Ear problem

I have had this crazy ear problem, especially loud ringing and fulliness for about 4 weeks now in my right ear, had pain in neck, with pain meds, have eased that, ENT had no sign of infection in ears.

Didn't need any other issues while still dealing with PM implantment last July. Now this ear deal is driving me up the wall.

ear discomfort

Hi! Do you possibly have allergies that could be causing your problem? Has your carotid artery been checked? Take care and get more/different medical advice until you get a diagnosis. Hopeful Heart

No meds

Only take a baby asprin each morning as Doctor requested because of mild cornary heart diease. I have SSS, but PM is turned on to keep HR about 60 at rest, but it also corrects pauses and arryhmias as needed. Carotid arterys have been checked and have little or no blockage. Actually they said at my age of 50, that arterys are less than expected at my age as for build up.
Allergys are a problems for me, always have been.

Hopefully, this is not what you're suffering from....I do...for quite sometime now...and like you....it's been driving me to the wall for years!!!!
I do believed it started for me way back 2007 after a major surgery and have it since then.
Unfortunately, ENT cannot do anything about it....even pain meds did not work for me...
I thought I was losing my hearing as well but ENT said nope!
Like you, I'm 50 and living with lots of allergies but not bad (non allergy and allergy combo whether it's environmental, chemicals...u name it......I can deal with them!!!
From what I read...tinnitus is not curable....I just have to deal with it....and I had taken some herbal but no luck...it's still there.....until now...the pain comes and goes....it normally on my right ear....sometimes it shift to the left..bugger!!!!
Ahhh......Old age!!!
