Question 1

i am hearing a clicking noise in head while walking what is it?

Accepted Answer

Most likely: Articulation of upper cervical vertebrae. As we walk, our cervical spine normally rotates on itself to compensate for the motion of legs/pelvis. You may have mild osteoarthritis or mal-alignment of the cervical spine that is causing some clicking while walking. Try strengthening and strengthening exercises of cervical spine and possibly manipulation could help as well.

Question 2

what is best medication for symptom pt complaing of noise in head and ears.?

Accepted Answer

Get checked: get both your ears checked and get your TM joints checked.  Toxins and/or pathogens could settle in either the ears or the TM joint causing noises or ringing. Also biomechanical factors could be causing TM joint issues resulting in ear noises.

Question 4

Accepted Answer

URI: Your congestion could be relieved with pseudoephedrine or oxymetozaline as decongestants. You might try nasal saline irrigation using a Neti-pot. Nasal steroid spray might also be of some benefit. Hope you are well soon. By the way, this does not sound like a condition for which you need antibiotics.

Question 5

Do not worry: The sound is likely from the stretching of the muscles that normally move the eyeball.
Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. For nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

Maybe tinnitus: Tinnitus is ringing in your ears or feeling a pulse in your ear . This could also be vascular and be a pulse or aneurysm. It is best to get it clarified as it may be nothing serious at all

Question 8

i have a constant '"swiahing" noise" in my head , sometimes it really bothers me every day, sometimes not. it is bothers me a lot. i am 54.

Accepted Answer

Subjective bruit: I'm assuming you meant to type "swishing." this is called a subjective bruit. I suggest you search on that topic.

Question 9

i feel like i have background noise in my head. what should i do?

Accepted Answer

Tinnitis: What you're describing is ringing in the ears or Tinnitis. A new found cause for this is jaw clenching and bruxism or night grinding of teeth. The TMJ or jaw joint is right in front of the ear and when inflamed can cause probs like this. See your dentist or physician to get started on the right track to help. There are meds to help too. : )

Question 10

i hear a funny noise in my head when i turn it left or right.  it is a kind of crispy noise.  what could be the cause?

Accepted Answer

Crepitus: This is called crepitus and it usually is due to cartilage changes at the joints of the neck called facet joints.  Not of concern unless it is painful to move your neck.
