What Causes Sensation Of Heartbeat In Eardrum?

My left eardrum is occasionally having the sensation of my heartbeat. Kinda feeling a bit unbalanced in my senses at the same time. Comes in clusters for about 3-4 minutes, lasting 10-15 seconds. This has been going on for 3 days or so, but the frequency keeps getting greater.

Hello thank you for approaching HCM.
Pulsation in the ear is due to some specific conditions of the ear,like polyp,glomous tumor ,and due to some fluid accumulating lesions.

Some times it may be normal with out any problem due to sudden pulsation of normal artery.

It is also seen some vascular diseases.

You did not mentioned any deafness or pain.

Kindly consult an ENT surgeon.

You just cannot start any drugs , with out having clear picture of inside of ear.
Do not use any teardrop now.

Hope this will help you.
