It may not physically be a life-threatening issue, but living with it day today and trying to sleep at night can be absolutely maddening. It’s a cause of lots of a depression and anxiety. It’s very upsetting to have it just brushed off.

You know, it's not even the silence that i miss at this point, i just genuinely miss life without constantly thinking of the ringing and being scared of loud noises. I can't enjoy simple basic things anymore because I'm constantly making sure my ears are safe so they won't get even more damaged

I pray to all the people heal with this soon.... Sending prayers to u all... Meditate n focus on breath🙏chant the name of the lord it will heal.... Dont focus on your ear

I used to hear the sound of thumping heartbeat during exertion and stress, and sometimes the sound of rushing blood. After treatment for anxiety from a natural health practitioner, both went away after at least a year.

Mine started 10+yrs ago. It began by listening to music loud on my headphones. Perhaps air pushed into the ears & started it (idk) .But it returned recently. What I do is put a cottonball and do my best to relax & rest & open my sinuses to breath better & eat better. Possible triggering factors: Headphones (stop this asap) , lack of sleep, smoking cigarettes & eating bad food that upsets the stomach/digestion system. Good luck to you all. You are not alone! Feel free to comment other techniques or causes. Good luck guys, God bless

This just happened to me yesterday, i didnt tell my guardians. But today i did. I asked my mom at midnight that my right ears are bumping or ringing like my heartbeat, cuz I couldn't sleep at all. My mom asked for some help on the internet. Is not serious but i just can't stand this sound at all! Is very annoying. I couldn't even sleep. My mom said the reason was because of how i always touch my ears. So if you didnt have this problem yet. I tell you, dont touch inside your ears too much. Or touch it too hard. Your ear isnt going to feel pain but still. Is not barrable for teens and including myself as a teen. After you shower make sure to unwet your ears, you have to dry your ears, every time you shower. Pls do it. Is really not a serious problem but it might cause you of losing sleep. Pls be aware of this! Stay safe! 🌟🌟🌟

I’m 24 now & developed this back in November 2019. I just woke up to it & thought maybe water got in my ear. Got antibiotics, then got an MRI/MRA & nothing. I come across this Dr. I’ve heard about named Doctor.P located in New York who has diagnosed many people & have also, cured them of it. I typically hear many people on a FB group page say it’s due to IIH, some type of stenosis, & other issues. I think the most bothersome issue with this is not having an answer. I still need to rule out my neck. If I knew for a fact it wasn’t life threatening I would suck it up & ignore it. But, knowing there is a possibility it could be something causes my anxiety to go through the roof if I think about it enough.

I remember being able to hear my heartbeat in my ears as a young child while trying to sleep at night. As an older adult I have severe tinnitus in both ears and partial sudden-onset hearing loss in my left ear that started in the Summer of 2011. I can't do anything about it so I refuse to focus on it. I sleep with a fan on or an AM radio tuned to a quiet spot on the dial so I can only hear the rushing sound (white noise). It helps a lot. 😊

When I mentioned this to a Dr I once had instead of brushing me off thinking I was just ignorant I wish she would have explained this to me. I’ve always thought it was my HBP or CHF issues, this video helped .

I have had pulsatile tinnitus for over 6 years now. I have an AVM fistula,one of the largest three neurosurgeons that consulted together on my condition had seen. I also was diagnosed with a glomus tumor as well. I have had 5 embolizations over that time, but none have helped. The last one I went through with approximately 3 years ago ended up having a complication that caused paralysis to my right vocal cord, right swallowing muscle and right soft palate. I had no voice for over 4 months and had to go to speech therapy to get what I have now back. It's now worse than it's ever been. The pulsing is obviously constant, but the sound has increased in volume within the last 6 months. I also feel the sensation of the pulsing, as well as the pain and constant headaches from the ballooning vessels of the fistula. People who don't have this just don't have an idea how debilitating this is. Getting through the day is tough enough, dealing with work and trying to do anything productive even more difficult.

My father has been dealing/ suffering with hearing his heart bear non-stop for 10 years now. I don’t know how he keeps going as it has to be maddening! I found a doctor in NY recently that seems to specialize in PT and planning to set an appointment very soon to see if my father can be treated. The name of the place is Weil cornell brain and spine institute- just wanted to pass this along to others. 🙏 hoping everyone finds peace

Mine started a few years ago. I started having double vision, visual disturbances, intermittent sudden onset of blindness(would last 10-30 second), dizziness and this form of tinnitus. I was eventually diagnosed with Intracranial Hypertension. Started on medication which helped a ton. The meds had some serious side effects so I had to stop but it worked. Took several neurologist and finally a vascular neurosurgeon listened to me and did a lumbar puncture which should a high pressure around my brain. So frustrating that all those years went by and I was told I was depressed and had anxiety.

I learned this in sixth grade anatomy. There are tiny hairs in the cochlea that get stimulated with sound. That stimulation then goes to the brain. I have tinnitus predominantly in my left ear. In 1995 as an adult, I got mononucleosis, and for a year and a half was plagued with one infection after another, one of which went into my ears. What happened to me is that I had liquid mucus buildup behind my eardrum. To an ENT doctor, my eardrum felt like a brick wall. There was no motion. And, in the middle of my infection, I could not hear out of that ear at all. He ended up piercing my eardrum to drain the build up of mucus. Later, another ENT blew a white powder with a straw into the hole created by the eardrum piercing, and voila -- he cured the infection. Later they remove the little plastic tube that they put in my eardrum for drainage. He told me that the eardrum would seal itself and I suppose it did. Now what I’m left with is a bunch of dried fluid around a certain few hairs inside my cochlea, which prevent those particular hairs from being able to receive certain pitches. Additionally, they are gooped down with dry mucus, which causes the tinnitus. My cochlea needs cleaning. But how does one clean inside a cochlea? This will cure tinnitus and if you can figure out how to clean it, then you will have a cure for tinnitus.

I was scared when I first got this 2 nights ago, I couldn’t sleep but I thought maybe its just a one time thing. The next night I had it again, I laid in bed for 2 hours trying to sleep until I snapped. I looked up what it was and it didn’t seem very promising. I saw someone in the comments say this could also be related to and infection of the ear or sinus. I knew that was it because the first time I got this feeling in my ear was also the first day of my cold. I cleaned out my right ear with olive oil and water from a syringe at 2 at night and I found some strong nose spray my mom uses. About an hour later I finally gain the confidence to lay down again and I prayed for it to work. And it worked! I was super relieved. So if you’ve only just been experiencing this, try cleaning out your sinus and your ears first.

I have this and ear drops have helped me tremendously!!! The ear drops are called oido Sano from Mexico. The ear drops have aloe in it and use it 2x a day everyday until it goes away!

I have a resent pulsatile tinnitus like about 3 years and I want to attend a concert, definitely I need to attend with protection to my ears,but I'm concerned if being exposed to that level of noise could make worse the pulsatile tinnitus,does anyone here have experience a similar situation?

I just started having this in October. It started with dizziness then it went away, I did catch a cold but now it’s almost like my right ear drum is popping in out fast for a few seconds. I went to an urgent care and said I had negative pressure and little bit of fluid in my ear. Told me to use allergy medicine. Didn’t believe them. So now after it comes and goes throughout the day I’m finally seeing a ENT to see what’s going on.

I pray for all my brothers and sisters🫶 I💜you!

It started with me yesterday at night and today im laying on my bed trying to figure out whats this and seeing some comments saying they been having this for 10 years made me wanna cry i dont know how i will be able to live like that

If you have this, please go to a doctor. Pulsatile tinnitus may appear without reason, but also it can suggest that is something wrong in your body. I have pulsatile tinnitus for about 3 weeks and I did all the tests (MRI, MRA and ultrasound of carotid arteries ) and they did not show anything bad. After excluding all the possibilities, my neurologist told me that it is possible to be from a bad position of the cervical column because my life is sedentary and I sit on a chair for about 8h a day.

I’ve had all the tests MRI, CT, ultrasound all clear, which is great except no relief. Just ignore, said my ENT, put on some white noise. I also have Hyperacusis, a reduced tolerance to sound. I miss silence, I don’t like the sound of a fan. I have to have other so loud to block the pulsating, I can’t sleep. I feel like this is a means of torture 😞

I have pulsatile tinnitus and I put a folded sheet under my pillow and a hand towel inside the pillow case I find this helps .It really is a distressing condition and can only be understood if you have it . The best advice I read is you have to accept your tinnitus even although it is an uninvited guest .

If you live with this daily i believe faith in Christ, prayer and deliverance will take it away..

Its like a thumping but whoosing at the same time, thump thump. And I can feel it and hear it. To be honest its making me cry...who knows...

I have been going through this for a year now 😭😭😭😭

I got Pulsatile Tinitus right after my first Pfizer covid vaccine last March 2021. I still have it. I've been to many specialists inlcuding 2 neuro surgeons. All my scans are ok. the doctors thought it would go away in time. But here I am a year later. I had no other issues with my ears until I recieved the vaccine. I do believe in vaccines. I was going to get all of them but not now. Not after this has happened to me. It just doesn't stop. Since then I have high blood pressure, anxiety and depression. Its all under control now but my ears won't stop. Especially the left ear. I just want quiet. I miss it. just thought I would talk about it here. Praying for anyone that has this. It's horrible.

Mine started 2 years ago. Doctor insisted I take Lexapro for trauma/stress. (lost parents to virus). Since then I have Tinnitus, swooshing and clicking. 24/7. It is horrible, Doc say not related, they just brush you off. Nothing helps. Really ready for this to end.

I have a high jugular bulb and they think that's the cause of my pulstile tinnitus. I had a MRA done to prove this. It comes and goes. Last time I had it was 3 years ago but I'm currently dealing with it now. I did notice that this time I had a cough with phlegm, nose congestion and a full ear. I'm wondering if the fluid behind the ear is pushing up against the jugular bulb causing the whooshing sound

I woke up with this whooshing sound in my ear, I looked it up, and did some relaxing breathing techniques, mine surprising went away for now. I have been drinking a lot of coffee and I think high blood pressure may be the culprit for me, if it happens again I’ll probably just go to the doctor to see if they can diagnose me. I know I do have high blood pressure and that was one of the causes to pulsatile tinnitus.

what about pulsatile tinnitus that is approx. double the heart rate (based on radial a. measurement) and is only appreciated post-alcohol ingestion. Vasodilation-related? Any clues? Real case.

I’ve heard that it could simply be a potasium deficiency, also causes arithmetic issues, a flutter of the heart, irregular heartbeat.

I've had this going on for about 4 months now. Thought someone in my neighborhood was having a party. Then my ear started feeling full and started to hurt. Went to urgent care and was told I had an ear infection and was put on antibiotics. Then saw my regular doctor who saw nothing. Then saw my allergy doctor who said I had a lot of fluid in my ear. I've been trying to get in to an ENT but everyone booked out several months. Was told I needed a hearing test first which showed no problems. Can't sleep and feel like I'm losing my mind. What do I do?

Mine started rather suddenly about a month ago in left ear. Have recently started blood pressure medication, so not sure if it's related or not. I only get relief if i apply pressure to left side of neck, or if i turn my head to the left.

Am I having this thing? The whoosh feeling-whooshing like a heartbeat. It RARELY happens. But when it happens, it is when I woke up from a nap/sleeping. After the whoosh feeling gone, I'm awake, and I feel like kinda energetic.

I'm a paranoid child so everytime I'm anxious or stress i can hear it, is it normal while having stress?

If its caused by hearing loss, why can you hear it..

After suffering with debilitating pulsatile tinnitus for nearly a year & a half & being completely dismissed by ENT as “you’re completely fine”, I thought I was losing my mind (and was basically being treated as if I were overreacting). The noise was so loud, like a loud helicopter that had taken over the right side of my brain- it felt like the noise had taken over half of my head!! I could only hear (the outside world) out of my left ear. I couldn’t sleep & was depressed because ENT treated me as if I was crazy (they did CT & MRI and said they were normal). Finally saw a neurosurgeon who suspected a fistula, so she did a cerebral angiogram. It ended up not being a fistula, but transverse sinus stenosis. She tried a balloon angioplasty that didn’t work & now I have 2 stents. Eventually diagnosed with Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension.

I can hear my heartbeat very loud in my left ear and in my right ear a high pitch noise and one day my left ear went completely deaf for a couple days and cured randomly pls help

I've gotten it about 3 times, and each time it starts it lasts 1 month, but it would start right after an extreme stress situation, like someone I'm caring for having a very bad fall and being unable to get up, and I have to handle the situation alone. Same for the first two occurrences. I have very low LDL cholesterol at a 7 year vegan, so it's not plaque in my case. Regardless I'll go to an ENT and get it checked sometime, thank you.

Mine is intermittent and only in the left ear. It pauses when I manipulate the inner ear canal. My left ear has ringing tinnitus from hydro-pneumatic trauma and a structural defect (MRI). The constant ringing doesn't bother me. The pulsatile occurs in the left ear usually after cleaning my ears or additional minor trauma.

I have this! Its been going on for over a year now, only the right ear. I hate it!

I only get it when I lay down, sometimes it helps to open my mouth widely and if not I stock up on pillows and try to sleep like that. I dont think it will ever go away.

I keep hearing a swosshing noice and I hear my heart beat in my ear when I either run

I have something like this but I’m curious if you can feel the pulse on the skin or if it’s a problem that you hear and can’t feel

It's their any solution for this doc? Pls do something 😣

Whenever I yawn, even when I yawn on purpose, the "swooshing sound" goes away.

Doctor , would you say in most cases PT cause can’t be found ? Can PT happen because of stressful period in life ?

I'm thankful for the lighter days in which I don't pay much attention to it..

I've had ear issues all my life, I can hear my heartbeat, ringing, or humming sometime sit sounds like the inside of a computer. But when I yawn, swallow, or even chew my ears pop and it makes it sound stuffy, then I have to plug my nose and suck in for it to go away. Doctors don't know why, they say the tube that connects my nose a ear is the issue but I want to know if others have it like me

I have a pulsating whoosing sound in my right ear. I do have a Pineal cyst in my brain too. I feel gaslighted by my doctors

Just gave my blood test for iron, ferritin , CBC test, vitamin d and more. I experience PT whenever I stand up from a sitting position. Also, I can hear it pretty loud when I'm moving around a lot or when I'm exercising. It lasts for about 10-15 when I stand up from a sitting position. But it remains loud and constant during exercise. After exercise, it fades away. PT doesn't affect my sleep as I don't hear it at that time. But normal tinnitus does. I can hear a high pitched ringing sound in my ears. This makes it hard to sleep. I have been suffering from PT for about 2 months. Normal tinnitus just started a week ago. Also, along with PT and normal tinnitus, I experience dizziness and lightheadedness (blackout) when I stand up from a sitting position. I occasionally experice slight chest pain ( once or twice a week) . I experience heart palpitations as well. I explained all thse symptoms to the doctor and got my bp checked. Turns out, it was low. 118/64. Diastolic bp was low. She suggested I might have anemia as most of the symptoms were related to it. Anyways, I gave my blood test. Will update yall soon

I get this when I stand up, laugh, move my head and I feel dizzy and I get a migraine after. I've seen a neurologist and he said I'm fine. It's getting worse

I have it too. I thought my arteries or blood vessels were clogged up. I had started this issue 2 yrs ago. It's been gone 1 yr, now, it's back.

All of my Doctors are at Lexington Medical & I’m having trouble with this day and day out it’s mind bothering bc something if it’s a lot going on at the same time I cannot hear out of my right ear Lord Jesus I gotta make me appointment but this too shall pass♥️🙌🏽🙌🏽

I suggest looking into a neurosurgeon to see if a AVM is the reason why the pulsatile tinnitus is there. Good luck everyone

Looked up this video because i was hearing and feeling a very obvious throbbing in my right ear that was in sync with my pulse. I was eating a sandwhich when watching the video, and when i was done eating it the sound was gone. Saved on medical bills!

Was brushed off, but had MRA which showed a blood clot and fistula. Getting angiogram next.

Im 12 years old but i got this problem.

I have middle ear myoclonus - which causes several symptoms one of them being pulsatile tinnitus but it’s more than just a sound I hear it’s physical movement of my stapedius and tensor tympani muscles so Im getting tenotomy of the muscles in January finally lived with it for years and I’m over it, as long as my pulsing goes which surgery will fix I’ll be very happy

Mine started when I was about 14 yrs old ang I am 37 yrs old now. It’s like I can hear my blood swooshing on my vein going to my head especially when I get up, or having a bad headache. Should I be worried?

Started feeling this Friday night need to get a check up ASAP

Sir ...40days back i was tested as covid positive.. i lost smell ...from that day ...iam able to hear my heartbeat in my right ear ...the nerve which goes from ear to forehead eye on right side is beating..only right side ...iam able to hear that sound ....iam very much disturb with this ....mostly iam facing this problem only in day time ...that too when I woke up.....very problematic sir... Pls help me sir ...... Thank u

Last week i got pulsatile tinnitus. The doctor said my ear nerve got damaged because long usage of earbuds,, since then i never use earbud at all and suddenly my pulsatile was gone. I know this good thing and i should be grateful, but is there side effect of this? kinda scared me when the doctor said sound will never disappeared but it suddenly disappeared

my grandfather was deaf in one ear, i found this out when in my teens, i asked him if he could borrow me 5 dollars, he said son come around this side that ear is deaf, i said grandfather can you borrow me 10 dollars, he said get back on the 5 dollar side.

i have druming sound on my left ear 😞😟☹️

Have been going through this for almost six months ...😪😪😪my left ear having alot of pressure coming out it really does suck I need some help

I only hear mine when I exercise and I can feel a heartbeat in my groin above the lymph nodes when I exercise too?

I have this, but it's been off and on for the last five months. So, I don't even know if I should bother getting it checked out or not?

I've been hearing my heartbeat in my left ear for a year now. I went through MR Angiogram and MR Venogram. It says that I have a vascular loop in a cerebellopontine angle. My ENT doctor said that it's not life threatening and that it would go away. I'm sure it wouldn't because it's been a year and it still exists. I can't find it anywhere on the web and I'm at a desperate stage right now. Can you please tell me if there's a fix, any kind of treatment for this ? I would be really grateful.

I had ringing for about a year.. just now I found out I have plaque in the carotid arteries.. one has extra pressure... so my cardiologist found it!! I still see ent doc in a month.. cool, so see your cardiologist, ok 👍

I'm waiting to see the ENT ..iv had the whooshing heart beat sound in my right ear ever since having the vaccines..I know the ENT are just going to say live with it like most of the doctors say..so at night it's so iv started to fall asleep with earphones in my ears listening to meditation sleep music..it helps alot I don't hear the whooshing pulse sound at all with earphones in..during the day I'm busy so the sound I can handle..just so annoying 🙄

What kind of Doctor did you say needs to check to make sure nothing serious is going on? I couldn't understand what type of doctor you said. Mine came out of nowhere and I'm having nerve headaches dizziness and fullness in ears with this so I need to find out the cause

I have been hearing my heartbeat in my right ear for 6 years! I've had MRI and ct scans, but nothing showed up. But I have noticed that whenever I compress the right side of my neck, the sound stops temporarily.

I suffer with pulsating tinnitus and also ringing in my ears It has impacted so badly on my life Still waiting months later after initial call from ent dr It’s literally driving me crazy

Which doctor should I see for tinitinus

I've had this for 13 years now

Ugh it pulsates so much I can hear how my ear presses more against the pillow

This just started today

Please help me, I don’t know what is my problem, I just hear the noise under loud voices, it’s 2 years now, it’s appeared after me having GBS. sometimes when my father speaks I close my left ear because of his voice, when I turned this videos volume up, I couldn’t continue for 5 seconds, it’s not my heart beats, it’s the voices it self, what is that?

Oh my God ,it legit stopped when I was half way into the vid 😭 it's 4 am and I couldn't sleep all night

I wouldn't mind mine, except it also HURTS!

I have a pulsatine tinnitus since 1 year but somedays I feels like my body is also shaking with it. Sometimes in back or legs or hips. Is this also happens with you.

I usually hear heart beats in my left ear and only my left ear, it happens when I try to watch a KZfaq video and the person talking has a quite loud voice, even if I lower my volume it doesn’t help.

This happens to me specifically at night I hate it so much tossing and turning trying to find a comfortable position on my pillow

Hi, i need help, i have Tensor Timpani Sindrome and it is affecting my sleep, is very disturbing i can't get rid of it, i hear it almost all time, what can I do?

I constantly hear like a whooshing sound in my ear and it keeps me up most nights I've had hearing problems since birth but this has been cropping up the past few years

I have been going through this since 2019 visited my doctor bought a lot of medicines 💊 and till beating like drum😪

I’ve never had an issue with this until it’s been causing sleeping problems just about a week ago

What if it’s a rapid flapping sound? Like as of theres a flying bug trying to fly out-? Bc that’s how it is for me- Now, I’ve always had ear issues.. ever since I was born- But I’ve never had anything like what I have now. I don’t know what to do

i Get these Heartbeat sounds from my throat Happens very Rarely But when it dose it really weird

I can’t hear the specialist you mention ?

I’ve been having a thumping noise for the past three weeks and it normally happens when I burp or I yawn it’ll start thumping and then it goes away. It’s almost like a nerve inside my ear.

Thank you for this information.

Does it go away? Is there a way to cure It??

I get this very briefly after a long day at work. Seems to be on days I am not very welll hydrated. Mentioned it to my doc and she feels it’s dehydration

I have pulsitile tinnitus now and I also have a head cold and an earache in my left ear . Does this happen from the head cold or could it be a greater issue?

Just found this. It's a horrible thing to have. I've been to an ENT and all he gave me were saline solutions and said its probably my sinuses. It didn't help. I find that when I'm stressed or have too much caffeine, it triggers it. I can't afford an mri. I just want the theobbing to stop.

Mines comes on more when I’ve drank alcohol the night before and I’m in the early morning waking up abs feeling a little hungover. Is this an alcohol problem ? I’m quite a heavy drinker. Im25

This just happened suddenly when I was laying in a weird position on my bed and when I sat up it went away, I think it only happens for me when my head is in a certain position. Is that bad?

I hear the throbbing in my ears and at the back of my head after i had sever vertigo 2 weeks prior. It's scary that it might be something serious. I'm on;y 28. I goes away when i tried to massage my head. Am I dying?
