What Could Abnormal Sound In Ears While Blinking Or Swallowing Indicate?
Hello Dr. Bhatti, Since last night whenever I am blinking my eye or swallowing my saliva I am hearing this noise in right ear or something moving. It is a very small noise...so I have to be in a very quiet environment to hear it. Can t understand what is it. Could you please advice what should I do. I tried to clean my ear with a Q tip and the noise stopped but seems like it has come again
