      Cause of Tinnitus:
      Noise Exposure
      So, I've had regular 24/7 tinnitus since July. Constant ringing and all that.

      However, since October I have had another issue arise that seems somewhat similar to pulsatile tinnitus, but seems to have distinct differences. First of all it is much more of a feeling than a sound, and after listening to some examples of what pulsatile tinnitus sounds like, it isn't all that similar. But completely randomly, sometimes for hours a day every day, and sometimes only once a week, my ears will have a sortve thumping sensation, where it feels like something in my ear is pulsing outwards. However, it is not whatsoever in tune with my heartbeat and really doesn't sound like a heartbeat. And again, its more of a feeling than a sound. I plan on seeing an ENT soon but figured I would ask those around here what they thought
