Pressing the Mastoid Bone Stops My Tinnitus. Why?

If I press my mastoid bone (bone behind the ear with tinnitus) the tinnitus stops... why is this?

 

No one here knows. Make a device that attaches to your skull and presses on it all the time. Problem solved.

 

Maybe you're adjusting pressure on the auditory nerve or blood vessels. Have you asked an ENT or neurologist? Has it always done that?

 

Very interesting indeed. Yeah I would ask an expert about that, perhaps there is hope for you to cure it immediately.

 

Mine doesn't stop, but I think I can influence its pitch/the way it sounds when I press there(!)

 

Maybe somehow there is damage to the tubes connecting the ears and throat [eustachian tubes] or mastoid bone was infected like mine was.
My tinnitus seems like it's always been there.

 

My tinnitus stops when I press the tmj joint the joint joining ear end and the jaw end

 

Happening to me too, the t goes very very low . Like proper low

 

My T goes from 100 to 2 or 1 when I press my mestoid tube or the tmj joint

 

So you might have tmj. I believe that might be a treatable cause of tinnitus, so maybe you should get checked out for that.

 

@WaqasVic have you looked at TMJ or Mastoiditis as a cause of your T?
