A member asked:

What causes u to hear the earbone sound on one side of the ear while biting and chewing?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Conductive hearing : If there is wax in the ear or fluid behind the eardrum the sound through the air is diminished but the vibratory sound through the bones is normal giving an air-bone gap - the sensation that is referred to.
