Can olive oil cause Tinnitus
No.
All the audiology community and the BTA themselves advise olive oil is a perfectly safe substance to keep your ear lubricated, so I wouldn't worry about that being the cause. How have you been administering it? If you're sticking the dropper right inside your ear, that's more likely to cause problems than the oil itself. What's more likely I would suggest, if you're using Earol and olive oil, is that the wax you're trying to encourage to leave your ear has formed a plug that's occluding your eardrum slightly - might be that that's affecting your hearing ever so slightly and your brain is turning up the volume to try and compensate.
Of course not - you've probably bunged your ear canal up so internal noises are louder. Are you having any wax removed - preferably by suctioning rather than syringing?
Definitely - be patient and get the wax removed eventually..
I'll try it and see if it works
