Low dose Xanax (alparazolam) and meditation helped me through a flare up of tinnitus. I’m not sure to what extent amplified sound and amplified pain are similar though. I found that I could eventually calm down and ignore the tinnitus sound, but I’m not sure I’ve ever felt that way about pain. Maybe something to think about.

But, this is how tinnitus is handled. You have to relax and not be hypersensitive to it, because there is a feedback loop, and you don’t want to contribute to it.

Best wishes. Pain is a difficult thing to have to deal with.
