Post surgery advice
Hi doctor
I had my ear ringing continuously in right ear after a cold since March 2023 -after ct scan and audiometry both ears had moderate hearing snhl
Also grade 3 adenoids blocking ears and septum deviation leading to breathing issues through nose with persistent cough cold and green phlegm with foul smell behind the nose including rhinosinusitis and rhinorrhea
My surgery was done for septum deviation and adenoidectomy on November 3rd
The nose breathing issues have stopped now
But my tinnitus is slightly reduced but not gone away yet..as it's irritating me still ..doc advised that to ignore and it will go away
I want to know when I can expect relief from this 😔?

Your tinnitus is the result of SNHL. You will have to ignore the sound and focus on the sounds of surroundings.
For bedtime, you can use white noise for distraction. It will go in some time.
Next Steps
avoid noise exposure. avoid taking ototoxic drugs.
use headphones for not more than 30 mins at a time and keep the volume low .
over the head headphones are better.
