A member asked:

Will a tympanometry&audio testing show objective tinnitus/muscular/ fluid in the ear or etd? i have bilateral subjective tinnitus, but developed an audible loud pop where people can hear when moving certain ways&eating at times.also have other sounds?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Tympanogram will reveal ear drum impedance, e.g. mobility. if limited mobility, could indicate middle fluid, ET dysfunction or ossicular disorder. An audiologist can do tinnitus matching. Audiogram and/or tympanogram will reveal cause of objective tinnitus. Objective tinnitus can come from the jaw joint, cervical spine, intracranial vascular anomalies, palatal myoclonus. middle ear vascular lesion
