bumping into things
 

I am 3.5 months into the recovery with PCS. I accidently bumped into the wardrobe yesterday and my left shoulder hit it. Although I didnt hit my head, I felt the impact travelling to my head. I seemed ok though. The next morning I feel maybe my tinnitus is a bit louder. I am worrying I have a setback and my recovery is prolonged :(

Even the slight shaking of my head makes me feel dizzy for hours!

Anxiety is a serious impediment to recovery. Your focus on "The next morning I feel maybe my tinnitus is a bit louder." is an anxiety reaction and not likely based on reality. As anxiety increases, our senses magnify anything we pay attention to.

It is common for tinnitus to sound louder just because of paying attention to it. The best way to deal with tinnitus is to learn to ignore it as much as possible.
