Hyperacusis – Causes
The most common cause of hyperacusis is overexposure to excessively high decibel (sound pressure) levels.
Some come down with hyperacusis suddenly as a result of taking ear sensitizing drugs, Lyme disease, Ménière's disease, head injury, or surgery. Others are born with sound sensitivity, develop superior canal dehiscence syndrome, have had a history of ear infections, or come from a family that has had hearing problems.
Some psychoactive drugs such as LSD, methaqualone, or phencyclidine ("angel-dust") can cause hyperacusis. An antibiotic, ciprofloxacin has also been seen to be a cause, known as "ciprofloxacin-related hyperacusis".
