Getting Pulsations in Right Ear When Lying Down

Hi everyone!

Just noticed that when I lay on my right side before falling asleep, I can feel pulsations in my right ear. It is all according to how I move my neck, it comes and goes. My tinnitus never changes though, it is always a constant high pitched sound in both ears. Any thoughts why this pulsation comes? Has anyone experienced anything similar? My tinnitus appeared 3 months after a car whiplash, with no major previous noise exposure.

 

You could be picking your pulse up from your Carotid Artery with pressure on your neck if its ok other times...lots of love glynis

 

About 15 years ago (I've had T over 40 years) I'd get a bad fluttering eardrum, BAD, at night lying on my left side.
Not on the right.. ???? A year or two went by putting up with this til I wondered ..l. My ears 'come alive' at night. Most peoples' do. Like when there's a small sound and you're in bed but you are startled by it. And I thought that maybe some small sound was getting to me since I have tinnitus. Sure enough, I forget now what it was, but there was a small constant sound of an appliance or clock or something that I hadn't noticed til I really listened for it. So I connected that sound with the fluttering. I put cotton in my ear and the fluttering stopped instantly.
