Buzzing in ears

Posted by Eileen @stomprud, Aug 3, 2016

I have a constant buzzing in my ears. Some say it is from anti-inflammatory medications, however I do not find that to be always true for me. Anyone else have this issue?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Ear, Nose & Throat (ENT) Support Group.

i have what I call. A roar. I have 50% hearing loss and waited to late to now have damage and Tinnitus. I find the hearing aids do silence the tinnitus 99%. The problem Is I still have to have the noise of a fan at bedtime. And I have to have at least one hearing aid in to hear the fan.

Hi @stomprud, welcome to Connect! Are you able to tell me a little bit more about what you're experiencing? Have there been any other symptoms along with the buzzing? Have you checked the side-effect lists for the specific medications you're on to see if ear buzzing is on there?

My medication does not tell me that it would cause buzzing in my ear.

Both years are buzzing all the time and it’s very noticeable.

I go to an ENT every 90 days for some kind of a deep ear cleaning, That helps. $30 go-pay.

I have had tinnitus (ringing in the ears) since I was 17 (56 now). But I just started a round of Toradol (anti-inflammatory) to help out with costochondritis and I've noticed it has caused a dramatic increase in the volume of the buzzing in my ears. Fortunately Toradol is a short-term med and I'm hoping things will calm back down once I'm off it. But it might not - and that is okay too. I know my brain will "tune it out" eventually.
