Hi everyone,
Glad to found this forum. I have been suffering from forward head posture tinnitus for some years now. I beat it the first time with exercises, stretches and physio and am now on my second round, as a result of losing a phenomenal amount of weight over the last year. Physio says that my posture has changed again and not for the better.
Problem was no helped by spending hours upon hours each slouched over a laptop for my work. I run an internet business. Have now changed that. Bought a really comfortable desk chair, proper desk and also a desktop computer, the screen of which, I have to look up to!
Problem not helped by the fact that I also have Eustachion Tube Dysfunction, which may well have helped to make the tinnitus in the first place. Thankfully this just occasionally manifests itself as a "full" right ear and temporary loss of hearing in that ear. Had problem all day today, but gone now. I think it is weather and climate related.
Presently undergoing physio and also doing stretches and exercise to try to beat tinnitus second time round. Have been told by many ENT's that tinnitus cannot be cured - one even told me to go out and buy an MP3....yeah right! But what do they know? Thankfully one switched on ENT told me to get physio some time ago to see if it works and it did.
Anyway glad to be here and hoping to learn more and to offer any feedback and experiences that I have.
