Tinnitus in both ears

2021-08-07 19:35:31
Tinnitus first started 13 years ago after a perforated eardrum and discharge in left ear, ringing started after discharge stopped(after medication) and it was in both the ears and was mild I could only hear it with both my ears closed, never had trouble with it. Last year I had perforated eardrum and discharge in my right ear and tinnitus spiked up after the discharge stopped(after medication), again the tinnitus is in both the ears despite the infection was only in my right ear and  sound is very high, disturbing and giving me anxiety sometimes, having trouble sleeping. I went to 3 different ENT doctors but couldn't diagnose the problem, they all said my eardrum was good . I was prescribed a lot of medicines but the problem is still there, the sound hasn't reduced a bit. My ears feel like they are blocked or full in the inside and when I close my nose and blow air to ears it clears a bit and closes back but ringing increases. I have esinophilia and cold all the year. please help

You need to do a pure tone audiometry and tympanometry. History suggestive of eustachian tube dysfunction also. Consult an ENT please
