My ears have been ringing for 4 nights in a row. Before that they would ring every now and then. I am wondering if I have TMJ. THanks Deidre
Deidre – TMJ disorder can affect your ears. It can cause pain or sensitivity in your ears or tinnitus—ringing in your ears. Tense jaw muscles can affect the ears and cause ringing or vertigo.
But ringing in the ears is not the only sign of TMJ. Head and neck pain, jaw pain, and headaches are some of the other symptoms.
The only way to receive an accurate diagnosis is to visit a dentist who is trained in TMJ treatment and diagnosis. Make an appointment for an examination.
