    Hi Everyone! Fairly new to the forums, told my story of Meniere's last week, so thank you for the responses!
    My question is, does your Tinnitus change when you move your jaw or face? I can change the tone of mine when moving my jaw. I notice when I move my jaw/ cheek closer to the ear affected the Tinnitus gets louder.
    I know many of you do have this, but what does this mean? Very curious as to why this changes the tone. Thanks in advance!

    My usual tinnitus (several different tones) doesn’t change with anything.

    I occasionally get “typewriter” or “Morse code” tinnitus that maybe disappears with better posture.

    Yes, mine changes. It gets louder if I open my jaw or touch my face or ear. Look up somatic tinnitus.

    Mine definitely does. If I push my lower jaw outwards it changes the frequency.

    Mine do when moving the jaw completely or stretching the neck on the meniere side.

    Mine changes when I touch the outside of my ear.
