you can get pretty nice earplugs, molded to your own ears, with very specific characteristics eg cutting the volume by 50% but without distorting the EQ of what you're hearing... i imagine some people on this thread know a thing or two about those.

I just heard it pronounced "tín-nit-tus" recently when I'd been hearing tin-EYE-tis forever.

Those with ear discomfort, do you get accompanying jaw issues as well?

I only notice how bad my tinnitus ringing is when I'm in a completely silent room, it's quite horrifying to think this is actually going on all the time!

left ear 24/7, right ear is infrequent

I find myself turning towards people with my right ear to hear them more clearly, I'm clearly due for a tin ear trumpet

My sister-in-law has been struggling with it in both ears for several years, and is trying this treatment: https://www.lenire.com/what-is-lenire/

She's 4 weeks in and noticing improvement. Supposedly around 6 weeks is when most folks really notice a big difference.

^ same, left ear rings 24/7, maybe a little in the right one, hard to tell. Kind of amazing how quickly I got used to it at the onset. I can now go weeks without even thinking about it, even though I know it is there. And yes, my jaw pops when I chew, which I have been told can be related to the ringing but is not in itself problematic.
