Is This TMJ??? What Can It Be???

Hey guys new to this board. I have been having problems i nmy right ear lately and havent been able to tell what it is. I went to the doctor checked my hearing and everything is fine.

The problem is that everytime i walk there is a clicking noise i nmy right ear. This only happens when im walking it doesnt happen when i chew or when i am not walking. So i dont know exactly what it is and nobody has posted about something like that.

If you have any ideas it would be appreciated. I am 16 years old and its been bugging me for 2 weeks now it has also affected me mentally.

The probel only occurs when i min movement,never happens when im sitting down. Only when i mwlaking or running.

And also i have begun to tihnk that maybe it has somethign to do with my jaw or some joints. Any help wpuld be appreciated.

Thank you.

Adam: Don't know if you have received any replies, but I'm going through the same thing, maybe by telling you what I am experiencing we can figure this out. The worst thing for me is that I can't determine exactly what causes it. Sometimes it's only when I'm walking, others it's only when I'm sitting, somedays it's constant, others it doesn't click at all. Originally I thought it might be fluid in my inner ear, because of the clicking when sitting and not when standing, but according to the doctor, it is most likely a muscle spasm in my inner ear. I didn't even know ears had muscles. The only solution I've been given is to have the muscle severed, which scares me to death. But let me tell you, somedays, I could sever the muscle myself I think because it DRIVES ME CRAZY. I can't sleep, concentrate, you name it. However I am 52 years old, so you are a great deal younger than I am. Honestly, I would rather be totally deaf in that ear than put up with it. Let me know how you're doing and if your symptoms change. I would appreciate any type of feedback because right now, jamming an icepick into my ear to stop it, is sounding very tempting. IT IS MAKING ME THAT NUTS.

Re: Is This TMJ??? What Can It Be???

I haven't seen a dentist Maughan, but have considered it. I don't experience any pain, just constant clicking. I also thought mine might be caused by fluid because I sleep on my right side always, and at one time it actually only clicked when I sat up after lying down, but then there are times when it has clicked only when lying down. Everything I have tried to do to stop it has failed. Everything I thought might be causing it I've stopped and the clicking has only continued and gotten worse. The muscle spasm thing fits better than anything else I've been told. Unfortunately the solution is to have the muscle severed and that does scare me. Honestly, the clicking now is constant and deafening and is starting to feel like torture. I can't sleep, hear, concentrate, think, I go from getting angry to crying, it's just the worst thing I've ever experienced. It's constant noise that I can't get away from or even relief from, like someone screaming into my ear ALL THE TIME. It seems like the more I try to ignore it, the louder it gets. The muscle severing thing is my only hope I guess. Right now, it scares me more to think of ramming my head through a wall or an icepick into my ear, than having the surgery. That's how desperate I feel sometimes. I have to do something because this is driving me crazy. I sympathize with you and anyone experiencing anything like this, whether it's ringing, buzzing, whatever. People just don't realize how paralyzing something like this is until they have it----I know I didn't.
