Hi, my name is Serge. I wrote a couple of weeks ago, if I remember correctly. Well, I've been dealing with hyperacusis for the past month due to a strange event. When trying to sleep, I feel tension in the muscles around my neck, possibly caused by tension from a wisdom tooth that was causing a bad bite. That issue has mostly been resolved; I still have some tension, but I still have the wound, and it's taking time to heal. I can't give a definitive answer until it’s almost fully healed, maybe in about a month.

Anyway, the thing is that my hyperacusis has improved a lot. Before, I would hear almost everything distorted and with pain. For example, rain would cause me terrible pain, as if it were a bombardment of sound, but that doesn’t happen anymore. However, I still experience it with several sounds, like the dryer, cars, the wind (depending on the sound), and certain sounds on the internet. Although I don’t know the exact frequency yet, I’ve listened to pink noise and eventually hear it, which makes me wonder if there’s still room for improvement or if I’ll keep hearing things distorted. As for the pain, there is none, just discomfort at certain volumes with those distortions.

Another thing is that, since the tension incident I had, I’ve been left with two ringing sounds in each ear. I hear them in silence, and they get worse when my ears are blocked. My ears get blocked a lot because I have a cold. Anyway, that’s it. The two ringing sounds are new, and they've been changing in intensity as I’ve been improving. I’m not sure if it's reactive tinnitus, although I don't think so. In theory, reactive tinnitus increases and stays for hours, but in my case, they decrease when the distorted sound fades, and I only hear them when sleeping. Well, that’s it. Finally, best regards!
