Most important! See your doctor first.
If no cause can be found after various tests have been performed,
then it is most likely due to MUSCLE TENSION.
Please see a massage therapist - trusted chiropractor, physiotherapist, aroma therapist etc.
See if there is tension in your body. Ask questions of the therapist.
Where is the tension?
What can I do about it etc?
Then ask your self: What am I doing during the day that could be causing this?
Do you clamp a phone in your neck? - get a headset.
Are you sitting badly? - improve your posture.
Is your computer positioned correctly?
Is the monitor at eye level - no peering up or down.
Is the keyboard roughly at your waist level?
Is your chair comfortable? no slouching.
Do you drive a lot? see travel tips

Tinnitus Relief self help
I had a brief episode some years ago. I had become aware of muscular tension by this time, so I got rid of it as soon as I could.
I had been a passenger in a a car on a long trip. After driving for 2 whole days I began to feel as if an iron band had grown around my chest. When I bent down to pick something up off the floor the PT kicked in.
My seating position had not been what it normally is when I am the driver. I usually have a cushion in my back and sit up straight. Because I was a passenger I thought this was not so important. But I was wrong.
I put the cushion back and sat upright for the next week. The PT went.
