My right ear has been sort of vibrating when I make certain movements and feels clogged.?

Question

For about 2 months now, very often my ear feels like when you have water in it, sort of clogged and when I make certain movements, it sort of vibrates. Sometimes Im not even moving and I hear a sort of pulsing sound. I cant afford med insurance which is why Im hoping someone can help. Thanks.

Answer 1

As a professional in the hearing healthcare field, DO NOT try holding your nose and blowing, as this could perforate your tympanic membranes (ear drums). With the limited amount of information concerning your situation, like is dizziness or pain present..has there been a sudden change in your hearing ability...are you having any drainage from the ear/ears, it wouldn't be possible to try and diagnose your problem, ( beware of anyone that trys), you just need to see an ENT, AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, especially if you're having pains in your ear, this could be a situation that could get out of hand .

Answer 2

Sounds like you have a ear infection . you could try to maybe clear some of the pressure out by laying on your side and have a friend pour ear full of hydrogen peroxide and letting that bubble out the ear . If this doesn't help you will probably need to see Dr. Because an inter ear infection can be really nasty and mess with your balance You might try DeBrox to remove the hardened wax from your ear It is about 5.00 at Walmart Apply drops for 2 or 3 days then irrigate with warm water to remove wax

Answer 3

I think you might be suffering from a fungus infection in your ear canal. Do you pick your ears, or put objects in them because it itches? When i had one my ears felt as if i was under water...try with glycerin drops, they are sold at almost every pharmacy and are cheap, just in case they are just clogged with ear wax. Instill one drop in each ear twice daily for 3 days. If a clog doesn't come out, try buying over the counter antibiotic drops for your ears.

Answer 4

It could be impacted earwax. If you some type of instrument to use, that's not dangerous, you can fill it up with warm water and squeeze it into your ear about 6-10 times until it comes out over a sink or bowl.

Answer 5

It sounds like an ear infection, but I'm not a medical professional. You need to se a Dr. Try your local Health Department. A lot of them give low cost or free medical care. They should be able to help with meds, too. Good luck! (P.S.--- IF that is what it is, do ASAP-- it can lead to hearing loss if left untreated).

Answer 6

Plug your nose and blow it will cause the tubes in your middle ear to clear you may have to do this 6-10 time per day. If you feel dizziness you will have to seek medical help as you have a simple ear infection, but left untreated it can cause scarring and hearing loss.

Answer 7

You can buy some kind of numbing ear drops over the counter, or try a few drops of rubbing alcohol in the ear thats bothering you. It drys up extra water and kills any germs or infection. Hope this helps!

Answer 8

It sounds like you may have excessive wax build-up thus causing the vibrations and pulsing sounds. There are products over the counter that may help you with this problem. If that does not solve the problem I would suggest calling an ear specialist and consult with them.

Answer 9

Q-tips are never recommended for ear-wax removal. There are dissolving agents in the OTC departments of retail stores, and all drug stores. Try using that, otherwise you may have an ear infection. Consult your doctor if the symptom persists.

Answer 10

sometimes if you lie on your side and have someone drop a few drops of rubbing alcohol in your ear (not a lot), it can dry up moisture in the ear. It may not help in this instance but I have done it when my ears have gotten stopped up after swimming a lot.
