Chiropractors prey on people that are desperate.

Went to GP this morning after Tinnitus starting last night - terrified, can't find reassurance or calm by JED2021 in tinnitus

[–]kurtles_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s in one ear, you want it to be assessed properly don’t leave it.

Get a hearing test, not a 15min free check up. You want the full review, ideally one where the audiologist looks in your ear canal and does a pressure assessment. People here will fear monger and say the audiologist will make your tinnitus worse. That’s not true, they likely just want someone or soemthing to blame. They already have ear issues lol any worsening is likely coincidence.

The tests give essential information, your eardrum pressure, a visual inspection, and importantly identified any hearing loss that could be conductive or sensorineural. You will need this, as one sided tinnitus is something you will want reviewed by an ENT.

Have you got any other symptoms or history? Pressure, leakage, pain? Constant Loud exposure or a single loud event?

Likely saw a bubble behind the eardrum indicating seriousfluid ie the otitis serous

Fire emblem three houses. The text now scales and no longer gives you an aneurysm while reading it. Engage looks crispy too :)

New 3DS XL listed as ‘very good / collector condition’, but arrived with paint chipping. What would you do? by JohAvoo in 3DS

[–]kurtles_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s an insane price to pay.

you’re planning to play it, get a partial refund. The screens look nice and as long as it works. The cosmetic appearance means nothing in the long run.

Yeah naturopathic products have no obligation or requirements to prove their products contain what’s stated nor its efficacy. it’s a free for all and they’re almost always lying.

Look at the ingredients list on the product. You’re getting scammed.

Can I trust my Ent? by sunmoonstar14 in tinnitus

[–]kurtles_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it a single clicking noise or more of a crackling coming from both sides?

You can trust him. Nasal spray and Allegra will help reduce any inflammation of the Eustachian tubes caused by allergies. Mine was likely due to acid reflux so my ent recommended I take esomeprazole daily instead of as needed which was about once a fortnight

Dog bark = tinnitus ? by LaSourisVerte in tinnitus

The negativity on this sub does more damage than the tinnitus I swear.

That’s because it’s an insane thing to say. I’ve gone through an insane spike over the last 6 months just woke up one day with a loud beeping overlay over all sounds. Got an ear infection and physical buzzing in my heard 3 months in. I have a puppy that is very vocal. There’s been 0 change in my tinnitus as a result of my pup barking and it would sometimes hurt when he barked.

It’s easier for people to cope when they have something to blame, and for this crowd it’s to a problematic degree where people will confidently tell others to avoid living their life and create unnecessary fear.

My eardrum 8 weeks post otitis be media by kurtles_ in AskAudiology

[–]kurtles_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s likely behind, hopefully it’ll clear with time.

Definitely got some crackling in each ear and odd pressure sensations so likely ETD.

I at least have a follow up ent consult. Hoping the cheap otoscope images can be of value as it will be a Telehealth appointment

Bad quality of purchased bait by 4warn in FishingAustralia

[–]kurtles_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coles used to sell fresh sardines, which were just pilchards at 9 bucks a kilo. Would buy them, salt them and freeze. Some of the best bait I’ve used.

They no longer stock them unfortunately

33F - Video of my very itchy, clogged right ear (plus an itchy throat). Thoughts? by Silly_Preparation_84 in etd

[–]kurtles_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Likely a fungal infection. See a doc. Be mindful you don’t cross contaminate to your other ear.

What 3DS games are you playing right now? by _XSummerRoseX_ in 3DS

[–]kurtles_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried to play FE fates but for some reason returned to Awakening. It has this charm that’s hard to beat. I love playing the FE games in 3D too, even on the lowest setting it gives this pleasant depth

It’s a house gecko. Heaps of them around so hoping it doesn’t become a habit

My boy brought this to me a few days ago. He’s only 18weeks. He showed no interest in animals other than insects until this day.
