Hearing a thumping in your ears also known as pulsatile tinnitus can be caused from meniere s disease which can affect your balance and hearing. There are a number of reasons why you can hear your own heartbeat when you bend over. It is a type of rhythmic thumping pulsing throbbing or whooshing only you can hear that is often in time with the heartbeat. Most people with pulsatile tinnitus hear the sound in one ear though some hear it in both.
This could be due to the narrowing of your blood vessels or a sudden increase in blood flow. Other causes of pulsing in the ear include earwax buildup or temporomandibular joint dysfunction disorder. Routine ear examination to rule out earwax or fluid build up behind the ear drum. The sound is the result of turbulent flow in blood vessels in the neck or head.
Bloop pressure variations and anemia. Unlike other types of tinnitus it is generally not associated with any damage to the cochlea in your inner ear or auditory nerve damage. If your blood pressure is normal it most likely is not a cause of concern. Because of either of these things you could end up hearing your heartbeat in your ear.
