Not tinitus per se, but I’ll write my experience here because it helped a friend who ran in the same thing, and it might be more common than people think. I took a plane while sick, sinus were kinda jammed, ended up hurting like hell when the plane started landing. Next thing I know, I had a new condition: my hear would sometimes start a beat which I believed to be my heartbeat. It was extremely loud and would drive me insane. It would start at random times and stop at random times. It made me feel helpless and desperate a number of times. One day I decided: fuck it. Just accept it. Just embrace it. And from that point on it bothered me much much less. Fast forward a year and a half I think, and I realized that I hadn’t heard that drumming for a while. I guess time cured it. I also realized that my ears can easily get jammed so I ask for an ear cleaning from times to times (kaiser give it to you if you ask that during checkup). Once in Thailand I woke up with swimmer ear, and freaked the fuck out because I had a flight a few hours in the future. I resolved to not get on that plane if I couldn’t resolve the issue, so I ran to the nearest island clinic and got my ears unstuck. Everything was fine after! Never fly if your sinuses or ears are jammed!
