Four weeks ago, I accidentally slapped my ear mildly, which led to tinnitus. I visited two ENTs and a neurologist, and after tests, all doctors confirmed that there is no damage to my ear or auditory nerve, attributing the tinnitus to minor nerve irritation. They assured me it would resolve on its own over time. While my tinnitus has reduced in intensity and fluctuates occasionally, I'm still worried about whether it will fully go away. The doctors expect that with patience, it will gradually fade, likely within a few months, and improvements so far suggest this outcome. How much more time will it take, and is this definitely temporary?
