I am 17 years old and have pulsatile tinnitus. I have only been noticing the sensation and noise in my left ear for a few months now, and have gone to the ENT about it. I got two MRI’s for my brain and arteries, with and without contrast. All is supposedly fine, no problems.
The doctors say I have it because I have moderate hearing loss.
Anyway, for the past month or so I have been getting headaches that come and go. They’re not unbearable, just bothersome. However, now I have been experiencing very sharp pains to my head, usually in the occipital (base / back of the skull) region along in my temporal region (side of head, temples). They occur suddenly and last for about 3 to 10 seconds; it feels as if someone is jamming a knife into my head. This has occurred in my left ear also.
My ENT said I probably will get pain and weird feelings in my ear, but I don’t think she said anything like this. Not sharp pain in my head.
Should I go to the doctor again? Does anybody else have pulsatile tinnitus, with or without these sensations?
Please help.

I have recently been treated for Bronchitus and sinus infection. I am getting better but am having a real hard time hearing due to head conjestion. I have tried musinex, sudafed, etc. Any body have any ideas how to clear my head so I can hear?

I listen to my headphones too loud and I know that, I’ve been trying to cut back on the volume, but I want to know if there’s anything I can do to make my hearing better?

Think it’s possible?

I just acquired tinnitus earlier this year. I believe it is the result of a month long ear blockage I had in January. The ringing is in the center of my head and it is maddening when it is quiet. Sometimes my head feels full, like inner ear fluid or something. My question is, if I find out what is causing the full feeling, and it is something that may be able to be drained or fixed somehow, is there a good chance the tinnitus will go away? I just keep fearing that the tinnitus is here to stay no matter what!
