First of all we have to identify the reason for such low hemoglobin levels and immediately he might require an iron injections to be given with that at least 2 to 3 g of hemoglobin would increase and such injections have to be given so that it comes to normal level of 12 g.
Because of low levels of hemoglobin the heart rate would increase and the same sounds he’s able to hear it in the ears.
Get him checked with the general physician and also a clinical evaluation by an ENT surgeon.
Next Steps
Get him properly evaluated!

Severe anemai can cause heart issues and such sounds in the ear. U need to treat the cause. 5 is very low. See a general physician as soon as possible and treat the Anemia. The rest of the problems will in all likelihood get better.
