Suggest Treatment For Pulsatile Tinnitus
I have 3 symptoms that might be related. #1 I frequently can hear my pulse in my ears. I have checked my wrist pulse and the beats are the same. #2 I frequently have tingling in my legs upon standing. Sometimes I need to stop because they sometimes feel weak until the tingling passes. #3 Less frequently I sometimes have tingling in my arms. These 3 do not necessarily happen simultaneously, and the blood rushing in my ears I notice most during the night.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Your suffering from pulsatile tinnitus it may be due to elevated blood pressure or hemangioma or aneurysms of vessels around ear or glomus tumor of ear or anemia or beri beri or raised intracranial pressure etc.
Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is.
Need to be examined properly by otoscope, audiometry, tympanogram, MRI brain, nose and throat examination etc.
In case heavy mucosal edema may transmit pulsation to ear.
Avoid cool drinks and frozen water, avoid smoking and caffeine drinks.
Use water vapor inhalation and salt water gargling thrice a day for five days.
Please consult your ENT specialist, he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Take care.
