I have rhinitis and I am convinced it’s linked to my clogg block ears mostly left and the ring noise
The clogg block and ring buzz 🐝 is noticeable as. I wake and and the heavy block fuzz ring hiss noise there all day unless I rest my head
Not sure what can be done to elevate the sensation but I do hope there is some sort of way out
When it first occurred 12 weeks ago it was presumed from a swim but as time has went on I have came to the conclusion it’s linked to my rhinitis which is mostly down my left side broke nose which does not help
Does anyone else think link between rhinitis and the clogged ears damp wet heavy feel
Any thoughts of this appreciated
O and any questions I should ask ENT
Regards
Andrew

Hello Andrew, very good luck with ent today, I had to wait so long for my appointment I ended up paying a private specialist. I was very disappointed as I expected ent to do so much more for me and apart from scans there was very little in the bedside manner. However, what you must do before you go is write “ everything” down on paper clearly what you want to ask them and number each point. We all are experiencing our tinnitus in very different ways and so many different sounds and fullness and pressure I find to be the worse. You will be ok I’m sure , as you say you’ve waited so long hopefully you will get a. Dry nice ent team and they will do lots of tests. Make sure you ask for these tests, don’t just get brushed off with them saying “ oh it’s only tinnitus” make sure you ask everything that’s worrying you. Good luck from me, Penny
Thanks for reply . Question. I thought Tinnitus was only associated with noise sensations in many forms I did know you can get the wet heavy clogg feeling I thought that was separate issue !
Well it might be separate! As Penny has said, Andrew, prepare your questions in advance by writing them down and tick them off when they have been dealt with. You may be allowed to take someone with you. If you are allowed to do so it might help if you’re a bit deaf from the symptoms- because everyone wears a mask and it’s sometimes hard to understand Best of luck
Hi no I am fine with hearing even on clogged side it’s the uncomfortable and not able to relax side if things Also my rhinitis plays up as soon as I get ready in the morning that brings on the buzz 🐝
Thanks Andrew. It sounds as if ENT were very thorough. Good news that there are no visible problems in the ear canals. How did you wait for the referral?
Good luck! I also have rhinitis- a side affect from medication, I didn’t make a connection so I’d be interested to hear what they say about that. I was referred for a MR angiogram which shows up blood vessels in brain so you could ask about that. I think that was because mine is pulsatile though
