Ear throbbing: anyone else felt this?
Lately I’ve had a strange sensation in my right ear — it’s like it’s throbbing irregularly (kind of the like the feeling when you’re heart is beating really fast after a vigorous workout).
I’ve never had this sensation before, but it seems to show up mostly in the morning and before I go to bed. I’ve started using in-ear headphones more often lately, and I’m wondering if it has something to do with that.
My overall balance seems to have improved a bit though, right about the time the ear throbbing started. Could this be some kind of sign that something is going on in my ear? That the throbbing has somehow improved my balance?
I’m just wondering if anyone else has felt this kind of throbbing in their ear before. It’s a very unique sensation, and if you’ve had it, I’m sure you’ll know what I mean.

The only time i’ve ever felt that ear “throb” is after a good workout or a very loud concert.

This weird ear throbbing thing has been getting more consistent and more frequent. It’s a really weird throbbing sensation of fullness in my ear (only right ear). I’m hoping the VRT can help with this as well.

Oh that sounds horrid. Hopefully it will prove itself to be a clearcut resolution. *crossing fingers sans toes*

It definitely is. But based on the good news I’ve gotten in the past few days, I’m very hopeful.
