What Causes Random Sound In Ear?

Hi. About 2 weeks ago, in my right ear, i hear a sound witch is totally random. Random meaning the sound comes and goes as it wants. I haven t noticed any particular movements that bring it on and i cant make it happen, it just happens. The best way i can describe it is if you were to stretch a rubber band, hold it tight, than pluck it. Its one little pluck sound

Thanks for your question. The sound may be there due to eustachian tube dysfunction. You may consider use of nasal decongestant drops to treat this condition , after confirmation of diagnosis.
