My ears ring all the time...

I read in this forum that somone had ringing ears and it was caused by TMJ. My ears ring all the time, i've not noticed it (I guess I've been ignoring it) until someone posted about it, it's annoying after a while.

Hi Ithica, I get the ringing some of the time, but not always. It can be SO distracting. I don't have a solution for you, but I just wanted you to know that I can relate. Hopefully someone will come up with some answers for that...

Yep, the ringing is a major symptom of TMJ. I've had it for a long as I can remember and just learned to live with it. I really don't notice it unless I'm in total silence -- then it drives me nuts.

I always have some type of white noise going - TV, radio, A/C, fan, etc.

I even go to sleep with the TV turned down really low.

They call it Tinnitus and there's not much that can be done for it.

Try the white noise to drown it out.
