Hi,

Noted the short history of a 53 year old lady having drumming or pounding in head and ears, continuous for 3 days, worse when in bed at night, wants opinion.
The commonest causes of such symptoms can any anything of the following:
Hypertension meaning high blood pressure.
Hyperthyroidism meaning high thyroid function.
Anxiety or stress.
Any tumor or other condition of brain.
Hence I would advise you the following:
Consult your regular Doctor so that a proper clinical evaluation including the vital and general examination can have clinical diagnosis to be supported by investigations and to be evaluated further by referral to a Specialist if needed.
Once a proper diagnosis is made then a specific treatment can cure your problems or evaluated further and treated as per the cause found.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. T. Chandrakant, ENT and General Surgeon
