[|Human|] I have been experiencing a buzzing/humming sound in my left ear for the last 6 days. I saw an ENT and he felt it was due to middle ear pressure and recommended saline nasal spray and Allegra. My hearing test and ear pressure were normal and except for a small amount of wax in the ear it was otherwise normal. I have not noticed any improvement since starting the recommended medications. Just as a note I was earlier diagnosed with TMJ by my dentist and begun using a fabricated mouth guard. I also has soreness in the muscles be.ow the left side of my jaw. What do believe I need to do at this point? I thank you in advance for your response.
[|AI|]  Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query. The sound near the ear can be because of the disc displacement in the temporomandibular joint. Nothing to be panic, consult an oral physician and get it evaluated. You need to get an MRI done to confirm the diagnosis. You can continue to use the splints. For the soreness over the muscles, you can take an analgesic like ibuprofen with a muscle relaxant like chlorzoxazone(if you are not allergic). For the disc displacement of TMJ, you can take proximal. You can also give hot fomentation over the joints. Take soft diet. I hope I have answered your query. Take care
