No that’s a good question. Me and my Chiro before the car accident thought my neck was causing the issues. I had subluxation in C1 and C2. Maybe it helped 5%? Nothing to really go crazy about though. Pretty sure it was ear damage from barotrauma, probably a PLF. Not sure at this point.

...junction, instability can cause the upper cervical spinal nerves to get irritated, leading to a sensitive scalp. In addition, the C0-C1 and C1-C2 facet joints can also get irritated. There's other nerves that exit the skull here that can get irritated. A facet cartilage-lined joint - there's...

Thank you for your comprehensive opinion. If by touch therapy you mean a chiro, then unfortunately, I doubt there is any upper cervical chiropractor in my country. And even then, it looks pretty dangerous. But is it possible to at least alleviate the symptoms of misaligned C1-C4 by regularly...

Thanks for those links. I don't think I ever saw these!

...I'm your girl when it comes to cervical injuries potentially related to tinnitus. I have damage throughout my cervical but in particular at C1-C2. If you haven't already I'd recommend you tag Greg Sacramento on here who's a retired physiologist with a ton of experience with cervical tinnitus...

I would call the radiologist for a C1 and C2 notation. The jaw probably doesn't need exam, unless there's considerable pain.

We know that TMJ - jaw is connected to the C1 and C2 where most of the time both go haywire at the same time and it does effect hearing. If this is the case for you, then you should have had some ASD and TTTS. Sometime whiplash to the neck does not show up for fifteen or more years. When the C1...

Hey thanks for all that info! I printed those resources off and showed them to my chiropractor who's been working on my C1 and C2. She also believes the culprit is my jaw and neck. Last week I began a new treatment with my massage therapist who is certified to do Rapid Adhesion Release...

@ryand may I ask how things are going with that shifted c2 dens-odontoid process?

...Sorry that you are hurting so much by your tinnitus. Since turning your neck had caused your tinnitus, have you ever received upper cervical adjustments? There are chiropractors specialized in this. Perhaps they can check if your C1 and C2 are in alignment. Good luck and take are. God bless.

I have had mouth guard for 12 years but I grind so much that I still put a lot of stress in my jaw and neck. Currently I have severe pain. NUCCA is like upper cervical chiropractor, but they specialize in the C1 and C2 and are very gentle.

Hi Strange_loop, How are you now? Is your tinnitus any better? I also went to Chiro and she told me I have issues with C1 C2 in my neck and needs adjustment. I have had tinnitus since 2018.

...fullness is a pain though. Last April I had a mri. Doc says my ears look fine. He did say I have some moderate issues going on in my neck. C1 and C2 area.I did have a bad fall when I was a kid which I believe screwed up my c1 c2. I think that is what is causing my tinnitus,earfulness. I have...

What about IV Cefazolin?

...not even placebo effect from it yet. We will see. I’m doing 3 sessions daily, and am on day 4. They advised anxiety should respond quicker than any other condition. The TENS would exclusively be for testing tinnitus in C2. That I won’t be doing until end of next week separate from Alpha-Stim.

@Codaz Have you tried TENS to C2 area in the neck like in the De Ridder's study?

Yes high pitched PT, but I am in the middle of treatment right now which reduces it. The procedure I had last week is called Ganglion C2 Electric freq pulse. It calms the nerve in C2 in the neck from what I understand and. It helped a lot. It is not gone yet though. Also lowering my blood...

My chiropractor told me my right C1/C2 are misaligned. problems with my shoulder and hips misaligned. My hyperacusis is mostly on the right which is where the misalignment is. I also have muscles imbalance issues. Some muscles become shorter and some muscles are too long. I’m trying to fix these...

I was reading that Susan Shore's device targets the trigeminal nerve, the same as Lenire, but her device also targets two other nerves C1,C2 somatosensory. So it seems to be similar.

I was thinking about the C1 and C2 as well, there's a Upper Cervical Chiropractor about 30 minutes away, but I don't know if Medicaid would even cover such a thing.

Re, you should read this thread : https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/acoustic-cr%C2%AE-neuromodulation-a-new-treatment-for-tinnitus.219/

For me, Advil helps. I got a neck injury to C1 and C2 from lifting heavy stuff. Muscle relaxants and anti-inflammatories help. Been going to chiropractor for it. Maybe you could check with an upper cervical one - check alignment. Misalignment can cause tinnitus. Anti-inflammatories can reduce...

Doctors don't do them at c1 c2? Ya.I'm thinking my neck has something to do with mine too..good luck!!!!!!!!hope it helps you!!

...blood pressure can also cause arteriosclerosis. Muscle pressure to C-spine will need treatment along with very gentle treatment of tilt of C1-C2. Very important is to address alar and accessory ligaments with lateral overhang of C1 on C2 - see views #8 and #9. Warm moist compresses on neck...

Attachment 16672 is a reference showing cranial nerves and spinal nerve C2. Susan Shore is involved in spasm of the sternocleidomastoideus and trapezius due to possible strain of the sensory fibers of the spinal accessory nerve on exit of the C2-C4 spinal nerves. Also treatment sometimes...

Power consumption of the device is 10 w Usually the light power is a fraction of that depending on LED effectiveness 200mw/c2 as a result

@Greg Sacramento, When you mentioned C2-C5 I was thinking of your neck at first lol, not catastrophic T. Body problems can sure be distressing.

I know the feeling, I have tinnitus and severe hearing loss in my right ear. I also have tinnitus in my left ear with mild/moderate hearing loss.

Hi @Lucia Zuani. Thank you for your kind comments. Sound Oasis sound machines can be bought from their website in the link below. They can also be bought from US Amazon in the link below. The S-680-02 is popular and the one I recommend. Their top model is S-6000 which I have. More than 100...

C1 / C2 isn't necessarily atlas. If there is something stuck work gently on it. It's necessary that the muscles aren't tight. This can be done by training your upper back muscles also.

I hadn’t honestly considered using it for tinnitus but I’m waiting for Alpha-Stim to get back to me to confirm whatever protocol there is for that. I’ll have the underside of my head shaved next week for the TENS unit treatment and will keep you posted. :)

So I keep hearing doctors say if the fluttering comes on with a yawn or whatever they say your could have the C1 and C2 vertebrae out of alignment

...Metamizole and Meropenem - slight risk. Statistical analysis showed that hearing loss was dependent on treatment (c2 =23.741, p = < 0.001). Overall, statistical analysis showed that there is an increased risk of hearing loss when treated with amikacin and/or meropenem as compared to no...

...with fat from around my belly button, but no help with the tinnitus. An IV of Lidocaine knocks out tinnitus but it’s not practical. I know my C2 is bad according to my report from Piper. I guess the neck nerves can crossover to the hearing nerves somehow and cause tinnitus. I still have a...

...Tensor Tympani Syndrome can be the result of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) problems and/or upper cervical spine problems—specifically, your C1 and C2 vertebrae being out of proper alignment. In cases of non noise trauma with neck, jaw lash injury will happen almost all the time...

It was a NUCCA type that aligns C1 and C2 or was it a regular Chriropractor? I'm glad to hear it is working for you. I will see a NUCCA specialist in two weeks to start the process.

How long do you spike after adjustment?

...Give it time to heal. Two weeks. Then if needed very light flexion - head down a bit (2 inches) and then slowly up to free it. You probably have little space between C2 and C3. Just try a couple of times a day until it's free. Accessory nerve (CN XI): Anatomy, pathways and function | Kenhub

Any update on this? If I can get a consult, I’ll obviously inquire.

@Fleegle, so glad. Big Hug. The C2 - C3 junction is where flexion and extension occur (flexion is the movement of the chin toward the chest and extension is the backward movement of the head). C3 vertebra is in line with the lower section of the jaw and hyoid bone, which holds the tongue in...

this is not optical power - its only the power drawn by the LED , if the efficiency is 25%then the optical power in w/c2 is far less which may be the case here

@joseph Ghass I see a great Chiro every week and do homework exercises.

@NiviaN How is your cervical spine? - your neck - Is your posture good? The C1 and C2 joint disks are inline with your temporomandibular joints. Do you do a lot of lifting with your neck bend forward?

Have you ever tried TENS on the C2 region yourself? I have a TENS device myself, but its not working.. Maybe Ill have to order another one :P Im also trying out some meds at the moment to see if anything helps. Ill probably try out retigabine as well :)

If you're talking about "Clear Tinnitus", it's homeopathic, and thus, does not actually do anything in the body. https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/clear-tinnitus%C2%AE-%E2%80%94-herbal-temporary-remedy.188/

@stophiss it's comments like yours that stop people from adding success stories. be kind. please.

...are doing great. These are often the two areas of physical cause. We have discussed both and you are going with treatment in link two - C1 and C2. What I also often mentioned is in link one - suboccipital muscles. Both relate to TMJ, but clenching of teeth from stress, having mouth open too...

Yes - With a jaw problem and being somatic C1 C2 scanning would be helpful. A scan over your jaw would also help. The L4 L5 may involve an injury such as falling, lifting something off balance with arms extended or bad posture.

@Greg Sacramento How can I get in touch with you? I just got diagnosed with Chiari and apparently I have c1 fusion? (I'm not sure yet, still confused about everything, but there is something wrong with c1 and c2)

I had a cervical MRI half a year ago, I have slight degenerative changes I had an MRI of my neck on March (had numbness in my hands back then) and it showed that my C5-C6 are dehydrated and have shortened + but the other vertebrae are fine... :dunno:

@Dr. Jay Hobbs @just1morething What's your views for the best treatment for C1,C2 area with a straighten neck with arthritis? There's prolotherapy and Atlas adjustments. There's also massage for the suboccipital and SCMs. Thanks

It's a Citroen C2. Its a small car.

^ yes, that theory about DCN makes sense. It's also backed up by studies like using TENS machine to C2 in neck, which is discussed in another thread here. TENS (electricity) supresses T for some patients 100%.

Thanks Carlo, Have you tried it? Darren

Sorry you are in a such a bad state of mind. I have TMJ & cervical spine issues as well. I did have my left TMJ fixed with a stomach fat transfer. I have upcoming injections to my C2 & C3 area to see if that helps with my tinnitus. Pain and noise is not a good combination to have.
