Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
What you hear is blood rushing in your ears.
The carotid artery passes about 1/8th inch behind the ear drum. Normally one does not hear blood flowing through it. However some people hear it without any cause.
The other possibility is that you have a high blood pressure so you hear the blood being pumped against great force.
The third possibility is that either there is a narrowing of carotid artery or a clot causing blood to push against great force.
A carotid angiogram or Doppler is a must for confirmed diagnosis. Treatment is by stents or medicines.
Also since putting pressure on the artery helps, this goes more in favor of the noise that you hear to be due to blood flowing in the carotid artery maybe against high pressure.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
