...stressed at that point of time. My neck and shoulders are sore still and hurt daily, even now. Yes neck troubles specially trouble with C1 and C2 can cause T. Kevin Hogan (T expert) also says about 1/3 of the T trouble starts with head/neck region. I am also on a wild goose chase as to how...

...sound if I'm in the car listening to music, and a certain higher pitches happen. I was reading online about this possibly being due to C1 and C2 vertebrae being misaligned? (That it's TTTS, but with likely origins in spine misalignment.) Wondering about this, as I saw a chiropractor once...

..."Tonic Tensor Tympani Syndrome." It can be caused by a few different things, but stress can bring it on. They mentioned that your C1 and C2 in your vertebra could be misaligned and could cause these symptoms. I went to my chiropractor and told him what I had read and he said he would adjust...

@Beessie I think I've got my T because I started looking for it. This reddit helped me big time: http://www.reddit.com/r/tinnitus/comments/trn2m/tinnitus_16_years_later_tinnitus_oh_yea_i_forgot/%C2%A0 Also look up Julian Cowan Hill. I am leaving this forum now. Best wishes and God bless you.

It seems to me that you are still focusing on what might be causing your tinnitus. And I don't blame you in the least. Trying to identify and address what is causing your tinnitus is absolutely the logical thing to do. But at some point in time, if trying to identify and effectively address...

Yes, all three - PT, Ch and Os. :) I had / have issues in the left C2 area in my neck on the same side where the T is. I have been visiting a PT every 1-2 weeks since March and she has been able to release tensions etc and help a lot. I also have pain in the upper back on the left side, which is...

I got my first nerve block today . It was to my left cervical, C2-C5 I think. You need to get the nerve block test before the insurance will let you have a Neuro Ablation. I did ask the doctor about the facial nerve block but he said he cannot due that because it is MRI guided and he only has...

Yes my white blood cell count is normal. It was tested 2 weeks ago. Thank you for all the advice! If I'm sleeping on my back is it safe (or better) to just stop using a pillow? I usually sleep on my sides but do notice when I'm sleeping on my back that my head is pushed forward a good...

...be dead. I have never been a person to stay indoors, I have always been an extrovert. I’m scared guys. I can’t live like this. I just can’t. I’m praying that it improves over time, or with my chiropractor because my c1 and c2 were all messed up. That can cause hypercausis, and tinnitus, he...

...MRI shows issues from the disc C3/C4 to C7, mostly what seems common bulging/dehydration. Also a small cavity in those vertebra. However, C1-C2 ("usual suspects" on Tinnitus Talk) showed nothing of interest themselves, even if my neck rotation is quite limited due to SCM. My posture is very...

Hi Bill, i actually found out about Upper Cervical Chiropractors curing tinnitus through an article i came across last week: https://drtanase.com/2009/03/17/tinnitus-check-the-neck/ This seems to be a really promising way of curing tinnitus. I will give your Doctor a call and make an...

...of neck. It could be enhanced by posture and where one leg may be shorter than the other. I wonder if your C spine straighten and your C1 - C2 is off. I would try outward neck muscle therapy, but not muscle pressure therapy. A good therapist can tell what muscles need work, but it does...

Yes please keep me updated with you!

Interesting. I think you may have it from C1 and C2 vertebrae issues as that seems to be documented as a cause and you seem to have issues with your neck. If you get that aligned and fixed I bet it would help. May I ask what exactly you feel/hear as your symptoms. Was it similar to my...

...to the T and the droning noise you have. I've read things (by chiropractors, so not terribly reliable) that having a misalignment in the C1 or C2 vertebrae can cause dizzy symptoms and low frequency hearing loss. They have since ruled it out for me but sometimes with neck misalignment you...

Hi @Grok -- I just made A POST last night that touches on some of the things you're talking about. In it I describe some of the somewhat "alternative" approaches I'm using. -- All the Best... I posted the following in another post about 2 months ago... "One thing I started recently is...

...be done with it. I'm not a fan of meds and haven't taken any pain meds for almost a year. Strange I am not in more pain and the pain I've been having mostly seems to be around C1-C2 area, which came back normal on the MRI. Go figure! Think any of this could be causing my T?

Most "MP3 Players" nowadays play .wav, some even .flac. MP3 Player to me is more or less a term to define a portable audio player. I don't believe .mp3 files are useless for sound therapy - depending on the therapy performed, though. The frequency spectrum of the uncompressed, slightly...

...artery shorter than the other from birth. This leads to posture issues from muscle imbalance due to muscle spasms of neck. It causes the C1 C2 and C4 and lower cervical neck disc all the way down to lower back spine to react. It causes pressure and stress to the jaw and facial that can lead...

...your first onset of tinnitus it could be your jaw, TMJ, again the facial nerve, noise exposure or infection. If it was TMJ, then neck C1 and C2 probably has involvement unless major stress started you clench your teeth. I would continue with TMJ treatment - mouth guard Any discomfort at all...

I just wanted to so a quick update if it were to help anyone else. I went to the chiropractor and he said that my C1 and C2 were very much out of alignment and did some work on them and wants me to return today for more treatment. A few hours after the first treatment I felt like I did have...

...and neck pain so I started going to an upper cervical chiropractor last week. I didn't know anything about them but they only work on the c1 and c2 bones and a bunch of nerves go through those bones. I still need to go to another chiropractor for the back pain. I know that I'm doing all...

...pain, or numbness. (With the crossover of auditory and somatic input, this might also cause a referred perception of tinnitus.) Compression of C2 or 3 almost never happens at the spine, but compression of C2, 3 or the Accessory nerve (cranial nerve 11) could happen as it wraps around tight...

Please correct me if I am wrong, but these all lead to the DCN in the brain, and then tinnitus occurs. It is the only path into the brain. And thus "closing this door" stops tinnitus. If you want to write up a question, I will surely ask the researchers on the 11th when I go in for my initial...

...a noticeable difference in shoulder height when looking into a mirror. All of this is a major cause of tinnitus. Most likely it's the neck, the C1-C2 disc area which causes you to clench teeth. Wearing headphones while walking hard or with bending neck can increase strain on your neck. This...

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2760229/#R37 Some with tinnitus may tend to move their lower lip, lower teeth, gums, tongue, chin and jaw around. It's interesting how that connection is made to the C2 pathway that inhibits neurons in the DCN. I was led to this article from...
