Can you hear your pulse?

KDAH

If you hear your "heartbeat" thumping in your ear, it may be due to pulsatile tinnitus. It is a type of rhythmic thumping, throbbing, or whooshing only you can hear that is often in time with the heartbeat. The sound is the result of turbulent flow in blood vessels in the neck or head. Consult your doctor for more details.
