Finding this site and fellow sufferers has been extremely helpful. I also have suffered from static/crackling when certain frequencies hit my left ear .
I went to the ENT specialist and like many of you, received a very positive hearing test. His explanation was that the ear muscles that hold the tiny bones were going into spasm at certain frequencies. He didn't offer any help other than to protect my ears.
Have any of you experimented with muscle relaxers (valium or flexoril) and determined if they help this condition? It would be good to prove/dis-prove my ENT's spasm theory.
I use to have this problem until recently, it is caused by ACID REFLEX. Acid reflex isn't the initial cause, but it effects or triggers it. If you have chronic acid reflex than you will get this every time you play loud music.
The cure for me was fresh ginger root (1/2 tsp.) and lemon tea once a day. I also take a teaspoon of baking soda with water ever once in a while.
If it works for you, you should notice a difference in 48hrs.
hey man ! I've been experiencing the exact same problems and I'm also a pianist and signer.. I was wondering how you were feeling today, almost a year after you've shared your story. ?

@DumboDoctor --- Find a good neuro-otologist. Most ENT docs won't know about the problem as it's still relatively still unknown. Look up to see my posts, I've posted a few theories,
