I am having a problem with sinus congestion, allergies, etc and today I woke up feeling not so well..dizzy and sore throat.later I got a fluttering sensation in my bad ear. It made me feel dizzy. It felt like butterflies wre flapping around in my ear. This is something new..and I hope not bad.
I have had that feeling of a tiny muscle spasm in the ear. It went away with everything else with antivirals.
It was something i heard , almost like a fast pulse, it made me feel dizzy, now that ear seems congested.
does it sound like Pulsatile tinnitus http://www.dizziness-and-balance.com/disorders/hearing/tinnitus/pulsatile.html In pulsatile tinnitus, people hear something resembling their heartbeat in their ear. •Pulsatile tinnitus is usually due to a small blood vessel that is coupled by fluid to your ear drum. It is usually nothing serious and also untreatable. •Rarely pulsatile tinnitus can be caused by more serious problems -- aneurysms, increased pressure in the head (hydrocephalus), and hardening of the arteries. A vascular tumor such as a "glomus" may fill the middle ear, or a vein similar to a varicose vein may make enough noise to be heard. •Inner ear disorders that increase hearing sensitivity (such as SCD) can cause pulsatile tinnitus. As this condition can be corrected surgically, it is one of the few "fixable" causses of pulsatile tinnitus. •There are some very large blood vessels -- the carotid artery and the jugular vein -- that are very close to the inner ear (see diagram above). Noise in those blood vessels can be conducted into the inner ear. Accordingly, other possibilities for vascular tinnitus include dehiscence (missing bone) of the jugular bulb -- an area in the skull which contains the jugular vein, and an aberrantly located carotid artery. An enlarged jugular bulb on the involved side is common in persons with venous type pulsatile tinnitus. •Anything that increases blood flow or turbulence such as hyperthyroidism, low blood viscosity (e.g. anemia), or tortuous blood vessels may cause pulsatile tinnitus.
