I have mild tinnitus although it is always there I am not bothered by it unless I read something like this article. It's like breathing I don't notice it until someone says something about it.
But I wouldn't doubt neck tension is an issue since I grind my teeth at night. Even awake and sleeping face down I can hear a sound like water rushing or a fluttering sound and realize it's my jaw muscles. I can't control it but I am sure it would be an issue and may cause or influence my tinnitus.
I tried the reddit neck method but no luck.
- eridius 11y agoGrinding your teeth is pretty bad for your teeth too, not just your muscles. You might want to talk to your dentist about this. They should be able to get you a custom-fit mouth guard to wear at night to try and counter this (though it's not cheap).
- dghughes 11y agoWelcome to my life. Yes several mouth guards/plates over the years at $500 each. I tried but I have acid reflux too and the combination of the guard and throat spasm makes me feel like I am suffocating. I need to destress or changed jobs. Or get a girlfriend.
