I Have Pulsating Noise In Left Ear With Pain

Age 45 - For the last 4 weeks I have been experiencing a pulsating noise (sounds like a heartbeat) in my left ear. And for the last week or so I have slight pain in the same ear. Is this something that will cure it s self and I should just ignore it, or should I have it checked out?

Pulsating noise is a form of Tinnitus. It indicates that something may be there inside the middle ear, like fluid due to nasal infection, mass from tumors. Please visit the ENT Specialist who will examine you well and be able to suggest the right management of your problem.
