thumping in right ear... comes and goes
For a while now I've had this weird thump, comes and goes. It's happening when I'm on the phone (read cellphone), listening with my right ear... each hard consonant sound I hear results in a thump I both hear and (sort of) feel, almost as if it's coming from the center of my skull. Pretty sure that means it's an inner ear thing. I can switch to the left ear, thump is gone... back to the right, thump is back. I can hear just fine in left and right, mostly the thump is distracting and a little worrisome. Can anybody help me make sense of this?
Thanks!
Thanks!
I have had the same problem or similar problem. My right ear was making a loud thumping noise and would wake me up in the morning. It was loud and irregular. The sound it made was like if you put your finger on the piece of skin just forward of the ear canal and push in and release. It makes a thumping sound. That is what I was hearing.
I finally figured out how to fix it today.
I was thinking it was caused by muscles around the ear and have tried acupressure on the muscles forward and below the ear. They were very tight but I got no relief. Today I tried inside the ear just aft of the ear canal.
There was a very tight muscle that felt as hard as a bone but with constant pressure for about 2 minutes it started to relax. And gone was the annoying thumping.
Hope this helps.

I am a Bluegrass musician, and i do hear lots of loud sounds, but about 3 days ago, i was in the studio and everytime i heard music my right ear would thump like a bass along with the beat, nearly driving me insane. I had to block the right ear off in order to finish my recording, this is annoying, very annoying, any suggestions on that???

This thread has been going on since 2009. Wow. I get the thumping in my right ear, too. It is always only in my right ear, and is intermittent. I've been experiencing this since I was in my twenties (I'm 47 now). I had my ears checked like so many here and of course all normal. Bad thing is, it seems to be getting worse with age. I notice that lack of sleep triggers it the most. If I don't feel rested, then it thumps with certain consonant sounds. It is the worst in the morning, and the TV is the most irritating, or sitting in meetings when other people talk. I've been all over the Internet trying to find an answer. What I've come up with is that, one, doctors don't know anything, and two, sinus problems seem to trigger it for most people. My sinuses drain a lot, so it makes sense that this is the main trigger for me, and my ear thumps when I'm not my usual perky self.
If you want to attach spirituality to a hearing problem, go ahead. But to me this is purely physiological. A healthy lifestyle (which includes inner peace and stress management) might help keep the thumping at bay, but praying or meditating won't do crap unless it helps you get a good night's sleep.

I dont know where you get that the beating sounds is a spiritual thing. Our Guides and Protectors comunicate fine with us without making anoying sounds or ataking us. They Protect us. If our ears rings or beat, whatever we just need to see a Doctor or live with it. So.... you are not going to crack any code. For Any negativeness our guides are going to take care of it and any health problem the Doctor will work on it.
Well I am not sure what your definition of spirit is but I sure agree your body is trying to tell you something.
I get the thumping 3x TE heartbeat rate in my right ear after I drink alcohol. I have been drinking moderately heavily for decades and if I drink more than half a bottle of wine the thumping starts. If I drink less then nothing.
Maybe my body is telling me to stop drinking so much. I have no excuse except to listen ..... Thump thump thump.
