I had an infection in my wisdom teeth. I took antibiotics and got better. For many reasons, I didn’t have the surgery to have them removed afterward.

The infection is back. I have all of the same symptoms as before, but they’re much worse this time.

When I open my mouth, there is a lot of pain. I have a hard time opening my mouth and chewing food. I’ve been having issues with vertigo and tinnitus. I’m nauseated and have a bad head ache every day, especially near bed time. I can’t hear well out my my right ear. It pops(not crackling, though) when I yawn, but it hurts(and it usually doesn’t). Fluid continues to drain out but it doesn’t help my hearing.

So I was wondering if anyone has experienced or heard of pericoronitis causing labrynthitis.

The doc will figure it out soon enough, I’m just wondering mainly for my own amusement, and if I should be taking aspirin or not, lol.

Thank you!

P.S. I’ll be seeing a doctor in 3 weeks and a dentist after that.. So anyone with the advice of "GO SEE A DOCTOR!!!1!!!!1" I’m on it, thanks.

I have extremely bad tinnitus. It started a few months ago in September when i started reading the book "Musicophilia" by Oliver Sacks. He mentions tinnitus in his book and i realized that i’ve had tinnitus for quite a few years now. But now it only occurs when i am feeling upset or extremely nervous. My tinnitus is either a C, C#, D, or Eb and it’s volume increases with how upset i am. is there anyone else that has this and how can i stop it?

I have tinnitus, which we all know is a ringing in the ears. I need to stop ear ringing, because it is really starting to bother me. So, what is the best way that I can naturally cure the ringing in my ears? The faster I can stop ear ringing, the better!

Im 19 and went to a drum and base gig on Wednesday night. My left ear is still ringing today (Sunday) 3 and a half days later.

I know there is no cure for tinnitus and I know that I have done at least some permanent damage to my ears.

Can anyone tell me the liklihood of this being permanent and if not how long it may take to go away?

I have a cyst in my brain that has been causing severe tinnitus (ringing in the ears) for the past four years. It has been getting progressively more noticeable and is giving me problems when I’m trying to sleep.

I usually am not able to get to sleep until very late at night, usually 2 or 3am.. I’ve tried every type of remedy to relive the noise and nothing has worked. I’ve even used sleep aids in the past but I ended stopping so I wouldn’t become dependent on them.

Any tips on helping me to either get rid of the tinnitus or helping me fall asleep easier?

I just can’t stand this anymore, battling with tinnitus for months and it almost kill me. Been searching for tinnitus remedies and I would like to ask for help. Sometimes my left ear blocked and I couldn’t hear anything in it. Anything can stop my ear ringing problem? I had tried many medical and drug but it can only control but not cure it completely, any alternative remedies for tinnitus? Arrggh… life is hard.

ok in 2005 i was told i have a colesteatoma in my right ear. well i had the surgery to have it removed and the 2nd one to have my ear rebuilt. now my question is, tinnitus is a common side effect and lucky me i have it. it was just random but now all i hear is my heart beating in it and the sound is as if someone is blowing into my ear. i have never regained my hearing fully and i don’t know whats wrong. please someone familiar with cholesteatomas please help.

First, let me state I have no objection, nor do I have the right to object to anyone taking legally prescribed drugs for whatever condition. If it were my minor child, I think I would have a right to input. That is not the issue.
Nursing school. Drilled into our heads drugs. State
could get busted for possession if you take a drug
to authorities. Illegal drugs were not an issue in
our home, we were not illegal drug users. Much taboo about psych drugs. I could not care less if it is legally
prescribed by a competent medical care provider.
Unknown to me, someone has an agenda with me.
I was cleaning our closet, this is the semester prior to graduating from nursing school. In a shoe, in the closet I found a bottle, unmarked, unlabeled of pills. I do not
know for absolute sure what they were. Full bottle.
I panicked. Full panic, blind panic, I said a bad word, and ran
to the commode, dumped and flushed. I did not take one of them, I did not take one out of the bottle. Had my husband been home I would have talked to him about them right then and there. He did have tinnitus
from smoking for many many years. He had cut down from four packs when we married, to one pack a day when home of Carlton extra lights. I would have had no objection to his taking a legal drug. He was a grown man with all the rights to whatever anyone else had,
needless to say. But as I said,
I panicked. Then, out of fear again, thinking I am
being set up because so much was going on, I called some ladies I knew who were with law enforcement.
Told them I found this, and that I did not take them.
I mentioned no names. I was trying to protect myself
I was so close to graduation.

My husband never missed those pills. Never said a word. Never acted like he knew a thing. Very puzzing.
Then I started thinking. I know those pills had been in the closet for at least 3 years. I can retrospectively tell you everyone who knew they were there, probably including, but not for sure people in college.
Could I have been busted for possession? Where
would I have taken them. If they were Xanax, and
they looked sort of like the light blue Xanax or a pill
for dizziness. I am almost sure they were Xanax.
That is a schedule four controlled drug. No label.

Listen up . I was in college.
Female. Old joke, looking for your MRS. degree.
No . I had one and I wanted to keep it. No plans for
divorce whatsoever. I had a recipe file box. Got it
when I read a book written by a preacher’s wife.
No. I never tried to be like anyone else. We were very
active in church for many years. My husband
I believe considered the clergy. I emulate no one.
Nor do, or did I envy or copy them.
She talked about her housekeeping system. I adopted
some of it. In this box, I had birthdays, holidays,
yearly chores, monthly, weekly , daily chores according to month or day. Did I do all this routinely?
No. I am not a compulsive housekeeper, I am also
not anal. I am not fixated anywhere. Not. Zilch.
It came in handy for the bds, etc. and I knew all the time what needed to be done. If I got into housecleaning mode, I had a list of things overdue, and current to pick from. It was really neat.
Some one took it upon themselves to defend my husband in case I divorced him. They were inspecting my housekeeping. I found the pills when I cleaned the bottom of the closet, straightening the shoes.
They also found my list of canning and freezing
which I kept from year to year: Made 80 jars of corn last year; Used it all. Make more this year, etc.
Well. I was not planning to divorce. My husand did
not ever complain about the house. My kids and I could
clean the house top to bottom in an hour and it look
neat as a pin, and do deep cleaning in about three
hours of every room. I usually did it,because I wanted to do so.

What do you think? Could I have been busted?
Also, I have never heard the end of this. No one, no one, as usual ever mentioned the pills. No one.
Not one single person. Could that be guilt?

Yes. You can be busted in your home. It happens every day. Every day.
Yes. You can be busted in your home. It happens every day. Every day.

So basically I went to a techno concert last Sunday and I guess I was next to really loud bass speakers the whole time for around 3 hours. On the way home I realized my ears have a weird ringing to it, kind of like a white noise. I thought it would go away but it’s still here and it’s been 4 days now. The volume of the white noise decreased but when a room is dead quiet I can still hear it. And I’m only 17 too, so this really sucks because it’s so hard to concentrate in classrooms with the annoying buzz/ring! Does this seem like tinnitus or what?

A few years ago I gave up paganism and became a born again Christian. I went the whole 9 yards, burning my occult books, getting rid of questionable music, and listening the Christian music exclusively. I attended church every Sunday, and sometimes Wednesdays, as well.

One day, I was going through my prayer list on the Prayer Pal program on my Palm Pilot, and praying to Jesus when I heard a roaring noise in my right ear. It really scared me, as it sounded just like someone blowing in my ear. When it kept happening I figured out that I was hearing my own heartbeat, and the blood rushing through my arteries.

Its been close to 8 years now, and I still hear this distracting noise for a good portion of each day. Its called pulsatile tinnitus. Whoosch, whoosch, whoosch. I’ve been to numerous specialists, and undergone about ,000 in tests over the years, and nobody can find a cause or provide a solution.

Jesus has done nothing to cure me through faith, and in fact it first happened WHILE I was praying to him. Never, while I was faithful, did I get relief from this problem.

Ok, this is a sorta long story but I just want to get all the symptoms out there. I am a 20 year old healthy, happy, confident male suffering from headaches, panic attacks, and other strange symptoms. I have always been very physically fit, happy, confident and hardworking guy that came from a great household. It just doesn’t make sense that I am having anxiety problems. About 3 months ago, I developed a very severe tension headache I believe was caused by TV, studying, too much video games, and stress. It lasted for almost a month and was so debilitating I was throwing up and was not able to function in my daily activities…..like college! It was terrible

I went home and after a week of being home the headaches went away, for about 3 days I was finally waking up and going to bed without a headache. Well my dumbass went to a party and got 2 hours of sleep and drank a fair share. I woke up the next day with a strange balloony pressure in my temples that didn’t hurt, not like a headache, i was worried i brought the headaches back. It was like that all day till i went to bed. When I started to fall asleep, BAM, panic attacks like crazy, all night long no sleep. Hallucinations, visual color patterns and flashes, intense sudden tinnitus, tingling in hands feet, rapid heartbeat. The best way I could describe it is the sound and feeling of a lighter being lit in my head. It happened pretty much every time I was falling asleep. Happened about 10 times over the next month. I thought it was migraine auras haha. after 2 days of this went to the doc and she said it was anxiety and put me on meds without thinking twice, muscle relaxers and anti depressents,i have not taken them and wont. The main thing that happens is a sudden intense ringing in the ears and everything seems to go white and spotty, and adrenaline surges throughout my body, but goes away in like 10 seconds. Last time it happened i was fishing and laughing about a sex joke with my buddies?!?!

After about month now, the panic attacks are gone pretty much, but i wake up every morning with pressure in my temples and am foggy headed. It gets worse if i go back to sleep in the morning. If it eat sugar or lots of carbs, it educes a panic attack within a few hours. I have a very hard time concentrating on anything and am having memory loss. Every once in a while i wake up with my bed sheets totally soaked in sweat. My lips tingle sometimes when falling asleep, and when that happens i usually see some small light shows under my eyes. It’s just strange because I am happy, confident, and some days i have 0 symptoms, but them out of the blue they come back the next day. My eyes are very dry in the morning and every once in a while become very fatigued all the sudden. When i get a hot shower, it seems to bring the pressure in my temples back for awhile. Every once in awhile out of the blue i get sharp, explosive electric like pains that shoot through my head, but go away quickly.

If i get stressed, my temples feel like there is a worm crawling around in them, and they fill up with fluid. and my ears are very sensitive to loud noises. But sometimes its not even stress that causes it. It will happen out of the blue. (they never were)

I have been working out pretty hard the past 4 days, and eating very healthy and its alitle better, but everything is definatly still there. Im just started to get scared that this stuff isnt going away. I dont want to go the docters and have them just quickly jump on the fact that its only anxiety, anxiety just doesnt fit me.

thanks alot for your time.
Just to be more specific, i dont have actual headaches anymore, just that pressury feeling and sometimes a few quick shooting pains, I am pretty sure that it was a serious tension headache i had and not a migraine, but i could be wrong. One other thing i forgot to mention is sometimes out of the blue i will be these strange tingly feelings that wave over my scalp, almost making it feel like my hair is standing up, usually goes away in about 10-30 seconds.

A few days ago my left ear started ringing, and it feels all clogged up. It is the same feeling I get after going to a loud gig, but I haven’t been to one recently. I don’t suffer from tinnitus other than in those circumstances. I’m currently suffering from hayfever and often congested so I’m wondering if it has something to do with sinuses? I’m also finding it impossible to yawn for some strange reason, and this seems to be related.
Does anyone know what it could be, and how I could stop it, or should I just go to the doctors?

I’ve had tinnitus for about 2 months so far. I hope it will go away…until then, how can I go about masking it?

I can’t hear my tinnitus in the shower or when I run water in the sink. However, when I run a fan in my room, I can still hear it. Do actual white noise machines work better? What about tinnitus maskers from an audiologist – do they work?

I am currently trying to get an appointment with an ENT. Who knows, maybe it’ll go away. It started with a minor ear infection and a retracted eardrum. Ears are better now but the ringing remains ;_;.

when I was little, about 5, I was diagnosed with tinnitus and I still have it about 7 years later. I was wondering if there’s anything to get the noise in my ears to go away, preferably a home remedy. tinnitus has made it hard for me to sleep, and I can’t concentrate while taking tests , read, or study which has caused my grades to go down.

first i just want to say that i have had ear/sinus issues in the past, but it hasn’t been has bad (i have some hearing loss but it’s not too significant, although it seems to have gotten worse lately).

for the past couple of weeks or so, i have heard a pounding noise in my ear. i am assuming that i am hearing my heartbeat which i believe is indicative of tinnitus. it is a lot worse at night, and it has been keeping me up.

also, about a month ago i did have fluid in my right ear but the doctor didn’t really do anything about it. my right ear has been hurting (sometimes just dull pain but i also get sharp shooting pain) for a few months.

does this sound like tinnitus? or something else? what would be the treatment? is there something to help in the meantime?

*also i know, you won’t be able to give me complete specific answers, but i am just looking for some advice/help. i’m going to try and get an appointment with my doctor later when they open. tia!
