.
During oral surgery the jaw is propped open – and wider than you normally open it. If the surgery was difficult it probably lasted longer than normal. I’m betting that the discomfort you’re feeling is in the TMJ rather than the ear and I’m betting that it’s a traumatized nerve. They’re all up there together and sensations can be referred from one area to another. TMJ pain is often felt as an earache.
I’m also gonna guess that you can’t do much to get rid of it. You’ll probably just have to wait for it to heal.
I’m not a doctor so my bets and guesses are just that. Hopefully you will get some answers when you meet with the good doctors.
Best of luck to you.

Fall Out Boy – I’ve Got All This Ringing In My Ears And None On My Fingers

September 1st, 2010

Fall Out Boy – I’ve Got All This Ringing In My Ears And None On My Fingers from the Album Infinity On High

Lyrics :

Youre a canary, Im a coal mine
Cause sorrow is just all the rage
Take one for the team
You all know what I mean

And Im so sorry, but not really
Tell the boys where to find my body
New York eyes, Chicago thighs
Pushed up the window to kiss you off

The truth hurts worse than anything I could bring myself to do to you
The truth hurts worse than anything I could bring myself to do to you

Do you remember the way I held your hand?
Under the lamp post and ran home
This way so many times
I could close my eyes

The truth hurts worse than anything I could bring myself to do to you
The truth hurts worse than anything I could bring myself to do to you

The truth hurts worse than anything I could bring myself to do
The truth hurts worse than anything I could bring myself to do to you
The truth
The truth

Curing Your Tinnitus

September 1st, 2010

http://tinnitusmiracles.wordpress.com/ In cases not involving aural trauma to the inner ear, hyperacusis can also be acquired as a result of damage to the brain or the neurological system. In these cases, hyperacusis can be defined as a cerebral processing problem specific to how the brain perceives sound. In rare cases, hyperacusis may be caused by a vestibule disorder. This type of hyperacusis, called vestibular hyperacusis, is caused by the brain perceiving certain sounds as motion input as well as auditory input. In some cases, vestibular hyperacusis can affect the autonomic system and cause problems such as loss of consciousness, mental confusion, nausea, or extreme fatigue.
