Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Tinnitus / October 2006Progressively louder T with hand pressure on head and neck and even on a soft pillow?
5 months of T and the worst is upon awakening from a night sleep OR just a nap, it is synchronous and pulsitile to my heat pulse and very scary, it minimizes upon awakening and up off the bed. Does anyone have the T when your pressing on the neck or face or head or upper teeth pressure, the lower teeth produce nothing in sounds! and trying to put your head on a soft or any pillow or neck and the T get sooooo obvious and louder its difficult to get to sleep. I do NOT have tmj already diagnosed negative although fitted with mouth guards or moras just to align the jaw but really no help there. Upon awakening the T is pulsating with T sounds (not sure what is happening when asleep). Is there a sound in the forest when a tree falls if no one is there? Why cant I place my face and neck on any surface without loud T. ? Stress/ anxiety of course increases the T. but even stress meds like klonopin really to help much except to get you to bed faster but awakening is same T. thanks buzz.

Tinnitus that is at the rate and synchronous with the pulse rate is often objective tinnitus and may be due to a vascular condition. If so, it is not caused by stress or diet or whatever. This requires a workup by a specialist. If no cause can be found after various tests have been performed, then it is most likely due to MUSCLE TENSION. Please see a massage therapist - trusted chiropractor, physiotherapist, aroma therapist etc. See if there is tension in your body. Ask questions of the therapist. Where is the tension? What can I do about it etc? Then ask your self: What am I doing during the day that could be causing this? Do you clamp a phone in your neck? - get a headset. Are you sitting badly? - improve your posture. Is your computer positioned correctly? Is the monitor at eye level - no peering up or down. Is the keyboard roughly at your waist level? Is your chair comfortable? no slouching. Do you drive a lot? see travel tips Try some of the neck exercises at: http://www.nismat.org/orthocor/programs/neck/neckex.html 3. A relaxation exercise by an internet ENT, Dr Murray Grossan: http://www.tinnitusrelief.net/ I had a brief episode some years ago. I had become aware of muscular tension by this time, so I got rid of it as soon as I could. I had been a passenger in a a car on a long trip. After driving for 2 whole days I began to feel as if an iron band had grown around my chest. When I bent down to pick something up off the floor the PT kicked in. My seating position had not been what it normally is when I am the driver. I usually have a cushion in my back and sit up straight. Because I was a passenger I thought this was not so important. But I was wrong. I put the cushion back and sat upright for the next week. The PT went.
