Its been 5 months since one day i woke up in the middle of the night with a buzz on both ears similar to like when you get a tingling in your legs/hands/arms. Recently, last 2-3 weeks, the T has gone done and last week I went 5 days with no T but came back and when it came back I noticed a few...

@sandra72 Yes I know what you mean by the jaw no opening or closing straight. It goes up crooked right? Mine also goes up first on the right then the left. The splint is helping with this. Im on My 3rd week will see in a few weeks if it helped for the T seems like it is but dont want to be too...

@Kara77 how long did you wear the splint before noticing a difference?

@Kara77 @sandra72 Does your T flare up if you exercise like jogging or on the eliptical?

@uae96 Ive felt its gone down but im only 3 weeks into using it, after a 2 month use i think i will be able to better andwer that question. Most threads I have read say the splint doesnt help :-(

@uae96 I have a tmj issue (mild), whether that is the cause of my tinnitus im not sure only time may tell. Most of the time my tinnitus is mild ir I can barely hear it. My jaw feels better wearing it I have very clicking left and my muscles feel better. Two ENT and the dentist told me there...

@sandra72 @Kara77 I'm about to complete 3 weeks wearing the splint and the hiss has gone down a lot. The dentist did say it would take 3-4 weeks before I would notice a difference, the biggest difference is my back teeth are no longer hitting. The ENT did say it would take 1 month minimum...

@Kara77 ok.my tmj is not much of a problem as a misaligned jaw and tight muscles caused by wrong bite, i had a very high crown, whether this is truly the cause of my tinnitus remains to be seen, but I think the doc and dentist are correct there are too many symptoms that happened about the same...

@sandra72 Sandra I seem to have some of the same symptoms. I'm on my second week with the splint. My sound is more like sssssssss for most days it mostly low, sometimes I get this really bad itch in my ear like behind my ear drum, and it can happen on either side, although happens more on my...

Ok, oh well I'm on my second week with the splint. Well see how it goes?

@Nucleo Thanks for the response. Did you go through treatment? My ringing sound which is now a hiss started waking up one day with buzzing/ringing ears, next day i couldn't turn my neck to one side, and then I started noticing jaw clicking on my left side. All the symptoms came upon about the...

@Kara77 Thank you for responding. When I tap my back molars my hissing sound increases or when I open my jaw (it doesn't have to be very wide open either). Did you experience such symptoms?

@jeannie Any update in you splint usage?

@jeannie Did the splint work?

@Kara77 Was your tinnitus like hiss sound? Did you have dull ear aches or sudden bad itches? Also how long after you wore the splint did you notice a difference? Thanks

@Nucleo Thanks. I had one done, x-ray panoramic and x ray of tmj and dentist said they were not in alugnment but I was not popping out of the socket. No mri of the tmj joint.

I didnt have the facial pain but had the neck pain and upper back shoulder pain.

@Nucleo What if tinnitus started at or around same time of neck issues, should pain, 1 side of the jaw clicking? Hearing test is normal?

@Kara77 - Thanks for the info. It would be interesting to share symptoms of your TMJ issue and tinnitus. When I started with tinnitus about 3 months ago, there were a few symptoms that came relatively close to each other (less than 1 week), tight neck, opening the jaw was a clicking sound on the...

I have chronic gastritis and silent acid reflux. Can that cause tinnitus?

I replied back to another thread of yours. Does your T increase when opening your mouth? Does the T increase or get a sudden louder ringing when eating?

I thought I would chime in to this thread and hopefully can help the author. Back in March, I woke up one day with buzzing sounds, the next day a bad ring which seemed to come from the left at times difficult to point out. Within a 2-4 days I noticed a clicking on the my left tmj when chewing...

Interesting thread. One day I woke up in the middle of the night to tinnitus on both sides. I had not been exposed to any noise days prior to this happening. The next few days I noticed a stiff neck and limited rotation and occasionally clicking on the left side of my jaw when chewing. I went...

What are the best way to protect the ears? Plugs? Noise canceling headphones? If you have tinnitus 1. Noisy hall, bar, club, party, etc? 2. Dentist? 3. MRI machine? 4. On board airplane? 4. In general? If you do not have tinnitus would you still protect in most cases above?

Forgot to inlcude, yes I was very stressed out and depressed a few days before it happened.

I know this is an old thread but I thought I would chime in. Woke up one day around 3am and noticed a weird sound. Also noticed a still neck a day after and limited rotation in my neck. No history of ear infection, last ear infection age 18, now 38 Did listen to loud music especially in my...

would an MRI pick up an infection of the ear? Or could tinnitus be caused by ETD (clogged tubes)?

Will taking Predisone (steroid) for a week help at this point?

I pulled a neck muscle (left side) about 4 weeks ago. About a day later I noticed a high pitch sound and woke up to buzzing ears. Next day I noticed some clicking on my jaw on the left side (didn't happen before). Went to 2 ENT's, had a hearing test which was normal and ear MRI was normal...

I think there is a relationship, I woke up one day with neck stiffness and buzzing/hissing ears. Turns out I had pulled a neck muscle. Went to 2 ENT and told them about my neck issue and how the T started, they didn't seem interested and one said it was unlikely it was related. I started...

Wow, I thought I was the only one who woke up one day with T and a pulled neck muscle (give or take 1 or 2 days apart). I woke up with my neck chin down and turned to the side, it was terrible. I noticed an improvement of about 50% after 1 week of neck physical therapy but i'm still missing...

I'm at 38 year old male. Almost 4 weeks ago, one day I woke up in the middle of the night with like buzzing/hissing ears which followed in the morning with a high pitch sound, at night it was more of a buzz and during the day it was more of high pitch sound, mostly coming from the left ear...
