Not sure ears or ringing or I'm nuts

In so stressed by my dentist pushing my jaw back that I feel I hear ringing all the time. If I go out driving and concentrating on that and paying attention to the road, I don't notice it. I'm so far gone mentally I can't even tell

Like 10 minutes of it and see if that helps. I do this due to tinnitus and it often helps. In yoga they call it bumble bee breath.

I had this problem for years. Then I got hearing aids. As long as the hearing aids are in, I don't have it. When I take them out, it comes back. So not a cure, but a fix. So you might try hearing aids or an audiologist if you're having this issue.

I have it but it doesn't bother me.

I also have tinnitus. It doesn't go away. The only time it bothers me is when I'm trying to go to sleep.

Left jaw popped out. Spent 32k cash and dentist jammed my jaw back hard. Since I wrote this, I now have migrating headaches and jaw tingling. I'm terrified

I hate dentists.

I had a couple surgeries in the past 5 years, and discovered that taking Tylenol and advil together works really well. That's all I got.
