Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of tinnitus while having sinus pressure and cold.The symptoms you mention in query can occur due to leftover upper respiratory tract infection which spreads to ear and leads to dysfunction of eustachian tube. Need not to worry. You should avoid touching or pricking it with any sharp object and maintain hygiene of ear canal. Put Otogesic ear drops. I would suggest you to consult ENT specialist once and get it examined. Doctor may order certain test like audiometry , CT scan ,MRI , low and high pitched ringing to rule out conditions like hearing loss , exposure to loud noises , earwax buildup , middle ear infection. Doctor may treat it according to the diagnosis , he/she may prescribe medicine like eprisone and antibiotics.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
