...know for certain. Tinnitus is such a garbage thing, I believe it can be caused by almost anything. Low or high minerals in the body. Poor diet. Stress. Head injury. Noise trauma. Chemical exposure, mold exposure. Colds. Sinus infections. Spinal/skull/jaw misalignments. TMD. It’s really fucked up.

Hi Shane! sorry to hear about your skull fracture. any other post head injury symptoms? did your T come on immediately after the incident? T with head injuries is difficult to call. And it's too hard to predict until the 1 maybe 2 year mark. I would recommend lots of omega 3 fish oil for a...

My theory is that when there is anything going on in the head or neck area such as injury, recovery from some types of surgery and inflammation close to the auditory nerves from the ears to the brain we hear a form of T. Imo ot explains different T sounds and spikes. Its our bodies own built in...

Thanks for the explanation. My whiplash was fairly mild and mostly resulted in physical trouble. Researched the things you mentioned and they don't seem to apply to me. Doesn't mean I'm not still careful with noise, same as I always have been.

Fuck Prednisone. I took it for 14 days following a work injury I had in my left ear. I’ve since been 3 weeks off the Prednisone and I’m experiencing the worst (possibly permanent) spike there is. I’m not sure how long the effects of taking steroids last in the body but my right ear has gotten...

@Mathew Gould - Your inflammation without fracture, but with a tower of pica is probably from: Former neck injury At some point after injury - days, months or years, hyperextension with rotation movement to the altanto axial joint, altanto occipital joint and foramen magnum probably happened...

@Forever_free Yes. Tinnitus can be caused by neck injury which often leads to the jaw or they both happen at the same time, although there are times when TMJ can cause a sore neck. TTTS - Tonic Tensor Tympani Syndrome or hearing functions can be the result of temporomandibular joint (TMJ)...

An impairment or injury to the spinal accessory nerve can cause weakness or paralysis to the SCM. This can cause atrophy (shrinking) in the affected sternocleidomastoid and may cause difficulty in turning the head and bending the neck. Treatment for this involves strengthening exercises for the...

I truly hope you are right and it will resolve

...so I'm hoping it will help the tinnitus & hyperacusis. Nothing to report yet as I literally just had it done. He is also doing them intratympanically and said he helped someone recently with hyperacusis to a good degree who got it from a head injury. *Exosomes are different than stem cells.

I know, lucky you. I’m seeing a Clinical Hypnotherapist, she has T herself from a head injury. I play her CD each night at bedtime. I’m lucky to have 3 little grandsons hence the Nanny Chocolate logo. The hypnosis is beneficial definitely. Night Dave x @Jazzer

Yeah true. It's just weird because I worked out for literally four years and my tinnitus never changed. It started getting worse when I started lifting over 450 pounds. I hope I didn't damage anything.

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 or Eustachian tube infection or ETD, ear drum injury, fluid build-up feeling pressured, TMJ, TTTS, high blood pressure or blood...

@KWC TMJ disorders typically start with some type of trauma, such as head and neck whiplash, overstretching of the lower jaw, or trauma around the lower jaw or chin. The resulting injury to the ligaments within the TMJ results in slippage of the disk. Any of this can cause somatic tinnitus...

...but this didn't have any change to T so he has tapered off again. Coming off Sertraline is the only thing that has happened to him to cause this T (He has 2 other long standing T noises that he has controlled from a head injury). He is desperate to reverse the T and damage Sertraline has done.

I am ok. T is back to low today (until my soccer game tonight LOL) Thanks

You might have high intracranial pressure since your story is similar to mine. My T started 50 days after head injury. I too had vision spots due to high intracranial pressure. I got a brain and ear mri and then had to get a Lumbar Puncture. Did you get mri done? Demand an mri from...

Well did you have some type of head injury or ear infection or exposed to loud sound since your last mri? Mri won't hurt, but not sure if it's necessary if you just got one a year ago and you didn't bang your head on a wall or something. Also did you get an inner ear mri last year? Or brain...

https://trainingandrehabilitation.com/association-tinnitus-neck-tmj/ Notice the natural moving of cochlea in the two pictures ( a short ways down in article) when people are bending over or exercising. This is part of the theory why some develop somatic physical tinnitus after muscle spasms or...

...tinnitus easier. Then hypertension can cause pulsatile tinnitus as in ways mentioned in first paragraph. Another way - whiplash or a head injury causing tinnitus as well as vein and artery problems of neck causing pulsatile tinnitus. Whiplash or a head injury can also cause problems within...

In as much as two-thirds of cases of people suffering a head injury, there will be discrete, unilaterial, and asymmetrical dips of about 15-20 db on the audiogram at unusual places such as 1 kHz or 1,5 kHz. This can - and will - often be missed by ENTs because they tend to look for: 1) General...

Suggests a cascading process doesn't it.

Are you asking me? I'm young and my DAVF occurred after a mild head injury. Eye redness almost never happens unless the fistula occurs behind the eye, which is not a common location. Most commonly it's behind the ear, which is why pulsatile tinnitus is a classic symptom. "Bruit" is the proper...

Very very likely its due to your neck.I have read that the upper neck soft tissue injury(C1,C2) js the main culprit in most cases for numerous concussion and whiplash symptoms. Unfortunately our neuros chalk it off as PCS and the neck injury is never ever addressed or given a thought in most...

...louder unmaskable one. Got it in my left but it doesnt bother me at all. On the right It's like an electric tone hiss thing, feels like its coming from my head. Not sure if its from my head injury back in Jan. or something else but I have no hearing loss. Thank you for responding to my...

I agree with others. You are a T veteran of sort. The positivity is that you are an example of T being livable if irritable at times. Head injury is a known cause for T. But we don't know enough about it as not all people with head injury develop T. Since you have had T for so long, you may want...

@Omid Rahmani, Do you have any hearing loss? It sounds to me your auditory signals are misfiring and head injury adding to it causing your tinnitus. Sometimes tinnitus can settle down over time and medication can help some people. Cinnarizine 15mg can help reduce tinnitus for people with...

That’s not good, is there any free doctor surgery's by you? A head injury can be serious (or knock some sense into you haha) also the lump on your hip may just be the bruise and swelling from the impact. Man I thought I was accident prone, you have me beaten there Shera haha keep and eye on it...

Thats the big question, does it work for noise induced T? It worked for T caused by head injury. NIT looks to be the hardest to fix....you need carefully look into this before you make the call!

Welcome to the forum. There are many causes which can trigger or aggravate tinnitus including by not limited to: Drug reaction or side-effects from ototoxic drugs, ear or Eustachian tube infection, ear drum injury, fluid build-up feeling pressured, TMJ, TTTS, high blood pressure or blood...

As far as the reason for the T increase, it can be many things. There are many causes which can trigger or aggravate tinnitus including by not limited to: Drug reaction or side-effects from ototoxic drugs, ear or Eustachian tube infection, ear drum injury, fluid build-up feeling pressured, TMJ...

...why there’s such a big to-do about head injuries in sports. That said, I am unaware of any data suggesting that tinnitus after a second head injury has any worse prognosis than after the first. So I suspect that in time things will settle back down for you. All the best with it. Stephen M...

My tinnitus is from head/neck/jaw. Probably started with the neck... I can modulate my tinnitus only a little and only sometimes via my neck... I'm waiting on the Dr. Susan Shore device.

Tinnitus can be caused my neck injury also, the head balances on the c-1 (atlas) in your neck, if your c-1 and head get out of balance it can cause Tinnitus, not sure but maybe the hit you got put your neck/head out of balance, but I am not sure, maybe its worth looking into check these links...

All the doctors I spoke with say Ciprodex is safe so I'm not sure how I got T. Maybe due to head injury. I've had T for 3 months now. It is 70% better and calmer than the first month. I hope this stupid T goes away in a few months or so. I only hear it when sleeping and when I have head...

Dont forget, many deaf or bad hearing people dont have tinnitus. In my opinion, most tinnitus suferers has noise, head injury or ototoxic drugs induced tinnitus - something, what happens in short time. Gradually induced hearing loss (by age, or some kind of slow genetic degeneration), may induce...

Just noticed this topic. Was cheering for Miocic and still :). Another mma fan here. Competeted 10 times myself, but stopped due to my career. Talking UFC; you know Dana had tinnitus in his 20ies...

Welcome to the forum. If you don't get a response, then try to post the same request in the main support forum where a much larger menbership can help answer your question. Are you sure that your hearing aids caused your recent spike? There are many causes which can trigger or aggravate...

Welcome to the forum. It seems you are looking for the cause of your 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 or Eustachian tube infection or ETD, ear drum injury...

...over time, so hopefully, your reactive tinnitus will disappear, too. In my years on Tinnitus Talk, I came across a member who suffered a head injury in a fall while helping his fiancee move. It bothered him so much that he was suicidal. Worse, his fiancée was so taken aback by his abnormal...

Anybody notice when looking at certain illness/disease etc that is listed on the internet, has tinnitus that is listed as a symptom of that injury,illness etc. Such as head/neck injury,atlas bone problems,b12 deficiency,magnesium defeciency and the list goes on and on. Makes me go crazy trying...

He has 2 T. One was caused by head injury since childhood and this one totally disappeared after treatment. The second one had an unknown cause and was reduced by 50%

...rushing in my head. Although it only happens at night (when lying down), it is loud enough to prevent me from sleeping. I have had a head injury and also an ear injury at a young age. I have not yet consulted an ENT doctor, but hope to in order to rule out anything serious. In the...

Hi there, how did it go, did your tinnitus improve? I hit my head in a similar way last night, and it has spiked my tinnitus quite a lot. Thank you.

...will generally go away, but that has not been the case for me. And it doesn't have anything to do with overprotection. I feel mine started with a head injury, which eventually led to some type of vestibulopathy. In other words, an inner ear injury that stress reduction alone will not cure.

Thanks Forever Hopeful. I have good days and bad days, and I'm uncertain what I can contribute it to. My ENT tested my hearing, she said I have minor hearing loss. Although I had a head injury in May which followed with a sinus infection and 24 days of antibiotic.

@arctic loon I'm I correct in that we can rude out all health problems including headaches and any noticed physical conditions beside a neck injury ? Can you tell me about your neck injury. Any relationship to whiplash or forward head posture? Have someone use a stethoscope over your carotid...

I've had Tinnitus since 2012 after a untreated head injury. It never goes away and is pretty loud. I've been to my doctor and he sent me to a ear specialist. No results or treatment. It effects my hearing and my sleep. There has just got to be something to get rid of it.

Most success stories I read come from TMJ, head injury or medication stories. I feel like its a mixed bag.

GB887- I suffered a head injury back in January. The (idiot) doctor didn't bother to check if I had suffered a concussion- nonetheless, 7 days later, I had really weird nausea, then when that passed, my new friend tinnitus entered my life, and has not left since. My head injury was pretty...

How much hearing loss do you have? Did you have a head injury, TMD, TMJ? Cervical issues. Anything else you suspect?

from Rick Simpson's Facebook page today. Rick "controls" his tinnitus, it is not "cured" as such, he takes his oil to keep the symptoms at bay, his tinnitus was caused from the head injury he received in 1997. Rick cured his "cancer", the oil is usually a "cure" or "control" for most things.

I had a tympanometry test, all was ok (twice!). But I feel fullness (in one ear) and cracking in head when I swallow (on both sides). Do you know what might help?

Wanted to add, tinnitus has so many causes. What do you think caused the beep? Were there any factors like a head injury or exposure to loud sounds? Also the cause might be something simple like a Vitamin B12 defiency. Talk to a doctor and ask about getting Vitamin B12 shots/injections.

Welcome to the forum. It is always not easy to pin point the exact cause of spiking tinnitus. I will list below some common causes of tinnitus or spikes of tinnitus. Check if you have any of these recently or during the spikes. There are many causes, single or combined, which can trigger or...

...T and H a lot worse. I would also say that at this point, anything that really gets my adrenaline going in general (being angry, upset, overly excited etc). I have cut out all caffeine, chocolate. and alcohol as these are also triggers. My T and H are due to a head injury/concussion in...
