my voice causing tinnitus??

Hi,

So Im in week 7 of tinntus nightmare. Thankfully each week there has been improvements and also changes. Last night I had a shower and when I came out my T was very similar to previous to this (very manageable and easy to forget). I felt much better about this and so put on some music and started to sing.

Well, my left ear started ringing and the higher the note I hit the louder the T (I would almost liken it to my ear was taken in too much sound or vibrating more with pitch and loudness).

So is this possible? I have somatic T in my right ear, no doubt. When I chew it flares up and when I push my jaw forward it gets louder. However this is not the case on the left.

Anybody have any answers? This is mad! Also please don't think Im loopy but all music is pretty much giving me tingles (like when you really like a song) but it's happening all the time. Is there a link between ear and tingles?

This is all very strange and Im seeing an ENT next week. He will think I'm mad!

Thanks!

Hi Smartone,

A year and 7 months on I still have tinnitus. I have been diagnosed with TMJD. The good news is it is getting better. Quieter and easier to cope with, so Im getting there. Im positive all round

But having TMJD wouldn’t explain how your Tinnitus drastically increased after a flight, right? I’m in a similar situation. Had a spike in my Tinnitus 2 months ago and ever since the night after a 6 hour flight ive had a new on and off “head buzz/static” noise. ENT said no flight could ever cause this but it’s just hard to believe since it was right after flying. I admit though I was very anxious and stressed and think maybe that triggered this, but who knows. Any thoughts? Thank you.

I dont know Smartone. Nobody has given me an answer as to why it happened. But I was told not to dwell on it and I think thats the best way to be. For me I think I fell asleep and my head was very low down when i woke up I think that kicked things off for me.Hope you can find someone who can help
