Whenever i do laundry my hyperacusis flares up. i become extra sensitive to sounds.what can i do? any soap you recommend?

Loud noise: Is the cause the soap or is it the loud noise of the laundry machine that bothers you ear? It sounds like its probably the noise. A visit to an ENT doctor should answer the question. The typical treatments for hyperacusis, called retraining therapy, can be very helpful.
