ENT doctor can help: A person with such symptoms can check her hearing by seeing and ENT doctor and an audiologist. She can call her primary care doctor to explain why she wants to check her hearing. Simple hearing tests can be done at some primary care offices. More complex hearing tests need to be done at at audiology office.

Sometimes my ear drum thumps/spasms when I'm talking. I'm a bilateral tinnitus and tmj sufferer. Hearing is good, normal exams from ENT. I do get pain and fullness in my ear when I'm having a day like that at times, but sometimes just thumps no pain?

I have tinnitus, 4 years of artillery, is it common for my ears to pop then ring at least 5 times louder to the point of not hearing people talk around me? Happens at least once a day and lasts 1 min up to hours?

High pitched squeal and low hum in my ears. doctors either jump to tinnitus or send me to audiologist who in turn tries to sell me hearing aids. Ears seem blocked but the noise is keeping from sleeping and driving me insane!!

I have clicking/popping sound in ear when I burp Im almost 99% sure it isnt ear wax. I also have sudden onset tinnitus in right ear no noticeable hearing loss. Could it be Eustachian Tube dysfunction and glue ear?
