Hi. I have ringing sound in my left ear from the past one month. Also the night that my tinnitus started the left side of my nose was also blocked. I took steam for a couple of days. Then I visited an ent and was told I have tinnitus. I was also told to do a pta test and impedance test. The impedance test results showed no problems, but in pta test it was discovered that I have high frequency hearing loss in my left ear. I have never been exposed to such loud music and I use ear phones and head phones also like a normal 30 year old. I have been prescribed defcort and nootropil 800. It has almost been 25 days since I have taken these medicines and I have had very little improvement. The ringing sound is bearable when I sit in my room alone with no sound. But it irritates me when am exposed to a slightly higher pitched noise like horns or people shouting. Please suggest what should I do next as I am worried.

You have high frequency hearing loss as per the audiometry report but you did not mention the type of hearing loss, like conductive or sensory-neural, it will be better if you attach the pta report, your doctor has given good drugs, get the hba1c and fasting blood sugar done. As per history the tinnitus increases with the exposure of loud sound, it could be recruitment also which happens when there is some problem with the cochlea. Detailed investigation is necessary.

1. Do saline gargles daily.
2. Whenever possible do steam inhalation also.
4. Drink Hot Liquids --Hot liquids relieve nasal congestion, prevent dehydration, and soothe the uncomfortably inflamed membranes that line your nose and throat. 5. Sleep With an Extra Pillow Under Your Head-- Elevating your head will help relieve congested nasal passages. If the angle is too awkward, try placing the pillows between the mattress and the box springs to create a more gradual slope.

I am bishnu from odisha & this is regarding my mother age 57 yrs. Since last 7 months she is having problems like hand pain, foot pain, knee pain upper back pain. And all these r sensational pain like pain in nerves. Unable to hold a glass tightly & d time she leave d glass, d nerves pain. Even after 15 to 30 minutes of continuous sitting/sleeping it's very difficult to stand & hands and foot also pain severely. After doctors consultation (immunology & rheumatology), she is taking medicines since last 6 months. After lockdown we tried to contact same doctor through phone call, but couldn't. But d nurse/assistant advise to continue d medicines. And last 4 months she is taking d same medicines continuously. In between, around 15 to 20 days she couldn't take medicines becoz of unavailability. And the symptoms got worsen. Medicines details - defza 6 tab, transgaba nt 400 tab, etova 400 tab, pantodac 40 tab, hcqs 300 tab, nanofast gel, telmikind 40 tab. So my question is whether it is safe to continue d medicines? Bcoz all medicines r having some side effects. And she can't even stop taking them bcoz it worsen the symptoms. As hospital (sum hospital, bhuvaneshwar) is far away from our village, it is not possible to visit during this period. Please help with your valuable advice. Thank u, bishnu.

Hello Mr. lybrate-user, probably your mother was diagnosed having rheumatoid arthritis which needs prolonged treatment. But continuing the aforementioned medicines (especially etodolac, deflazacort and pregabalin) without monitoring is not at all suggested.
Better you consult nearest available pain and rheumatology specialist. Or you can consult me online.
Take care.
