Cervical tinnitus: legend or fact?
by R. Feinmesser and Y. Fluman
I’ve had my entire head and ears examined, and everything comes back perfectly normal. I have noticed that the ringing seems to subside after it rains, but then flares up again whenever my blood pressure spikes (or who knows what else). It also feels closely tied to some pain I get in my right shoulder and neck. My imaging actually showed a loss of cervical lordosis and some osteophytes. The catch? Most doctors insist that osteophytes can't actually cause these kinds of symptoms. I stumbled upon this article recently, and for anyone whose ears are healthy but the ringing just won't quit, it offers a bit of hope. Honestly, I was starting to feel like I was losing my mind because everyone kept trying to convince me it was my ears, my sinuses, my mental health, stress, menopause... you name it, they blamed it.
