I have a "cracking" sound in my right ear that is really starting to bug me. No pain, just a cracking noise with a slight "swooshing" sound on occasion. Any suggestions on what the problem may be??

I have that sometimes when I have a hair in my ear. You probably have something small in your ear. Swooshing would be liquid. Ear problems are nothing to fool around with go to the doctor.
Good luck!

sounds like swimmers ear or fluid in your inner ear ...I've had both once and it was irratating hearing all the noise in my ears...my doctor told me to do this::::
mix 1 part white rubbing alcohol
with 1 part white vinagar ( 1/2 and1/2 solution)
pour a few drops in each ear one at a time letting it remain in each ear for about 10 minutes before letting it drain out repeat 2 times a day for up to a week.... it only took me a few days to get rid of the problem

Some kind of fluid imbalance. Any hard hits on the field or loud music? have a doc check it out, may just be water deep in the ear canal.

Sounds like fluid behind the ear drum. Or it could possibly be that you have something in your ear. I'd check with my doctor just to be sure.

It may possibly be tinnitus, which can cause sound distortion or ringing in the ears, I would go to an ear, nose, and throat specialist to have it checked out.

Once I had a dog hair inside my ear and it sounded like that. Go to a doctor.

Go get it checked out just in case. You shouldn't use q-tips because you can push the wax back in your head and cause an infection. dip a q-tip in peroxide and drip it once in your ear.

Sounds like fluid behind your eardrum. Try benadryl or something to help dry up your sinuses or you could try allergy meds. If it does not clear up with some self treatment see your doctor.

My dad had a moth in his ear - no kidding- that had to be removed at the emergency room. It was tunneling in for a nest!
