Experiencing tinnitus
I have been experiencing continuous pulse like wooshing sound in my right ear for the last 5 months. At first, it was barely noticeable, but now I can feel it all the time. But it has not affected my hearing, and there is no pain. But the ear does feel like in a constant muffled state. When I compress my neck on the right side, this wooshing stops. And since the last 2-3 days, it has started in my left ear as well, very slightly,noticeable only when its very silent around. Is this something that I should be worried about?
