ETD in runners: Your ENT specialist would be in a better position to answer this question knowing your medical history and having discussed treatment options. For a chronic condition like ETD, a regular activity like jogging shouldn't be too risky while a bit annoying. I would make sure you give yourself regular breaks to make sure your condition keeps returning to normal, while you seek additional advice.

When I walk or run I hear a click behind my left ear. Its not a ringing sound and I normally only hear it walking. Noticed it a week ago. When I press on the bone behind my left ear and walk, I dont hear the sound. What could be the cause?

What exactly does it mean when you are getting a cold and can hear a bubble-poping/ running water sound in the ear?

I sometimes hear a strange click (or possibly even crackle) at the top of my head, it doesn't happen often but it can be provoked by running.
