Where does the sound come from?

My ENT doctor told me that even at this moment scientists still don't
know where the T sound comes from but it certainly comes from a
certain part of our body.  I have found this kind of explanation
beyond my normal mode of comprehension.  Is there any scientific
instrument over the horizon that could be used to detect which part of
the body makes the sound?

Any comments?

Francis, from what I've observed, that fart sound comes from the arm pit
however my observation doesn't always square with the ambiance.  I suggest
using the gas chromatograph.

Well, now we know both how you amuse yourself and how you keep yourself warm
during those long Minnesota winters.

I think the majority of tinnitus (subjective tinnitus) is not a sound
but, rather, a perception of sound similar in concept to a person that
has an arm amputated still being able to feel pain in the arm.  

The question in this case really is what part of the brain is
perceiving this sound and why.  That is what is unexplained.

The traditional Chinese medical doctors blame it on the kidney.  And
that specific part of the brain which represents the kidney is raising
a sound to signal what is wrong in the kidney.  When I had my T onset
at first, i was constantly given the herbs that were meant to look
after the kidney.  The herbs did produce some silence.  But in order
for the silence to continue, one has to boil the herb tea daily and it
was a laborious exercise.  Most T patients don't have the patience to
continue with the herb treatment.  However, i have been on ready made
herb pills for this treatment for the past few months.  It has not
'cured' my T yet but instead made my sex life more vibrant.

Sounds is not enterpreted as sound waves in the brain but electrical signals
much like in a computer.
if the ear is a harddisk or USB device and the brain is the CPU then the
cables could produce dataerrors if they are damaged and there could be an
error in the software that scanes the signals.

There is no sound but the center in you brain that scannes for signales from
the ears either get a constant signal from the ear or make one up.
