Ringing, Tingling and Numbness in Right Ear

I am 31yrs old and I have had ringing in my ears for a very long time.  Sometimes it is louder than other times but it varies, it is not just at night or in the morning, it happens all the time.  In the last 4-6 months I have started having a crawling sensation in my right ear.  It only last about 30secs but it is very frequent.  It has never happened in my left ear at all.  About 2-3 months ago it also started having a numb feeling happen at times. It kinda feels like my ear is going to sleep and then it goes away.  It does not hurt, it just gets on my nerves.   My neck does feel tighter on the right more so than the left but thats it.  I use to have headaches everyday but I sartes going to a Chiropractor and that has stopped that.  Please help if you can!!!!

I just ran across your post and as a long time tinnitus sufferer I was wondering where to get Lipoflavanoid - is it available OTC and how much do I take?

I have the same symptoms you have, different kind of pitch noises some other day, and numbness in my left ear, and doctor does not know and recommend me to see a psiquiatrist. I am normal and good behave, but the noise is driving me crazy. I going to see a specialist in only ears is my next step.

Wish you luck in your search for cure.

Hi mary49er - Just a suggestion, but I would ask the ENT to do an MRI. Some of the symptoms that you are describing such as diminished hearing, loss of balance/dizziness and tinnitus could be many things, one of which is an Acoustic Neuroma. It is a slow growing, benign tumor that orginates from the hearing/balance nerves. I was diagnosed with an AN in 1998, had surgery and doing fine. The symptoms are very subtle and mimic many ear disorders, so diagnosis is often delayed. I was misdiagnosed for close to 2 years by several different doctors. You most likely don't have one, but never hurts to ask the doc on your next visit.

I am being checked for AN right now. Waiting on MRI results. What were all your symptoms and did you have surgery?  I had popping in right ear, ringing, and now ear numbness. The popping is off and on but not constant like the numbness and ringing.
