Having Tinnitus In Ears, Pains When Hearing Loud Sound Or Yawn. Fullness In Ear? Eustachian Tube Problem?
Hi,
for a while now I have been having tinnitus in both ears and pain and fluttering in my right ear when I hear loud sounds or yawn. I also have a sensation of fullness in my right ear, and noise sensitivity. I think some of my symptoms may be related to tmj due to neck and jaw pain, but Im worried about a possibility of Eustachian tube problem and also noise induced hearing loss from using my ipod. is there anything that I can do to pinpoint my problems and also get treatment?

Welcome to HCM.
Get examined by ENT specialist to confirm the diagnosis.
Otherwise tinnitus usually occurs due to continuous exposure to loud noise,dry wax inside,recurrent infection and even also one of the symptoms of hypertension.
One of the cause in your case is most likely due to continuous hearing of music on ipod. Avoid ipod till get complete cure,avoid exposure to loud noise.
Use ear plug during loud noisy exposure.
Start treatment for any local condition under guidance of your ent doctor.
