I Started Hearing My Pulse in My Ear, Followed by a Buzzing Tinnitus

Hi,
I'm 17 and think I have tinnitus.

About 6 months ago probably I noticed that when I slept on my left side I could hear my pulse in my left ear. Initially my right ear was unaffected.

Then probably a month ago the same problem began when I slept on my right side and I could hear my pulse in my right year.

Now, for the last few days, I have heard a continuous buzzing in my ears. (In addition to my pulse when I lie on a certain side of my body). The way I'd describe the buzzing is like as if there was a mosquito very near you. It makes sleeping really annoying and difficult. What should I do?

I'm perfectly healthy otherwise and I'd never heard of tinnitus until I did some investigation the other day...

Has anyone got some helpful advice? eg have you had this before? Do I need to see a doctor?
Thanks.

 

Yes, you should have it evaluated by a doctor. Another of my posts:

Hey @Louis Goldsmith!

Did your buzzing resolve itself? I have been experiencing similar.

Thanks.
