What Causes Pulsatile Tinnitus?

Hi doctor, I can hear my heart beat in my ear, sometiems it goes away, but mostly it just sticks in my head when I am in quite area. When it happens, I can feel my brain move same move as my heart beat sound in my ear. Sometimes, I stay awake in bed for 1-3 hours trying to sleep because of this. Could you please tell me what you think about this? Thank you!

Hi,

As per your complain you have problem of tinnitus and vertigo problem. Inner ear infection or typanic membrane problem cause this type of symptoms. Consult a ENT specialist for further diagnosis. Special investigation like otoscopy examination and history give exact idea about problems. Avoid loud music listening. Check your blood pressure and sugar levels also.

I hope my guidance helpful to you. Let me know if I can assist you further.
