Head Position Changes Tinnitus?

[RichardRR]

Hi all! Had a recent discovery at work. I had my ear plugs in while vacuuming and I bent down to plug in my vacuum, but as I stood back up I noticed my T get louder for a moment. So I did a test; I stood straight, lowered my head perpendicular to my body and put it back up right. As I lifted me head, my T again got louder and went back to normal after my head was back up right. Anyone else have this and/or know why it happens? Thanks!

Neck problems and movements can change your tinnitus sound and cause tinnitus and for some positional vertigo..lots of love glynis

Hi RichardRR,

I have Pulsatile Tinnitus only. Like you my tinnitus fades out when I lower my head perpendicular to my body
(I'm bending at the waist) and then as I raise my head, the PT gets kicks in and then completely disappears when my head is back in the full upright position. Have you ever got to the bottom of this?

Thanks
Ian
