Butterfly in ear!

I keep getting a fluttering in my ear, as if I have a butterfly in there flapping around near my ear drum. Does anyone else get this, or know why it happens? And no, I'm certain there are no insects in there :p:

Sounds like your ear drum has swollen.

Your gonna die!

No not really, but it may perhaps have come from listening to music or the TV too loud. Do you have an IPOD?

Butterfly in Ear? That's my favourite Dali painting.

Have you been swimming recently? Or generally dunked your head in water? It might be what the French call eau d'ear.

I do, but I haven't used it in months. I don't tend to listen to anything loud anyway; my dad is half deaf and it drives me mental having to listen to his loud tv, so I tend to go the opposite way and have everything on really quiet!

I did go to V Festival this weekend (and was right at the front in front of the speakers), but it started before I went there.

I went diving last month as well and had some ear problems whilst I was down, but it calmed down once I got back home. :confused:

That's a frightening thought, I hate butterflies they creep me out.

I thought you'd lost an earring back in your ear. Sorry that was completely unhelpful.
