Noice In Ear While Chewing
Posted: 11-30-07 15:48pm

In the last week, I can hear some noise in my right ear following each chewing. I tried to clear ear wax, there is not very much.
The sound likes when you twist a small paper ball beside the ear, but it has a lower pitch. No hearing difficulties at all, no pain, nothing wrong until chewing!

Anyone explain? Thanks,

Sand

Sound Disappears Sometimes

I have never jaw problem.
The sound is squeaky. I noticed today that jumping up and down also evoke the sound but it is milder. The funniest is that the head position also makes big difference: if I tilt my head on right side at 90 degree (my right ear has the sound) or low down my head > 90 degree front, the jaw movement no longer make the noise!! But it remains the same if I tilt my head on the left or back at 90 degree.

I will see if I can find something more strange.

I do not believe there is any serious problem, but it must have an explanation.

Thanks for you all to help me solve the puzzle.
