Could Constant Sinus Pressure In Head And Ringing Ear With Scan Being Normal Indicate TMJ?
I have had sinus pressure in my entire head and ringing in my left ear for months a Catscan showed nothing abnormal with my sinuses I have been treated with an antibiotic and a steroid with no relief. I have seen an ear nose and throat doctor also. If I massage my head my nose will eventually run. Could this be TMJ or a disc probllem in my neck? Also are there additional tests I should request be done?

Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,
I have gone through your query, as you have mentioned that you have pain in head and ear yes it can be due to TMD ie Temporomandibular disorder, for this you should consult dentist and get local examination done if needed go for TMJ sectional view ,
Hope this will help you.
Wishing you good health.
