When I was a young boy

I do have tinnitus.  Didn’t realize it until all this happened.  Just thought I always had “super” hearing.  No tests I ever took in my life showed any issues. 

I got an earache one day coming home from school during the winter.  I was in either kindergarten or 1st grade.  We lived at the end of row houses and my school was at the other.  I don’t remember leaving in pain, but by the time I got home, I was doubled over.  My left ear ached with more pain than I ever experienced before.  My mother heated up some mineral oil? and the relief was so immediate and comforting, I was asleep in a jiff.  So I wonder, could it be   http://www.comcast.net/slideshow/news-weirdsymptomsexplained/9/?   In the meantime, I hear wooshing or high-pitched noises out of my left ear.  I wish I still thought I had superior hearing.
