Constant 'murmur' in left ear driving me CRAZY!
33 year old woman -- I had a hearing tests last year and it come back normal at the doctor. She say there's nothing wrong with my ear. BUT there is. She said get a 'white noise machine,' but I don't want that I want this fix... I have a constant murmur sound in my left ear only. It is extremely annoying; only way to describe it is like a murmur, 'trapped air,' or what you hear when you listen to conch shell from the beach. There isn't no pain at all, tried cleaning ears with peroxide and water. If I lay down on that left side or turn head to right side it gets literally blares loud in protest. If twist head all the way left -- sound goes away but comes back when head is facing front. Sigh. Sometimes my hearing will drop lower and then is replaced by a ringing for like 5 min. then THAT stops. But the murmur, can't get rid of it.
The weirdest part: if I squeeze the left side of my neck the sound stops completely but start soon as I let go again. Sometime I have to dothis just to get relief and a quiet moment. What do these symptoms represent and what is this all about. I can't lives like this need to know what is going on. Ty
