Ringing in ear

[harryhood]

I have had ringing in my right ear for about 3 months. I have no idea why. There is a little pain if I move my ear around (the left ear there is none and no ringing)

It seems to be worse after eating certain things. Can food make my ears ring louder?

Hi I also suddenly began having ringing in my left ear and has gotten louder now than before. Suddenly I can hear more ringing in my right then left and I am trying very hard to keep my cool because it is really annoying. I am afraid of getting so desperate that my anxiety level starts to blow out of proportion!!!!
I too have Hashimoto’s, terrible seasonal allergies, Rhinitis, Arnold Chiari, and asthma… my doctor told me it was a condition I had to live with with (TINNITUS) but I refuse to live like this… I will not stop until at least the ringing get a little bit softer… my general doctor told me he would try with a medication that helps with the blood circulation to the head …. I am taking so many meds now, wow I can not imagine one more!….

Hi, consulting a ENT specialist would be more appropriate. Take care and regards.

Hi, Tinnitus is a perception of sound in proximity to the head. The possibilities for tinnitus are Vascular disorders including Arterial bruits, Arteriovenous shunts, Paraganglioma, Neurologic disorders Eustachian tube dysfunction, Otosclerosis and Vestibular schwannoma.

There is no relation between the food and ringing sound, may be related to jaw movements. You need to undergo complete ear examination supported by brain CT if needed. I suggest you to consult a Physician and get a detailed evaluation. Take care and regards.

Autoimmune conditions such as Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, Celiac Disease and many others can cause tinnitus.
