Tinnitus: Tinnitus is usually caused by imbalance in the fluid of your labyrinthine gland. If you have seen ENT there is unlikely significant structural problem. Could be endocrine- thyroid or environmental. Cell phone or excessive computer use has been associated with tinnitus. However, your chiropractor is right cervical neck problems and TMJ can be associated with tinnitus too.
