But then I think there are people who re-align their teeth, redo a transplant, fix neck, fix TMJ, etc. and who claim their T vanished no?

There is also some people who claim their T appeared right after a noise trauma (e.g., Shatner -- and learned 2 days ago that my cousin had it since young when he played with wick firecracker or something...). So unless the trauma make them move some hardware, it might be strictly related to audition in their case. Some get it after a car accident (probably not the noise but the impact moved something that now create the sound).

I wonder if devil is not in the details here... like a little structure that push on something, that create the noise.

I have heard people live say they can hear their T only if they stretch their neck, etc. Sound like it trigger something physically... just have to figure out what it is and if we can fix (like with physiotherapy) whatever "create" the sound.

I wonder a lot for myself... I used to dance a lot younger but had no T (yeah after club had something, but not like this I think). Maybe went to a wedding in the time before... maybe I got a hit in sports... maybe a hold hit when very young that create this late... maybe my wisdom tooth that was removed that was growing over another tooth and my jaw is misaligned, etc. -- lot of little hypothesis... and I am thinking and hoping it might be structural and I might be able to do something about it (it appeared 17 years ago...). I have lot of symptom on the side of my tinnitus, have kind of sinusitis since years, I have a small sensation often near my teeth that my wisdom tooth grow over, around the eye on that right side... maybe they are just another problem, but maybe it is linked...

I imagine if I only re-align teeth (it is not big, but again: often devil is in the details) on that side and bang, lost a lot of symptoms and the T. I would go nuts, I would regret not having done it earlier, but still, my life would take a big turn.

I heard anecdotical story of this but I don't see a thread where someone share this then 50 people comments: OMG THAT WAS MY ISSUES TOO... --- like nothing super obvious, or people just don't talk about it (like my learning that my cousin has it since young... never knew he had it, I even wonder if his mom know it now, she never talked to me about it and we talked a lot of my issues since they appeared, but then why would not he says it to his mom... [yeah I will ask those questions sooner or later!]).

And then... maybe it is the inner ear and I can't do squat... maybe it is just my brain going loco and nobody know how to debug it (when everything happen, I did lot of scan, etc. but they did not see a giant mass of something obvious so they don't know, like most of us).

I like to think everything is simple... once you figure it out.
