Objective tinnitus
In some cases, tinnitus is generated by a self-sustained oscillation within the ear. This is called objective tinnitus which can arise from muscle spasms around the middle ear.
[30] Homestatic control mechanisms exist to correct the problem within a minute after onset and is normally accompanied by a slight reduction in hearing sensitivity followed by a feeling of fullness in the ear.
[31]
Objective tinnitus can most often can be heard as a sound outside the ear, as
spontaneous otoacoustic emissions (SOAEs) that can form beats with and lock into external tones.
[32] The majority of the people are unaware of their SOAEs; whereas portions of 1-9% perceive a SOAE as an annoying tinnitus.
[33]
Pulsatile tinnitus
Some people experience a sound that beats in time with their pulse (pulsatile tinnitus, or vascular tinnitus).
[34] Pulsatile tinnitus is usually
objective in nature, resulting from altered blood flow, increased blood turbulence near the ear (such as from
atherosclerosis, venous hum,
[35] but it can also arise as a subjective phenomenon from an increased awareness of blood flow in the ear.
[34] Rarely, pulsatile tinnitus may be a symptom of potentially life-threatening conditions such as
carotid artery aneurysm[36] or
carotid artery dissection.
[37] Pulsatile tinnitus may also indicate
vasculitis, or more specifically,
giant cell arteritis. Pulsatile tinnitus may also be an indication of
idiopathic intracranial hypertension.
