Suggest Treatment For Headaches And Cracking Sound In Ears

Hi, I have had headaches on and off for the last couple of weeks, they are not bad just annoying but when I swallow my ears make a crackling sound and my head feels like there s pressure in it. Also I sometimes get a light headed feeling almost a bit dizzy! Could this be an ear issue?

Hi
I appreciate your concern
it could be a case of middle ear inflammation or vestibular dysfunction
please make a visit to an ENT surgeon for detailed evaluation
middle ear cavity is connected to the mouth so pressure in middle ear releases through that connection called eustachain tube which produces crackling sound
you need not to worry much
please visit your doctor
Hope I have answered your question
good luck
have a nice day
