Intense Tinnitus after a cold

I had a cold a bit over a week ago. Minor headache, stuffy nose, sore throat, etc. I fully recovered three to four days ago and, since then, my right ear won't stop buzzing. I struggle with work, hobbies and sleep. I need help immediately, but appointments can take up to a month. I don't know what to do.

There may still be residual fluid behind the drum on that right side. If you feel that its severely bothersome, go to an urgent care for now. In the meantime call and schedule with an ENT so youre on their schedule in the next few weeks.
