Just a quick question, I'm still working on a process of illimination. Is it possible to change the volume/pitch of ETD induced tinnitus by moving your jaw. Any ideas or experience of this?

Cheers.

If your Tinnitus is caused by TMJ = temporo mandibular joint disorder, it might be possible to change the volume by moving your jaw.

Thanks for replying Mille.Apparently I don't have a TMJ disorder but I have all the symptoms of ETD with severe tinnitus. I can change the volume/pitch with jaw movement and am trying to discover if this is possible if ETD is the problem.

I have an EDT as well.

But no TMJ. I can’t pop my ears, by examination , my eardrums dont move, when I try popping the ears. Which they should. Tinnitus is intrusive 24/7. I feel blocked in my ears.

Later on in the year I am going to have another examination in the hospital. The ENT ‘ s I have seen , that is several, don’t agree in diagnosis, which is aperta tubae = open eustacian tubes or clogged eustacian tubes.

I’ve never tried to change the noise of tinnitus by moving my jaw. I suppose (now having tried it) that it does alter in tone just a bit.
