A member asked:

Scheduled for a tympanogram & audio next week due to my ears popping & clogged from current cold. normal audio a 3 years ago with my tinnitus. never had a tympanogram since my tinnitus started. will this make my t worse or ears hurt/pop more. risks?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No. Tympanography is just a system of mild pressure pushed into the ear drum to see how flexible it is. It is no more intense than mildly cupping your ears & the duration is brief (seconds).The audio just studies response to different frequencies of sound, much like you hear every day of your life. It will have no effect on your baseline ear issues. I find it has no risk.
