Everytime I swallow or clench my throat I hear a loud clicking Sound in my ears. A few months ago I had 2 inner ear Infections.
Is the sound from the Eustachian tubes and is it a form of eustachian tube dysfunction?
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 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 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.
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 Replies3 months ago I was diagnosed with Septic Pneumonia and was in hospital for 10 days. It took me a good month to recover and sometimes I still think I am. I have chronic lung probs already from being a prem baby. Since I have had my last bout of pneumonia I have been feeling a clicking sensation in my left side where I had the pneumonia and pleurisy. Could someone explain what this clicking feeling is? Is it part of the scarring that's left?

View 2 Repliesi have had ringing in the ears (tinnitus) now for like 6 month and i also just noticed a few months ago everytime i swallow my ears click very very loud does anyone know what this could be?
View 1 RepliesI have had clicking in my ears for over two weeks now, whenever I talk or finish a sentence, or if I make a certain manoeuvre with my nose/palate/mouth, not quite sure, but I don't have to open my mouth in order to make the clicks.
It started off in my right ear but is now in both and is so loud I have become so anxious and depressed and don't want to talk to anybody.
The clicks are audible externally, and if I cry and become congested I get slight relief and also if I tilt my head forward or lay my head in certain positions.
I went to the doctors yesterday who instantly diagnosed me with TMJ. I'm not sure whether to believe this, as the clicks aren't there when I open and close my jaw and why does it temporarily ease off when I am congested?
Two days ago I was in the gym exercising my shoulders and whilst I was lifting weights, I moved my back whilst seated and I heard a 'click' sound in my back, followed by pain in that area of my lower middle back. I immediately stopped exercising and haven't gone to the gym since.
I don't know what I was thinking by moving my back like that, but since it happened there is a lot less pain and it feels like the pain may be totally gone in the next 48-72 hours hopefully.
On the night of the injury I found it hard to turn onto my side when in bed, but now I can do it without any problems. Now I can only feel some pain when I turn my upper body to the left or right or if I try to stretch my lower back.
Would anyone be able to give me some advice such as what type of injury I have or whether this may have a long term effect? Is it a very positive sign that the pain is decreasing each day?
I 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.
Has anyone experienced a loud roaring low frequency noise in ear with hearing distortion. I woke up one morning in December of 2015 and felt like there was a gong in my head all sound was vibrating. I felt like I was in the front seat of a car driving down the highway with the back windows open halfway. I went to doctor and found I had lost some low frequency hearing in right ear. I was Put on steroids for two weeks. Got hearing back but left with this loud tuning fork/motor engine sound in my right ear and random hearing distortion in both ears. I am very sensitive to low-frequency sounds and any kind of motors, airplanes and low voices just don't sound clear. The motor engine stops when I speak and returns after my last word. When someone speaks to me loud enough the motor engine will stop also and than return upon their last word. Sometime sound drives the motor engine into the other ear and I feel a fluttering/vibration/rumbling sound in the left ear. If I shake my head back and forth quickly the noise will stop for a second while doing it.
Had so many tests and scans that don't show anything wrong. My hearing test are normal now. It is driving me insane. Can't eat or concentrate. Severe anxiety. Went to audiologist and see if I could have it masked but it is to loud. I can't believe I can still hear over this noise and distortion that is going on in my head. Some days are better than others and I think I may be getting better but it gets worse again. I have no dizziness at all. Some doctors told me meniere's disease or virus. I can't stand it anymore. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Can anyone tell me if it's normal to feel your hip clicking. I had HR 11 weeks ago and have just started to feel it click when I move.
View 4 RepliesCan TMJ cause clicking on only one side of the jaw or does it generally affect both sides? Do different intensity levels
of night teeth grinding affect how much damage is done to the jaw parts? Can TMJ cause mild ear pain?
Tonight I started to feel something weird in my throat. I don't really know how to describe it, but I feel something in my throat, like something's there or stuck when I swallow, but there's nothing there. It doesn't hurt, my throat doesn't feel strange at all, and my breathing is fine, but it's just unsettling because I have really bad anxiety and every time anything happens with my throat, I get really anxious and scared, which leads me to have an anxiety attack, so I've been looking online for some answers, but so far I haven't found much.
I have been sick for the past week and I've been coughing a lot (I almost lost my voice), so maybe I've hurt my throat or something? I don't really feel it when I'm drinking something, but it does feel a little more rough to swallow than usual, even with my cold.
I'm really suffering with my health anxiety at the moment it's throat cancer and I'm driving myself demented
Started about 2 weeks ago when I swallow getting the odd clicking popping sensation eating and drinking appear to be ok and sort of relieve it for 10 mins then it's back no pain when swallowing Throat just feels tight.
My knee has started clicking when going down the stairs the odd time when i sit,My knees can be very painful at times,other times sore,but this clicking been for months now,any idea's
View 3 RepliesAbout a year ago my ex partner pushed me forcefully in the throat. Immediately I told him that he had done something to my neck. I gripped my throat with my hand to hold it back in place. I had experienced a popping in my throat and knew something was wrong. From that day to this I have had trouble swallowing my own saliva. Eating is difficult and I stopped drinking for fear of the bone clicking out of line. It usually happens when my head is turned to the left side and I either yawn or swallow. This immediately causes my larynx to pop out and it is petrifying as you think you are going to die. This has caused me to have panic attacks and a fear of swallowing. I recently had the start of kidney failure due to not drinking enough due to fear of swallowing. When I try to swallow my own saliva I cannot complete the motion and continuously feel if I have a thick lump in my throat and to swallow I have to swallow hard which causes me to have a sharp pain in my jaw and pain going from my throat to my ear, which feels tender all the time. This injury was reported to the police and I have now had an ultrasound and being sent for further investigations in the ENT dept. I am waiting for an appointment now. I have started to search the web for information on the larynx .. What does it look like, how does it work etc. and came across your site where I have read about other people having exactly he same larynx popping out problem. It truly is frightening and gives me such discomfort and I constant reminder of the assault. I wonder if this can be operated on to relieve the pain and discomfort.
View 1 RepliesI'm 8 weeks pregnant n my right ankle clicks everytime I move it n it's sore to stand on it has been doing it for the last 2 week's.
View 3 RepliesI am frustrated and hope someone can help. I am a male in my early 50's and I am very healthy. I have never had any problems with my hearing but now my right ear is clogged and there is a clicking sound when swallowing, drinking, etc. This is a result of head trauma.
In late June 2013, 9 months ago, I did something very stupid and have regretted it ever since. I was using a Hi Lift jack, that is normally used for 4x4 trucks, etc., to jack a trailer up. I was stupid and leaned over the jack to look at something on the trailer. The leaning over meant I leaned between the jack handle and the lifting part of the jack, and I was not holding the handle. Just at that exact moment the handle sprung free and slammed back up right, hitting me squarely on the left side of my head. I wanted to pass out but did not. However, it hurt like heck and for the next 12 - 24 hours I could barely talk and eating was out of the question. My jaw and head hurt so bad. And, after this I noticed my right ear was plugged and clicked when swallowing, drinking, and so on.
I thought it would eventually go away as I was sure I had some swelling, etc from the jack handle hitting me but it has not. I finally went to my family doctor and he diagnosed me with TMJ and sent me to a doctor specializing in craniofacial issues and TMJ. He said my right side of my face hurting more than the left side that actually took the brunt of the jack handle force was correct because everything got shoved to the right. I started wearing a lower mouth piece in early Dec 2013, approx. 5 months after the injury. He stated my jaw was dislocated slightly and the mouth piece should eventually fix it and end the muffled sound and clicking. Well, here it is almost 4 months later and there has been zero change. He did add a water filled additional support for me to wear at night to see if lifting the mouthpiece higher will help. I believe the idea is for the jaw to be able to relax to allow any residual swelling to decrease without any tension on the jaw and muscles.
I was thinking if the mouth piece was to gradually reposition my jaw then perhaps I was out of alignment in that area and the chiropractor I had seen years ago could help. He could not find anything wrong and suggested I find a person who specializes in craniosacral massage therapy. I was unsure what that was exactly and after reading about it decided I would pass on it given it's reputation. I then thought that perhaps an ENT might be able to figure this out so I scheduled an appointment with one.
I saw him 3 days ago and he could not see anything wrong although he did think my right ear was interesting because he said the ear drum was not firmly attached to the bone, but that it was not a problem. He did refer me to a different office to a different ENT for a hearing test and a Eustachian tube function test and I had that done today.
The Eustachian tube function test showed that everything was fine and functioning properly.
The hearing test was fine and did not show any loss of hearing. What I did find interesting myself was that the test administrator's voice was louder I my muffled right ear although she said she had not changed the volume at all from when she was speaking into my left ear. Weird...muffled side was louder.
I go into another room and this different ENT doctor looked in my ears, throat, and nose, and said there was nothing wrong with me. I was asked if I had allergies of which I replied minimal issues since her colleague had done my septoplasty 6 - 7 years ago. In fact, most people I know are suffering with allergies the past few weeks and I had my biggest issues 5 days ago. I took two of those little red sudafed pills and 400 mg Ibuprofen and that took care of my allergy issue. This ENT prescribed me a steroid nose spray (nasonex?) spray and I was instructed to spray it straight back in my nose into the eustachian tube area and not straight up the nose like normal nose sprays.
This ENT doctor did not see anything interesting with the eardrum not being firmly attached to the bone, meaning she thought it was attached completely. So, there is a difference of opinion between ENT doctors. One sees something interesting, one does not.
This is so frustrating because there is something wrong with my right ear. When I plug my nose and blow like you do when you want to pop & clear your ears my left ear clears like normal but the right ear does not. It is plugged, it is muffled, and it clicks. There is no pain, and no discomfort, but it is irritating because it is not right. It should clear.
What is gong on with normal hearing, normal eustachian tube function, two ENTs look into my ear and do not see any infection, do not see any wax build up, nothing. They say everything is fine, even though it is not. They know of the injury to my head but cannot find anything wrong.
Another thing I did was back in December I was take 800mg of Ibuprofen twice per day, for a total of 1,600 mg, for probably two solid weeks, and that was after 2 days of taking hydrocodone. This was a result of a doctor doing an outpatient procedure on me, wait, did I say doctor? That is another story for another day but what I am getting at is since Ibuprofen helps with swelling I would have thought any swelling any place in my body would have been taken care with that high a dose for so long. But, there was no change in the muffled and clogged and clicking noise issue in my right ear.
i was diagnosed with hyperthyroid 6 weeks ago, started taking metoprolol 25mg twice a day... on the 4th day i noticed my ears were popping every time i swallowed... and have been ever since. went to ENT today and had a scope done of nose and throat w/everything fine... anyone else had this type of issue?
I finally see specialist tomorrow and hope to get on meds... i have tremors all over body, anxiety, fatigue, high heart rate (120 at times)
