What Are The Reasons For Heart Beats In The Right Ear?

I have heard my heart beating in my right ear for 6 months. I have gone to an ENT, cardiologist and natural pathologist. I ve had a CT with and without dye, EKG, echo, carotid ultrasound & hearing tests. All were fine. At the start I thought I had an ear infections & consequently took 2 rounds of antibiotics. I feel pressure sometimes but feel like I always need to pop my ear to no avail. It s driving me crazy. Any thoughts?

Hi.
Noted your history of hearing of heart beating in the right ear since 6 months and you have undergone necessary ENT consultation, CT scan, EKG, cardiac ultrasound and hearing test.
You have also gone with 2 courses of antibiotics and still have need to pop the ears.
My thoughts.
By this time the diagnosis should have been made.
I would advise you the MRI and MRI angiography to see for the glomus tumor, vascular malformation which might have been missed on CT scan.

Once the diagnosis is made the treatment becomes easy.
