I find this helps with some relief. Block off the nostril on the side where the cracking is occurring with a cotton ball or tissue or small piece of tape. Breathe and blow your nose only through the open side for a few hours. In the beginning I only had to do this a couple of times a day. Do as often as necessary for your personal needs.
View 1 RepliesI'm 31 male. Yesterday I went to a Physical Therapist for TMJ treatment. The therapist was massaging my jaw and then moved to my neck to massage that. Without warning he forcefully cranked my neck to the left and it popped really loud three times.
I got upset with him and told him ever to do that again that he wasn't a chiropractor and he responded that he knew chiropractor movements. I've never been to a chiropractor by the way.
Ever since then whenever I walk I hear a loud crackling, like pop rocks sound in my lower neck, right above my shoulders. I don't have pain, though my neck is somewhat stiff now. The sound isn't present when moving the neck at all, left, right, up or down. Just when walking.
Did he do permanent damage to my neck? Should I seek treatment? What type of doctor should I see? Will the crackling go away or am I stuck with this forever and soon my neck will start to become very painful? I'm freaking out over this and need to know a solution.
I recently went to the doctor with a bad cough, slight fever and coughing up green mucus a lot. I was told my lungs sounded clear (4 days ago) and I have no chest pain, but the doctor gave me antibiotics just "in case" my symptoms worsened over Christmas. A new symptom I have noticed now is, when I exhale, sometimes I get this strange crackling or bubbling noise. Does anyone think it's a good idea to take my antibiotics before seeing my doctor again as I have to wait over the weekend for them to open again?
I am just worried that Penicillin may be harmful to take for something that might not be bacterial, even though I am getting this strange crackling sound and severe cough?
I am 43 for several days I have been having serious pain the right side of my chest when I breathe on a scale of 1 to 10 it is definitely a good 9....when I lay on my back there is a crackling sound and lots of pain when I breathe..if I laugh or hiccup awful...coughing is excruciating...and I been having migraines only on the opposite side of my head(left side) don't know if they are connected but I never get migraines I've had about four in last two weeks
View 1 RepliesDoes anyone else get a crackling sound when you breath in at night in bed? I had an endoscopy on tuesday and all that was found was gastritis and was given a leaflet on gerd/acid reflux. I have a constant back/shoulder/neck discomfort and i am worrying it's my lung now. I am having an abdominal ultrasound on saturday to check my gallbladder.
View 7 RepliesI went to physical therapy for TMJ 4 days ago, I'm 31 years old. While massaging my jaw the physical therapist went on to my neck, and without me knowing out of nowhere cranked my neck super hard and it popped 3 times on the left side. My neck has been stiff on the left ever since with some pain and when I walk I hear loud clicking crackling/pop rocks sounds in my neck right before it meets the shoulders. Did he injure me? anyone else experience this? will it go away.
I was so upset he cracked my neck like that he isn't even a chiropractor but said afterwards when I got upset with him that he knows chiropractor movements.
I've never been to a chiropractor so I don't know how it compares but it seems really hard and forceful when he did it. Its weird that when I move my neck I don't hear the sound, only when walking. Someone please advise me on this.
Also what type of doctor should I see for this issue, i'm going to schedule an appointment tomorrow, but don't know the type of doctor who would be best. My GP just gave me ibuprofen and said it should go away on it's own.
I was fine until I developed a lovely head cold/sore throat/chest congestion. The sore throat went away, the nose clogged up, the ears clogged up, the chest congestion started. The nose slowly unclogged, but the left ear won't pop. Doctor said nothing is wrong according to a hearing test. said pressure is the same in both ears. How can he tell if he doesn't look??? Just by the hearing test? I don't get it.
View 3 RepliesI got a bad cold several months ago and developed fluid in both of my ears. My ears felt clogged and they crackled. some of the clogged sensation went away, but the crackling remains. I went to the doctor and they found a little fluid, so I was given a steroid shot but didn't work. The crackling drivers me crazy. What can I do?
View 4 RepliesSeveral times a day in the last week, I have experienced a slight crackling noise in my left ear and straight away felt dizzy as if I'm going to faint. Can anyone tell me what it could be.
View 4 RepliesI have been having a weird crackling noise in my left ear. It seems to come back when I wake up in the morning. Then it either fades away entirely later on or only gets triggered when I hear sounds (i.e. music, shutting doors, any noise).
I have been to the doctors and she looked into my ear, there was nothing wrong with it. I haven't been having any sinus problem. I have also cleaned my ear with a product called "Audiclean".
I think I have been experiencing what I believe are sinus issues for almost a year. I have been to two ENT's and they put the flexi camera up my nose, advised a slight deviated septum and gave nasal drops.
I also had a CT scan was they said was clear, slight inflammation on the right sinus, but other than than cleat. My nose is rarely blocked but I have terrible crackling, popping behind my nose and it even seems to be above my palate. I get phlegm/mucus at the back of my throat, often lumps of it, but not down my nose.
I have a constant pain up my right nostril.
The popping and crackling appears to be getting worse, almost a bone crunching sound. I often feel a painful pressure behind my nose or at the side of it, and then a horrible sensation of movement to relieve the pressure.
I get headaches above my right eye and often feel like I have been hit on the right side of my nose. The cracking noises come from both sides of my nose.
I am now also experiencing tooth and gum ache, and woke last night to popping sounds in my mouth, almost above my palate, but cannot be sure.
My ears frequently feel full too. As I previously mentioned my nose is never blocked, and its not full of mucus, so in that respect I do not feel bunged up!
I dont know where to go from here, ENT told me there was nothing more he could do on the results of my CT scan.
I recently had a cold, with some sinus issues, first time ever and I'm 36, not allergic to anything. The sinus has now cleared, 95%, still have some yellow mucus coming out when I blow my nose, but only on right side and not as much as yesterday or day before, but left with an ear that is half deaf and crackles when it hears a lot of noises at once (crackles or sounds like a waterfall, difficult to explain). Can hear fine with my left ear.There's also some ringing in the ear. Slight. Is this something that will clear up with time or do I need to see a doctor? I did finish my antibiotics this morning.I can also say that I'm a bit off balance, I won't say dizzy or vertigo, just half off balance when I walk. Not enough to fall over.Thanks in advance
View 2 RepliesJust over 2 months ago, a whooshing sound began in my left ear and it has been there ever since. It is much worse when I'm in a quiet room. I've now seen a consultant who thinks it's related to my pulse rate. He sent me for an MRI scan. I'm now awaiting the results. Has anyone else suffered with this and if so how was it cured, if it ever was?
View 1 RepliesI have noticed it before. It usually happens when I have watched porn or something that makes me have a big load.
Just as I have the first ejaculation, there is a discomforting pop in my stomach, just above the penis, like 3cm above and 3cm to the left of my shaft.
Is this normal? Where could the sound originate from?
I have noticed when i am in bed at night i can hear a crackling noise when i breath. Anyone else?
View 8 RepliesThis has been happening for a year now. This ONLY happens when I am sleeping or laying down which is the same thing. When I go to sleep, one of my ears will make a crackling, popping sound. It will continue to make sounds until I get up. When I am awake and up, it doesn't happen. No sounds. Everything is okay. I already seen doctors and there was no explanation .... maybe etd. maybe acid reflux. This was not helpful. Has anyone ever experienced this before? Remember, this only happens when I am sleeping. It happens every night. When I go to sleep, my ear will make a crackling, popping sound until I get up.
View 2 RepliesI find it so difficult to describe my ear /nose/Jaw/ throat problem ( I really don’t know what the problem is)! But ill try. So Ive been suffering for 11 years, I am a 30 year old female. When I was 17 I had a jaw operation as I had an under bite ( they moved the bottom jaw back and screwed it into place). All went well, then when I was 19 I took a flight to Ireland with a bad cold, when I hopped off the plane I felt like my ears needed to pop so I held my nose and tried to make them pop. BIGGEST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE! For a few days both ears were completely blocked up,could barely hear. Then it kind of cleared of sorts but left me with this weird popping, gurgle, crackle, feeling of fullness in both ears. Over the years I have seen a number of ENT’s, one gave me grommets, didn’t work. Others are just at a loss as to what it could be!
Ill try and describe my issue a bit more, so ITS CONSTANT, day in day out, im forever holding my nose and softly pushing the air out to no relief I just feel like almost a suction of crap going up and down against my eardrum, Its like it almost wants to pop and let a stream of fluid come flowing out both my ears, but it never happens. An ENT told me that my ears were in fact ‘popping’ but to me it doesn’t feel like it. When I do this the noise is intense, Ive had family members come close to me and they can actually hear the noise! They think its gross lol Sometimes it even makes a weird squeaking noise, its disturbing! Funnily enough when I get a cold, the symptoms improve to an extent (maybe its just because I'm too busy feeling sorry for myself)
Anyway if I breath in quickly and hard through my nose its like it pushes the air/fluid/ whatever it is up against my eardrum and causes intense pressure in the area, but I can breath through my nose gently with no real noise. Then if I swallow or open my jaw it pops releases the pressure BUT then the fluid/air just settles back to the normal position and when I swallow, yawn, move Jaw, or even just breath I have the weird crackle/pop/ear fullness……….It drives me insane! Also one ear will feel worse than the other at any given time, its almost like the air/fluid can move from left to right up to about 10 times a day! I know I sound crazy, my ex fianc tried to tell me its all in my head, I know im not crazy I just hope I don’t have to live with this forever!
I also notice that I clench my jaw a lot and apparently I grind my teeth.
I constantly have theories on what it is and they chop and change. Maybe I have enlarged adenoids, maybe its ETD, maybe its TMJD, maybe I have s**t stuck near my soft palate or maybe its something else……..I also always feel like I have a lot of post nasal drip and my throat gets sore easily and almost feels like its swollen at times. I have tried every nose spray, steroid etc you name it Ive tried it.
Lately I wonder if I should try some natural therapy like acupuncture or maybe a chiropractor or physio….Im hesitant to go back to another ENT as I always feel so disheartened when they tell me there is nothing they can do.
I sometimes have pounding heart along with POTS symptoms. I am diagnosed with POTS. Other findings are very low exercise threshold, multiple atrial couplets and low blood gas oxygen levels. Doctors aren't concerned, but they should be I think.
Just today I had pounding heart with loud clicking sound. This has happened before and you can very clearly hear the clicks along with the pulse. Doctor doesn't believe me, as there is no murmur usually.
I have mental illness and therefore I am not believed. I am 33 years ol male, and have intolerance to neuroleptics, which has caused heart problems.
Has anyone experienced these sounds themselves or know what they are. Nurse mentioned valve's making a sound sometimes.
Although my problem has been diagnosed as muscular, I have been doing PT for almost two months and the clicking sound when I swallow just doesn't go away (neither does the tinnitus).
I understand why the tinnitus is happening (the ligament to the inner ear is stretched), but I don't understand the clicking sound at all. Can someone explain it to me?
I have been getting a clicking noise when I blink my eyes. I was not too worried about it since it has not affected my vision. But recently I have been getting excessive tears in the eye concerned. I think there might be some sticky discharge also, it makes my vision blurry. what should i do please?
View 1 RepliesWhenever I try to sleep at noon, my heartbeat's sound just happens to increase for me. And I am then unable to sleep. Please help me.
