Cause of Tinnitus
Loud noise
So I just found out for some reason when I move my head to the right and then move my jaw to the right kinda fast I hear the squeaky whoosh sound in my left ear. I can kinda do it on the left side of the my head but it's not as loud as the right. The thing is the lift side of my head where I can hear this whoosh is the same side my tinnitus is on. I really want to know what this is and also I'm new to this site and that's it thanks.
 
Welcome to the forums.
Does the whoosh stop after movement or with you all the time?..?lots of love glynis
 
It stops right after I move my jaw it's a quick noise and only happens when I move it. It's not bothersome I just really want to know what's going on and what it is and if it's normal.
 
Your jaw joint is right near your middle ear so its so easy to pick up sound from it .
If nothing happens when talking and eating then its normal what you could be hearing putting your head and jaw into a not normal position....lots of love glynis
 
Also last question why can I hear it better in my left ear but not my right, also my jaw can go farther when I move it to the right but not when I move it to the left.
 
Im not sure as I dont think its from your carotid arteries....lots of love glynis
 
Another question. Say in like a couple years if I were to do this again will there be a noise or no. Also can you do this cause I really am getting a feeling this is not normal.
 
Mercedes,

It's possible you have a misalignment of your jaw. You could go to a dentist or TMJ specialist to be checked out, if it continues to bother you.
 
It doesn't bother me cause I can make this noise whenever I want but of course I don't. If my jaw is aligned again will this sound stop? If I get rid of my wisdom teeth and get braces will this help?
 
I don't know, Mercedes. But that would be a good question to ask your dentist or doctor. He could check you out and tell you whether there is some misalignment, and if so, what might help.
