Suggest Treatment For Pulsatile Tinnitus

Pulsatile tinnitus.
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM.
I have read your query and understand your concerns.
It is called pulsatile tinnitus, it may be related to blood flow disturbances of the head or neck vessels.
Sometimes is related to stress, but other possible causes include intracranial vascular lesions ( aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations ), middle ear effusions, atherosclerotic disease, etc.
In my opinion, there's necessity for a brain MRI with vascular protocol too ( MRA) to evaluate or exclude above mentioned possibilities, since high blood pressure is excluded.
Discuss with your husband's primary care Doctor first about these issues.
He can order tests and consultations in order to achieve a correct diagnosis.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Greetings.
