Are you referring to me?

Many NFL players have talked openly about all their health issues after retirement, brain damage, cognitive damage etc etc In general terms, working kills people, but some jobs are harder than others. Just imagine if we could just work at what we like, and our health can take, irrespective of...

Interesting. My T started 6 weeks after the nerve injury in my head and about a week after I had several MRIs in a row. H started several months after my T as well.

Its a sign!!!!!! Lol jk but you never know... Well something switched it off atleast.. Which means it can be switched offff!!!! But yeah dont go bumpin your head now for fun hah

I fell and bruised my right jaw/head badly a few months ago. The jaw more so than the head where i was unable to eat much the next several days. I ended up with tinnitus in my right ear that is constant. Flexeril gave me some minor relief of late. I am not sure if a jaw injury could jumpstart...

With me, it’s mostly frustration, and a lot of that frustration comes from dealing with doctors who don’t seem to take it seriously and who tell you the same useless things you could find out on Google. They tell you to run a fan in your room, but my tinnitus is so loud that I would need a fan...

Always ever helpful @Greg Sacramento, I have reactive tinnitus and hyperacusis with my cervical issues. Hope you are having a better week. I just keep coming across your treasure troves of information around the forum. :)

Is your hearing loss connected to BVH? Perhaps if you tried to treat that it would help with tinnitus.

@Jiri My judgement with this subject is only in the area of sound-induced ear pain or discomfort (aural fullness) due to temporomandibular and cervical disorders. This includes head, neck or jaw injury. This is medical related and not just limited to the usual discussions of hyperacusis and...

Hi Mark- I never had T until my head injury. It came on 2 days after my concussion. It's been changing frequencies. At first it was really loud and fortunately of late it's been getting slightly better. I hope for it to completely fade however I don't know the best treatment if it is fluid...

Michael has included some of the common causes of tinnitus. Here is a longer list of causes which may include some of the causes mentioned above. These causes, single or combined, can trigger or aggravate tinnitus including by not limited to drug reaction or side-effects from ototoxic drugs...

Hi @Omid Rahmani! I am so sorry to hear of your suffering - I've learned like you that life is often not fair. If the tinnitus was caused by a head/neck injury, you might want to try an upper cervical chiropractor. They will take x-rays of your neck and see if the atlas vertebra has shifted...

@threefirefour So true. Forward head posture for somatic tinnitus is listed in many professional articles. A bend forward neck from improper posture lifting, bending, dental procedure, accident with head trauma, muscle spasms and being under stress are all reasons for getting somatic tinnitus...

It's been a long time since I looked at my chart. I recall 10 and 12k mHz being over 90% loss. Conversation levels something like 35-40% loss. 3k dollars for hearing aids I don't use much anymore. (Recruitment is making up for some missing F's and S's?) I have yet to learn about audiology. I've...

...does not happen immediately after a neck injury. Both neck and jaw trauma can happen at the same time when the head is jolted or from head injury. Muscles spasms of neck often have a place. Clenching can happen from stress and sometimes due to an added injury to neck or head. Severe bone...

I'm a modern dancer and have dealt with my own posture after a back injury. Great idea getting the posture work to make sure that the head is not out of alignment due to the shoulders being rounded. Glad to hear things are improving with the Botox. I also have Bruxism and have found that I...

I can report that my high pitched, most annoying tinnitus feels a bit lower in volume and more in the background of my consciousness than before since a couple of weeks. Less feeling of "laser in head" too. So not good, but better. I did go ahead and listen to David's Tinnitus Mix using the...

Extreme hyperacusis has forced me to wear muffs for months (day and night). It puts a lot of pressure on the neck and head which led to severe cramps & tension. My head has been locked into one position for a very long time. Apparently, it makes the neck susceptible to injury and even things...

@Greg Sacramento do you believe in these posture devices? https://www.amazon.com/Corrector-Clavicle-Adjustable-Straightener-Providing/dp/B07L41CV8B/ref=sr_1_6?crid=3ZXVQE2TF6K3&dchild=1&keywords=posture+brace+for+neck+and+shoulders&qid=1590279815&sprefix=posture+%2Caps%2C963&sr=8-6

...treatments. Is there a way to break that info down somehow so you could see, for example, most of the people who responded well to steroids got tinnitus from noise but not from some other cause. Or most people who didn't respond to Ginkgo, for example, got tinnitus as a result of a head injury.

...True. Dural arteriovenous fistula usually develops later in life - at 60 years of age, and one's eyes are usually red. Cause can be - head injury, heart, infection, vein or artery blockage and intracranial hypertension. Feeling the location of BRUT - blood flow can be difficult. Some get an...

...over 2.5 times, landed up side down, and then the woman's car landed on top of our car and then our roof caved in. Ouch! I had a TBI head injury, certainly neck stress/strain, but no specific neck injury. Lucky to be alive actually. About 37 years ago, when I was 16 growing up in the...

Wasnt Wasn't ATEOS's T noise induced,or was his onset random?I remember him talking about waking up with a fullness in his ears and then T and that's exactly how mine started only to be worsened by noise.

Yeah, I think people suspect noise when it is not the cause, because they hear a sound. Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) alone can cause tinnitus. Your auditory system includes nerves that extend into your brain. You may have suffered a concussion and not even know it. Tinnitus is just one symptom...

May I ask whether you had reactive tinnitus e.g. tinnitus which spikes easily from noise, and whether this reactivity e.g. the ease of spiking has faded in line with your hyperacusis?

But I didn't take any meds :( *sigh*

Funny that you say that because when I swallow I can feel that my ears are semi-filled. They were never like that before, it's like everything shifted in my head/face a few millimeters... I never hurt my ears though, but maybe something to do with the nerves??

...I've had tinnitus since I was a kid, but just over the past few years has it begun to really interfere with my life. I had a serious head injury in 8th grade, (roughly 5 years ago), which may be to blame. Immediately after the injury, I began having difficulties with my speech (stammering and...

...you may have. Any discomfort anyplace from shoulders up - eyes, jaw, nose, neck, muscles, face, mouth, ears. Have you ever had a neck or head injury. Do you have good posture. Do you clench your teeth. How is your dental. Are you young, middle age or older. For coping there's many here that...

The only thing I recall, is the two or three days were extremely stressful for me and my family. I'll not go into details, but needless to say, probably the most stress I've experienced in my life. Although the headaches began after the tinnitus. Really interesting stuff about the vagus nerve...

I had mentioned several times over the last year or so within ear protection threads that heavy noise blocking headphones are not advised for those with certain physical conditions. This would be for those with a problem within the neck, face or jaw. Included would be a straight neck - loss of...

Whether intentional or not, your post sounds like you are scolding @AliasM. I am not sure that is helpful.

...type problem (amplification due to loss in specific areas). Even with noise induced hyperacusis and not something like whiplash or a head injury, there could be other things driving it such as an overactive Tensor Tympani muscle. Treatment for cochlear/sound induced hyperacusis: 2030. The...

In the original message, the OP mentions a head wound and a concussion as the cause for his/her t. I quote: If the original wound is getting better maybe the tinnitus will too. I am obviously not 100% sure it's all going to be peachy soon but that's my reasoning. She doesn't mention any hair...

Welcome to the forum. As far as the reason for the T or its spike, there are many causes, single or combined, which can trigger or aggravate tinnitus including by not limited to drug reaction or side-effects from ototoxic drugs, ear wax build-up, inner ear infection, Eustachian tube infection...

I was stuck with a new bad employer and a stressful job for weeks before my head injury. Not sure if I have a physical cause or stress induced T. Though my GP told me that my concussion could have been a trigger for T after years of severe depression and anxiety. My guess would be that it's...

Yes i had t from a concussion. Delayed onset is very typical in those cases. Head traumas are very complex injuries. There is a lot going on when you hit your head. With mild head traumas (no visible brain injury) it goes away in most cases. But if not it is worth getting a full checkup...

...at night when i lay down to rest i hear fizzing/hissing with occasional squeals. Still amplifies with sound yet not as much. My Tinnitus started after a head injury. Normal hearing yet struggled through 4 difficult months. Wondering if any others have seen changes in there Tinnitus from onset?

Welcome to the forum Laurie. Tinnitus can be caused by many things. MS is not a common cause but it has been known on rare occasion to trigger tinnitus. Here is a link that talk about MS and tinnitus. https://www.verywell.com/hearing-problems-and-multiple-sclerosis-2440785 Since MS rarely...

Hi Emma, What do you think caused your tinnitus ? I am looking into upper cervical problems for mine ,although not sure because of noise exposure too.

Have you taken the COVID-19 vaccine?

...intrusive, but I am also a lot more anxious (perimenopause). This year has been stressful. Loss of my aunty, handling her affairs, a head injury, root canal, loss of my job due to mandates here, a septic knee bursa - required treatment with a dose of IV Cefazolin and a weeks worth of...

...of "head noise" in a silent setting. It may also be that you really do have tinnitus (since childhood) due to e.g. ear infections, head injury, or a childhood disease. But since then, you have become perfectly habituated (due to onset very early on). Either way, you should forget about what...

They haven't said otherwise. They did have an exclusion criteria in their trials that stated that you couldn't have somatic tinnitus from a head or neck injury. Somatic tinnitus wasn't per say an exclusion criteria. If I remember the numbers correct most people with tinnitus have somatic...

Welcome to the forum. Hearing loss and/or noise exposure is only one of many possible causes to trigger or aggravate existing tinnitus. This can include but not limited to drug reaction or side-effects from ototoxic drugs, ear wax build-up, ear or Eustachian tube infection or ETD, ear drum...

...i was unable to eat as my jaw was very swollen. Since then i have had unilateral tinnitus in my right ear. The doctors think its from a head injury (concussion)but i am beginning to think it has something to do with my right jaw slamming up with the mandible since this would explain 1 ear...

Lane, I really appreciate the time you took to craft a thorough response - clear that the support network is strong here. ENT put me on a corticosteroid and a non-fluoroquinolone antibiotic (Clarithromycin) so I think I'm ok there for now, but I appreciate the information and the watch-out for...

...maybe 3, 4 minutes where I didn't notice it, but then right back to it. My question is, is this most likely something permanent, or can a head injury caused tinnitus go away? I've spent hours looking on Google and have found absolutely zero reliable answers and the ER doc was unfortunately...

Welcome to the forum. It is sometimes not easy to pin down to one exact thing that triggers our tinnitus. There are many causes which can trigger or aggravate tinnitus including but not limited to drug reaction or side-effects from ototoxic drugs, ear wax build-up, ear-wax removal suction, ear...

I can relate to those with TMJ and clenching. My TMJ started with a neck injury from having mouth open for too long during dental surgery complicated by not having my neck relaxed onto a head rest. Added to that is cranial nerve and atlantoaxial involvement. One of my dentist who naturally...

Welcome to the forum. Yes, tinnitus can come on suddenly like mine just woke me up one night with its ultra high pitch scream and stayed 7/24 scaring me to no ends. There are many causes which can trigger or aggravate tinnitus including but not limited to drug reaction or side-effects from...

Great- had an injury at the gym, knew it was bad felt as if my knock couldn't even support my head and went to physiology for a while. My neck still hurts when I walk for a long time...and sometimes for no reason. Plus can't look up, list that range of movement however have also had TNT and...
