Sounds like it's TMJ or connected to a neck or jaw injury. Electric shocks are damaged nerves. Where are you getting the painful shocking feeling? Because that's where your nerves are damaged. It might be worth seeing a doctor about this. Have you tried massaging your jaw joints and the back...

Can you make an appointment with a neurologist to more completely assess the blow to your head? Please make sure to seek medical attention now, even though your symptoms are at their worst and you might feel less inspired to do so. NOW is sooner than later on, and the earlier you investigate...

...only work one way and be "stuck". The brain doesn't have preferences. Reversing the cause should reverse maladaptive plasticity just like mirror therapy treats maladaptive plasticity with phantom limb pain. Now if tinnitus is from a direct head injury, then yes treating the cochlea won't...

We have agreement with that - Levine and others for a longtime have discuss modulation. I once posted 80%, and someone posted back no way. So I had to provide a source - link. Maybe way back on this thread. What I'm questioning which I didn't word well, by saying "beyond all that" is that...

That wouldn't be a problem for you. Vertebral artery dissection from injury such as from whiplash would likely cause severe headaches and would relate to pulsatile tinnitus. Can you describe your range of motion exercise, because so much needs to taken into consideration with also having...

Spinal fluid is most likely causing central oscillating along with injuries. Healing of anatomy discussed is of importance. Neck muscles and ligaments need to be loose. There's two ways to accomplish this. Emotional aspects- watch comedy or a happy movie - one for patients was Notting Hill -...

It's most likely your neck and posture causing your problem - arteries of back side of neck that pump blood. With that often lymph fluids, nasal fluids and fluids from ETD are also involved. It appears that you had a neck injury at some point, then neck muscle spasms from lifting head in a lying...

Have you had any close calls/bullets that you had miraculously dodged? Earlier this week, I slipped on my concrete driveway and fell backwards. I had instinctively moved my arms in such a way that I landed on my elbow and ripped my jacket. I came very close to hitting my head against concrete...

Maithe, what are the antibiotics you were given? I am hoping it is not cipro. There are many causes of t from head injury to medications to ear wax build up to tmj to neck injuries, to high blood pressure to infection to noise exposure. Or have you just been through a traumatic event? Have you...

@ShellyW Hi Shelly. It seem like it's your spinal accessory nerve that passes thru the trapezius and sternomastoid muscles which allows the head to tilt and rotate. Along with injury to the seventh cranial nerve that innervates the stapedius muscle in the middle ear. It most likely...

...started. I’ve been to several doctors and an ENT, who found no hearing loss or earwax etc. It has been about 2 months, and it seems to have faded from the onset. I was wondering if anyone has contracted tinnitus after a head injury like myself and what the odds of it going away are? Thanks!

...loss, with asymmetrical dips of about 20db around the 1 to 2 kHz frequencies is seen in about two-thirds of people who have experienced a head injury. Sometimes the hearing loss may be more pronounced - in which case the person will notice automatically. But in the above cases, where the...

Hi all, I was diagnosed with tinnitus in August 2020 following an episode of severe depression which resulted in me suffering a concussion injury. It's a high pitched sound, in both ears and has been constant since the event. In addition to this I've also started hearing like a 'whooshing'...

@Greg Sacramento I have been reading with interest your reply to OP. I have the same symptoms i.e. increase/decrease in tinnitus depending on head situation (mainly lying in bed). You asked OP if they remembered injuring collarbone so I wanted to ask whether injury to rotator cuff could also...

Holy cow! Hope your doing alright buddy. I hit my head 16 months ago and my life changed forever. I am merely existing and not living due to my head injury. Even mild ones change you forever. I hope you didn't have to face any of the troubles

Here is the revised version without hyphens: @Nick47 and anyone else reading, I take all my meds around 7:30 PM. The purpose is mainly to suppress my symptoms and help initiate sleep. I wasn't aware that Carbamazepine induces liver enzymes that metabolize Mirtazapine. This might explain why...

You mentioned extreme stress for extended periods of time. Once that stress is relieved, have you seen people improve? twa

Hi; I want to thank everyone for the responses and to make a clarification. I had a head injury, not exposure to chainsaw noise. Thanks for the suggestions for the various possible cures, I'll look into them and share them with my doctor. I'm not sure how much she does or doesn't know about...

Hi I'm new to this site an wondered if anyone can help. My tinnitus started the day after a head injury which left me with 6 staples in my head and concussion. I've been suffering from vertigo and low frequency tinnitus for about 8 months now and it's driving me crazy. Audiology have been great...

...I don't hear it but when its quiet and I listen for it I can. Can it be blocked eustachian tubes? I have not been exposed to loud noises or had a head injury for that matter. I'm now on day 4 of tinnitus and it's driving me nuts because I'm worried it may become permanent. Please help. Thank you.

Hello, woke up this morning with my T lower, like every morning. Went to drop my son at daycare and bumped my head on the car door. Can you believe that after 7 years of non-stop T, my T disappeared completely for an hour?? I have to admit that I freaked out, I thought I would have a heart...

I have T since the end of 2014, due to head injury from a traffic accident. Two months is very early days, hang in there and it will get better.

Wondering how you got on? I had a significant head injury last July. Wonder if this has anything to do with the relapse now. Is your tinnitus only in your ears?

...what an ordeal you've been through. Your determination to stay optimistic and hopeful is highly commendable! I myself had a serious head injury as a teenager, and suffered for years, not knowing it had left significant residiual damage--the kind of damage that often does not show up on...

actually i was wrong - its not the scapula but some damaged fiber of in the trapezius that produces tinnitus in my case. see my latest thread, where i confirmed it 100%.

So do you not have tinnitus now? I have had a similar experience as you before my ear problems. For many years if I shook my head quick back and forth like a wet dog, I would hear a slight sharp shaking noise in my head/ ear. It might have started when I was blasted many years ago in a HiFi...

Cervical spondylosis with swirling noise. Most likely development was from a sudden injury. I have many medical articles about this and each one discusses different things that could had happened that can cause somatic or pulsatile tinnitus or both. Arteries - often the vertebral, carotid or...

Ok so is there a good chance to get cured? I’m fairly certain it’s from the whiplash so I don’t want to spend money on a doctor if they’re going to tell me what I already know without a cure. What measures could be taken to fix this?

...0.62% - Ear wax build up 0.60% - Otosclerosis 0.40% - Allergy 0.38% - Metabolic (diabetes, thyroid, B12, hyperlipidaemia etc.) with "somatic tinnitus" is obvious. Maybe, e.g., somatic tinnitus is often (80%?) at head injury and seldom with ototoxity (10%?). This would be a very important fact!

I think it really varies with each individual, and the circumstances surrounding their getting hyperacusis (I believe mine was the result of a head injury). I'm keeping a minimally invasive surgery in mind as I contemplate my options: A New Treatment For Hyperacusis 2016 2nd Seminar Master

@just1morething It's nice to connect with you again, but I wish that it wasn't related to our situation. Maybe a chat about football, or about an outdoors adventure would be ideal. After a year of research, I convinced that injury to the jaw is a major cause of physical tinnitus. A Dr. Stylis...

Like a headache, anything happening in your head affects your entire body systemically both physically and emotionally as with your heart which is in contrast to something like a leg injury which generally has only a local affect. This is why tinnitus is so difficult to go through because...

Hello everyone. I hope you guys are doing well. Lately my hyperacusis seems slightly worse. I do have occasional temporary setbacks (as in burning pain for some hours or days) after loud noises but my neck and jaw aren't doing too great either (I'm a stomach/side sleeper). I'm trying to find...

If I had told you the amount of medical problems I acquired after tinnitus and hearing problems it would sound like a cruel joke. I'm f***in 21 with the health of a 80-year-old. But it doesn't really matter as I was debilitated when I 'only' had the hearing problems and tinnitus and should have...

@PTsufferer, increased pressure from a slightly larger or smaller jugular vein can affect your ears, causing dizziness, tinnitus, pulsatile tinnitus and/or hearing loss. I have seen this on occasion. The right interior jugular vein is always slightly larger than the left. Did notations mention...

I'm reading this with great interest. Myself, I suffered a head injury back in January. My T is not pulsatile however, it is a constant tone, high pitched, primarily in my right ear (or right side of the head). Applying pressure to my temple region, moving my jaw a certain way, and...

Welcome to the forum. Sometimes members here list a reason for their tinnitus as 'cumulative damage' by noise exposure over a long period. At the time tinnitus shows up, it may not be right after another noise exposure event. But acoustic trauma is only one of the causes of tinnitus. Perhaps I...

No one, even scientists, knows the exact mechanism of noxacusis (pain hyperacusis). The Type II neurons theory is, after all, just a theory and needs further investigation. We don't know if Dr. Shore's device helps pain hyperacusis but let's hope calming DCN also regulates Type II neurons firing.
