    Had No Problems with Tinnitus Until a Week Ago — Is My Clenched Jaw the Culprit?

    I've had tinnitus for just over 5 years after going to a loud show and standing too close to the speaker. At first it was hard, but within a few months I had habituated, despite it being quite unstable for the first year or so (it would get louder and quieter, and even be painful sometimes). I...
