You are dwscribing tinnitus. Etiology maybe viral.
I had this a couple of years ago,
Checked the " approved" guidelines on Google which recommended observation for several weeks and if no improvement see an ENT . Went to the ENT who felt these were bad guidelines and that I should have seen him ASAP. to prevent it frpm becoming permanent.
Precribed short course of prednisone resulting in rapid complete resolution with no recurrence
"Precribed short course of prednisone resulting in rapid complete resolution with no recurrence."
Prednisone has not affected my tinnitus. I first noticed tinnitus in 1987 after 20 years of motorcycling without earplugs. I began protecting my hearing, and the tinnitus has stayed faint and ignorable unless I think about it. I began taking 10 mg Prednisone 4 months ago (required with Abiraterone), and still have the tinnitus.
I've been living with it (both ears) for 30 years and learned mentally how out to tune it out.
In fact when it's mentioned here or anywhere else.... it sort of sets it off...... but just live and ignore it....(put it in the back burner mentally)...
