Thumping in ear

While taking A-C, I developed a horrible sore throat. Took penicillin and it went away. However, I then developed a thumping in my ear. It was the oddest thing -- when I would turn my head, "thump"!

I went to the GP who said it was a side effect of the infection I had. I needed to take decongestants for about two weeks (even though I didn't feel congested) and it cleared up, never to return. You might want to try that to see if it clears up.
