Hi, I've had tinnitus since 2000, and have'nt ever realley bothered to get
it looked at as I wrote it off as noise damage from concerts etc and overuse
of headphones in the past, however I also did do the occasional scuba dive
at the time and have hypertension and a jaw that pops every time i open it
as well a fairly stiff neck since last october.  All these seem from my
reading to be possible causes of various types of damage that can lead to
tinnitus - so where would i start.
One interesting fact is that mine is almost the identical sound to that you
get when you clench your jaw - it just raises the volume even more for a
brief period.

Any ideas?
