Tinnitus is more of a ringing in the ear - Sounds more like a circulation thing - the blood vessels in the ear are some of the thin-est in the body. - even a slight constriction will sound like a drum - you're likely hearing the sound of blood trying to get through after every heart beat. - My mom had carotid surgery for blockage, and before she did the noise in her ear was deafening - she said it was like rushing water - actually kept her from sleeping. - I'd see a Dr. - Just to be funny, you could try some aspirin or Tylenol (thinner, anti-coagulant) and see if there's a difference. - If there is, it's probably a circulatory thing. - an ultrasound will confirm, but a Dr. should be able to listen with a stethoscope and get an idea if you've got some pathways that are blocked. - Do get it checked. - Depending on your age and health, blockages can lead to stroke. - Hope it's nothing at all.

You may have a condition called Tinnitus.  Variously pronounced Tin I tus, or  Tin ee tus.  It can be caused by several things.  Among them are: insult or injury to hearing or certain drugs.  Aspirin will cause it on a temporary basis.  It can get very loud.  William Shatner (Captain Kirk) once head of the Tinnitus Foundation, complains of loud roaring in his ears.  It is annoying but no real threat.  I have it from time to time.  See a doctor for latest treatments.

Hi,\n\nHope You and family are fine.\n\nThere can 2 things.\n\n1. Tinnitus : Best described as an acoustic like feeling generated somewhere in the human body. Objective Tinnitus can be heard by the patient and the by the examiner.  It may be caused by spasms-like movement of the small bones in the middle ear, spontaneous movement of the soft palate and sometimes by sounds generated in the cochlea (where the hearing nerves are located.) Subjective tinnitus is best defined as an acoustic-like sensation that is heard only by the patient and not by anyone else. Its cause lies somewhere in the auditory system.\n\nBut it should be persistant, in Your case I its not persistent and only occur while You are walking then it may be SEISMIC EFFECT, That is walking itself produces a jarring motion that may create movement of the small bones or contractions muscles in the middle ear.\n\nIn order to test this hypothesis, consider doing the following: I) Walk slowly (with minimal jarring) and determine if the clicking sensation is present. 2) Then walk at your normal pace and determine if the clicking returns. 3) Move head up and down slowly and notice if the clicking is absent or present. 4). Then, vigorously, move your head up and down and determine if the clicking sound returns.\n\nAnother suggestion is to do the following: If you use hearing aids, take them off and then walk a brief distance and see if the clicking occurs. Put them on and follow the same procedure. If there is no clicking when the hearing aids are not worn, and it is present when they are, it is quite possible that the seismic effect is causing the problem. \n\nAt any rate, what you are describing does not appear to be a harbinger of something that should be of great concern. However, if it is a constant concern, by all means consult an ear specialist.\n\nA word of caution: Regardless of the cause of the perceived sound, even though it is benign, constant, negative attention to that sound can create emotional disturbance. If a medical examination finds no evidence of a physical or medical problem, then be assured the clicking sound offers no threat to the quality of life. \n\nHope that answers Your question.\n\nWarm regards,\n\nTanvir.

My son had this and it was from damage in his ear canal.  He is one who when he sneezes blocks his nose, the pressure of a cold and doing that made a "split" his ear canal.  When the blood and fluid trickled INTO his ear he decided to scratch it with an unknown object and made it worse.  Talk about ick. \nHe didnt even know there was a problem where usually this would send one into excruciating pain.  Odd.  \nThe MD gave him ear drops and a antibiotic, took about a week to hear normally again and is fine now.  If she is is major pain it could also be a ruptured ear drum. I hope not but, Good Luck.

Also try listening to really heavy DOOM metal bands slowed down. Try listening to a Neurosis EP on 33rpms...your brain may explode!

Try ear candles. You can get these at a health store. Make sure to use a container like an aluminum pie tin, sold at grocery stores, the disposable ones. Just cut out a hole big enough for the candle to fit through as it burns. Also you need another person for lighting the candle. You won't believe how good it feels to get your ears vacuumed out,, and what comes out, yuck.  My sister in law gave me these candles years back and my whole family lines up for it with anticipation once or twice a year. We probably don't do it often enough, though.   It feels great!! And won't damage your ears at all!! You do need two people for this though!

You may have developed what's known as hypersensitive hearing. Unless it really bothers you alot, don't worry, it will likely go away. Sometimes medications can cause it, or even some illnesses in various phases. I experience this once in awhile, actually when my medication is not working so well. It's annoying at times, but kind of neat at other times. I've learned to enjoy the cocophony of sounds that I can hear.

The left side worries me. It could be the medication. If it persists then go to urgent care.

Dear,I am also a sufferer from headaches and migaine.My strong advice find a really good neurologist to find the proper solution,by examining you scrupulously and to administer to you some really workable medication.As you share your experience I don't think your doctor give you the right "help"..As to your feeling of hearing some ringing in your ear it is a sign that you can have problems with your vestibular system..and that is cured with other medications..LUck and God bless you!!

Sounds like you need to talk to a doctor about this one...maybe if you go to a hospital ER they'll help you figure out the strange noises and and weird visitors.
