[Scott330ci]

Its very annoying. Like really fking annoying.

Muted hearing, I have no cold like symptoms, 23 years old. Reasonable health.

Try popping you ears, the tubes may be blocked. (hold nose, close mouth and blow)

Less of the puns

No pain - how can I fix it?

Ok - ear with ringing pops - the other won't

Any idea's - Taken two paracetemol and some ibrobrufen, nothing.

Now taking pints of beer.

The former won't do anything, the latter may make it worse. Google tinnitus and you'll see the causes.

Look at Meniers disease while your there, my Dad had this, fixed with an operation inserting rubber grommets.

He had ringing/whistling and dizzy spells from it.

Is he completely fixed? I know someone who has tinnitus, possibly Menier's, and the consultants say it is permanent.

or it could just be a simple ear infection (not that that should be left untreated).

No he is not fixed, he still gets dizzy spells but not to the point were he falls over.

No ringing though, and he is on medication for the rest of his years, its a trial med for Meniers that is more commonly used in the treatment of sexually transmitted diseases, which he finds amusing at 72YO.

Hm, so no ringing? That sounds ('scuse the pun) great because the guy I know doesn't normally get dizzy spells unless it's really bad but always has the noise in his ears.

Spider.

I kid you not.

The noise is the spider slowly eating away at the little hairs in your ear drum, as each one 'dies' it lets out a specific frequency (the 'tone' it was designed to pickup). Make the most of it, because as each one dies it's the last time you'll ever hear that particular frequency again.

I'd suggest catching a fly and superglueing it to a length of cotton thread, pass the fly into the ear canal and 'tempt' the spider out.

Bit like fishing, I guess.

Or, it'll just be an ear infection. Hope you're feeling better soon.
