A member asked:
After doing a cardio workout, my right ear has been fluttering/twitch. it feels like a butterfly flapping its wings. i have had this feeling before but only for a few minutes, not hours. could this be due to stress and working out? sleep deprivation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ear fluttering: Ear.fluttering is usually caused by spasms of tiny muscle in the middle ear affecting the ear drum. Occasionally a wax cast or hair can be seen & removed by an otolaryngologist. I can't think that stress &.anxiety would be common causes. If you still have concerns, consult an otolaryngologist for evaluation & advice.
