A member asked:
Ears have 'whooshing'(seashell held to ear)only happens w/gerd flare up. not responding to meds, affects balance, dr wont refer to spclst. options?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Puzzling: Sound in the ear associated with a balance problem can be an inner ear problem. However, inner ear problems are virtually never caused by gerd. In children, however, gerd may lead to middle ear problems but seldomly. Your doctor is wrong in not referring you to an ENT doctor.
