In my left ear i constantly hear a swooshing heart beat sound. the only time it stops is when i press on the artery on my neck with my fingers, why?

Ear canal blockage: you may have ear canal blockage by wax that causes you to hear the temporal artery sound - get your ear checked by an ENT physician
