Can temporary tinnitus last weeks?
I took Levaquin for 10 days. Come to find out it's an ototoxic drug considered moderately so, with < 1 % getting tinnitus from it . I'm not sure if that's the problem or not. My right ear has a low, but noticable high pitched ringing that pulses like a kaddydid bug. It's been with me at least a week now, since I started to notice it. There are days where it does seem a bit better, today not being one of those. My question is can this be a temporary tinnitus, even though I've only had it for a couple weeks or so? If the drug has caused it, when it's out of my system will my hearing return to normal? I've been off the Levaquin for 3 weeks now. I'm 30 years old.Also, for a couple of weeks I think my allergies have been acting up. We have record levels of ragweed in my area right now. I don't usually have allergies, nor do I get the runny nose, but my head has felt pressurized for a while, and my hearing has been muffled like you get when you have sinus pressure. The thing is, today I feel a lot better, but the tinnitus is having a worse day.
