Middle ear pain with Tinnitus
From last 2 years my mom experience pain in middle ear, with eye pain and headache along with tinnitus. Consulted General physician who diagnosed tinnitus and prescribed medicine to manage tinnitus and some blood tests that all came normal. Treatment with his medicine helped managed symptoms but not cured. Consulted ENT who also treating tinnitus with medicine and that too not working. Consulted Neurologist,  who prescribed pregbaline for long durations and cannot even said that how long will take to cure. Approximately 5 months taken pregabalin that shows significant adverse effects like weight gain and shortness of breath. Recently Consulted ENT sergion for surgical procedure if any to cure this. He diagnosed TMJ disorder and said to consult with orthodontist. He also give test like Xray OPG. Reaching out to get some other opinion.
