an ear condition,in which one has a collapsed tolerance to normal environmental sounds,which normally would not bother a person with normal hearing'
s ears.certain sounds will cause your ear drums to cringe,and have a spasm which is described as "fluttering" in the ear
drum.it can be more severe in some cases than others from what i understand.it is caused by a number of things,such as prolonged exposure to loud
noise,prolonged use of certain
drugs,such as aspirin,head trauma,and many others.all though there isn't exactly a total cure for it,the ear's tolerance level can be brought up greatly by using pink
noise cd's.by doing so it can get alot stronger,and it will be able to tolerate more
noise,but it will not make the ear 100% better.
i am 18 years old and already have hyperacusis,mainly cause i did the stupid thing by listening to
music on headphones daily,for 8 years,played in a band that practiced significantly loud,and used aspirin for a
long period of
time,due to the fact that i thought i had a non-existant heart problem.DON'T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKES AS ME.
