It could be a sign of an Arterial Veinius Malformation. Go see a doctor to rule this out. Especially if you didn’t suffer any trauma. This could be life threatening if it were to rupture. Seek a medical professional sometimes it causes pain possibly headaches and then the pain goes away. But the AVM is still there waiting to strike. My husband had AVM radiation treatment at JOHN Hopkins in Baltimore MD. He’s doing fine, but had pain and sometimes intense headaches he finally went to a doctor and had a CT scan done with dye.

What is this scary pulsing on left side of my head at night?
This is something that happens only once in a while, but usually when I lie down at night. I typically sleep on my left side. Sometimes, as soon as my head hits the pillow, I will have a sensation that feels like a huge artery or vein is pulsing on the left side of my head. It's a very strong racing pulsation, and can be scary. The location is a spot just above and slighty forward of my ear. Not sure if it's related, but I also occasionally have a slight feeling of numbness on the lower left side of my face, the area close to the corner of my mouth. It usually lasts just a few seconds, and may not happen again for days, weeks or months. Has anyone ever heard of or experienced these symptoms?

A throbbing pulse in left ear?
The one that sounds like a beating or pulsating in your ear is called as pulsatile tinnitus. Pulsatile tinnitus is experienced as a rhythmical noise beating just in time or in tune with the beat of your heart. The kind of noise that you may hear from this kind of tinnitus is that of a low-pitched thumping or sometimes a high-pitched clicking noise. Since pulsatile tinnitus sounds like our heart beating in our ears, people may conclude that once you suffer from this kind of tinnitus there must be something wrong with your heart. That is not generally the case here. Pulsatile tinnitus is related with problems in blood flow rather than the heart in specific. What usually happens in this case is that when a blood vessel is narrower than the ordinary, an increase of blood flow in a certain part of the vein or arteries takes place. This is when the adjacent blood vessels have to carry extra blood thus resulting to a generation of a beating or pulsing noise. The bulk of tinnitus sufferers have somehow damaged the fragile structures of the inner ear. It’s called persistent redness. This redness causes increased blood flow to the damaged tissue, which is present in the ear. This blood flow causes the ringing sound or tinnitus. Sinus Problems also lead to pulsating tinnitus. Thyroid Dysfunction also causes pulsatile tinnitus. In a specific dysfunction Hyperthyroidism, causes increased quicker heart beats. Pulsating tinnitus isn’t an illness by itself. It is the side effect or the after effect of the other malfunctions in our body. Finding the real cause of pulsating tinnitus is the complicated part. If its done the cure will be simple.
