High pitch EEE, along with a vibrational/low base humming sound pounding in my head/ears. It's strange though, cause when I cup my ears, the vibration kind of goes away and I'm left with the high pitch EEE. Not sure what it means though.

Hello all, I have tinnitus that came from an epidural which made a leak in the spine. Normally this symptom disappears, but for me it has stayed. I have a very deep low frequency hum/vibration feeling in one ear. And then some high pitch tones. It has been here for 2 months. Two days ago...

Hello @Ben Winders, I have been reading your posts and I think I have something similar. I was exposed to multiple gunshots 10 days ago while wearing ear protection (that apparently wasn't sufficient). My hearing was muffled also with hyperacusis for several days, and hearing loss in my left ear...

Gin, there is another thread about this low hum affliction that you might want to read. In it, I describe the hell I've been through, off and on, for the last 20 years: https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/humming-sound-in-left-ear.6437/

This happens in particular with low frequencies specifically? I wonder if extra stimulation is happening at the "formants" of the low frequency sounds. Is it both ears? Do the low frequency sounds sound otherwise normal?

I had the same problem with my computer fans spiking my humming tinnitus (as it is connected with my high frequency tinnitus/hearing loss). I bought an M1 MacBook. Problem solved. No more fans. And I play games on it, I connect a huge monitor to it, watch 4K videos on it, and the fans never...

Im also having a down day, mostly due to the stupid story:( Also, I developed a low humming in my one ear for no apparent reason:( I suggesst you visit a doctor for the meds though. very hard to give advise on a board.

...things were great while on them, quite minimal tinnitus and distortions were there but reduced. The DAY I finished my course I got a low humming sound that night, followed by high frequency hearing loss in the morning (nothing sounded right)...that eventually went away... but then the...

Lily 04 I do think that grief and stress or trauma can cause or exacerbate tinnitus.

Hi, I have been reading this forum to get me through the past few months and the people and info are wonderful. It has answered so many questions for me. I know that I am supposed to habituate and have been trying so hard. It's a losing battle so far. I also suffer from severe chronic neck...

I've had it for four years now and no remission ever. sigh Did clonazepam helped calm the low drone/humming? Interesting. Thanx for the link. I'll take a look at it. Once...

How long did you have it? Thanks I will try that! No he hadn't done that. However that could very well be the problem. I am at bit under underweight so I guess I should start gainning some kilos, and hope it might help. Did you have this humming sound as well when you had the patulous...

Hello, Ben. When you say "acoustic incindent, may I ask what exactly happened as in what was the source of sound? I just want to imagine what sounds that can unexpectedly occur are dangerous. Thanks.

May not be the same what you have but I've had drone/engine noise for 5 years now, started with cold. Hissing for me started few years ago as a new sound in my "until then" healthy ear, thanks to Zoloft! T must have been created in hell!

Computer-automated tinnitus assessment: noise-band matching, maskability, and residual inhibition From the link that I gave in post #15 above. I would spend some time reading that article and the included reference studies and their references at the bottom for more types of treatment. "Some...

I don’t know how much more of this I can take. Tinnitus since this past July. I never was able to mask as it competes with fans and anything I try to mask it. 2 months constant daily spikes of loud screeching in my left ear accompanied by what sounds like a pit of electric snakes hissing. Then...

Hi I hear a low humming when my house is quiet which I thought was an electric motor noise from neighbours. I use an Android frequency generator app and a Bose speaker to generate a background noise of about 52-56 hertz at a low level which I find masks the tinnitus. I also have an app which...

1. Who knows! 2. Not my case. 3. I'm not sure. But when my low drone/humming started I had a bout of allergies. Now after 4 years the low humming is still here AND that's after taking allergy shots for 2 years. 4. Yes, exactly the same. I hope it goes away for you and me both. The...

Hi Lana. Yes I get a low humming as well. My main tinnitus started a couple of months ago and it's a loud high pitched whistle. Over the last few weeks though I've started to get a low hum on and off. It's a bit like having a beehive in my head. Unlike my other sound, I only really notice the...

Hi Everyone, I'm so glad to have found this forum. My heart goes out to everyone who is currently having difficulty coping with tinnitus. I'm hoping that in time I'll gradually habituate and find this easier to deal with. My tinnitus is very low pitched, a humming sound with occasional extreme...

@Mumtobe I had a low humming noise exactly one month after my twins were born. Fortunately, it went on and off for a week, and it hasn't been back since. Unfortunately, it was replaced by a higher pitched sound that has taken up residence in my head. I think this humming was more mechanical -...

Hi This is a short account of something I noticed today. I returned back home after some years traveling and my parents home is an oasis of silence. It`s is deprived of sounds except for this little clock that ticks in the background. No cars, no city not even wildlife. Pure silence. So when I...

Yes, I commented. Well, technically i did get a high pitched tone in my right ear, but it disappears and when I can actually hear it, I ignore it because its not loud and its too thin. The low hum is bothering me. And the feeling of vibration.

...I've got noise induced hearing loss from working and playing piano in noisy environments. My tinnitus is frankly insane with tones from low humming below 100 Hz to hissing at 10 kHz with stuff inbetween. When my tinnitus first started I immediately stopped doing noisy stuff and it was only...

...trying anything and everything right now. Vitamins, physical therapy on neck, diet etc. so maybe I'm getting healthier while I search for answers :) Strangely I wake up to very low humming and it modulates up as day progresses. Plugging right ear mutes humming altogether. Best to all...

My high-pitched hissing is not reactive; it's consistent but ironically it doesn't bother me. I habituated to it 25 years ago. On the other hand, the low-pitched hum I also have IS reactive. Even something as simple as talking on the phone will set it off. Listening to music and even brushing...

Does anyone get spikes followed by long periods of relative silence? I normally have a low humming/buzzing in my left ear sometimes with a gentle high pitch intermittently. However walked the dog this morning, came back with a screeching eeeee for approx 20-30 mins and the nothing... relative...

@VickiD, I find the work of Laurence McKenna very useful. Anxiety, fear and reactivity create a vicious circle. Learning to pay less attention to the tinnitus, treating it as just another experience all help in creating a more benign mental/emotional environment. One needs to decouple the...

...which has gone deaf, and an ultra high-pitched ringing on the right ear. The high pitch has been with me over a decade now, and the other low humming is more recent from a sudden hearing loss about 2 years ago. Life was hard at first but the comforting thing is that the body eventually gets...

I've had low humming in my ears on and off for years. Except when I had sudden hearing loss and it stayed in one ear. The humming I believe is a kind of intermittent tinnitus. I thought it was sinus related but last time I had the intermittent hum I did a test of playing that frequency in my...

Do you actually feel the vibration physically? I can literally feel that this is happening in middle ear.

What dose of Mirtazapine and Duloxetine did you take, or are you currently taking?

Hi. I'm 21, female, and I have mild/moderate low frequency hearing loss in both ears. I also have chronic tinnitus, which consists of a hissing/ringing sound (do to noise damage, I used to listen to music with headphones a lot) and at some point I also developed a low pitch humming/sometimes...

It’s been years since I posted anything on here, but I think this little update might offer some hope for people who have been suffering for a long time. For those who don’t know me, I first met the tinnitus monster in 1992, at the tender age of 17. I had attended a rock concert that left me...

Hello everyone I am so glad to have found an active thread on the hum! On the german forums, the majority have given up and the threads are inactive. I have been suffering from low frequency humming for over 7 years - my symptoms are pretty much the same as Ben's. I have tried about...

Thanks for the tip Ben - nice idea! I'm going to give it a go. I've got exactly the same type of tinnitus that everyone has described - low hum, turns off with other bassy sounds or when talking and shaking my head etc. - and would love to get to the bottom of it. I have recently felt a...

Hello and welcome to the forum. There is a Pulsatile Tinnitus subsection here. I would recommend to check out this thread, it is really informative: If You Have Pulsatile Tinnitus, Here's the First Thing You Need to Do to Get Answers and a Diagnosis I also have tinnitus which can be stopped...

Humming, rushing sounds, distorted hearing and hearing loss. Meniere's doesn't always start out with dizziness. I guess you would call it Hydrops at this point if there is a hearing loss, especially a low frequency one.

I also did two little experiments this week. First experiment: The other day, the low pitch humming T was very loud and really getting to me, almost feeling like it was vibrating the side of my face. I inserted one of those blue foam earplugs into my right ear (where the humming seems to be...

Hello @Matchbox. First of all I find interesting the physical aspect you describe, such as the intensification of symptoms after working out. I do get that as well, therefore I stopped working out. The wine humming started 7 days ago. However, I have dealt with distortions for more than 2.5-3...

Hi , I have had a bad chest infection and cough over the last few days and have been taking a cough medicine - decongestant every 6 hours. I have noticed that my tinnitus is definitely reduced from its normal high pitched squeal to a low level humming in my left ear only. Has anybody got any...

My ears are fine. Nothing to see. But she told me because i have a nosecold everything is swollen and it wil take a couple of weeks to settle down. I really hope so want this low humming sounds is driving me crazy. Is there a change that it will go away?

Low frequency is not always sensorineural and can be due to middle ear muscles vibrating/being lame, like the tensor tympani. Your ear fullness indicates it could be this, because middle ear muscles can affect ear pressure as they can interfere with the correct functioning of the eustacian...

I get this too, and it's really loud if I set my fan to medium, so I keep it at low or high. Dryer, vents, fridges and some music cause a loud whistle or humming. It's louder then the source sound, especially the dryer, I've had it for a few years and it is quiet, but now I hear a really loud...

I've had a loud, low-pitched hum since 1996. It started from out of the blue. I saw tons of doctors and had many tests performed including 3 MRI's. Everything came back normal. My hearing is also fine. The humming is mainly in my right ear, but I can also feel it engulf my entire head. It's...

...I provide below a link of his discussion of tinnitus with William Shatner. He seems to have handled his tinnitus ringing well. Also, if there is not enough response here, you can do a search on 'low hum' and there should be plenty prior discussions on low humming tinnitus. Take care. God...

Update. Noticing patterns in tinnitus now. When I wake up the hum is very low, easy to ignore. This wasn’t always the case. The volume use to be the same regardless of the time of the day now I have different intensities. When I come back from work or a walk it sounds like an engine. Not...

I have a very similar sound, unilateral, left ear, very low humming/engine noise, which stops if I cover my ears, or put my finger in it. For me it does not stop if I plug my ear. Weird, isn't it? It also often feels like a physical feeling, like the left side of my head was vibrating...

Oh man, that's awesome! Hope things continue to improve! What sort of humming did you have by the way? For most of my life I had a low/deep hum in my head, didn't bother me at all either because I was so habituated to it, it went away when I got my tinnitus though.

I'm sorry to hear it and a bit in the same boat. I got a low humming sound 2 weeks ago and it is really unpleasant to hear. It also increases intensity randomly and nobody has answers. Do you hear the hum when you plug your ears? I can't. I hope it'll all work out for us eventually.

The last time I checked the frequency it was 15000 khz. My tinnitus just melts with that tone and I can't hear it. I also have that low humming pulsating sound which I only hear when I go to bed. It dissapeared for some time but it came back recently :eek: Hang in there my friends! :love:

I can't wait to throw all of our cacophony of combined tinnituses (is that a word) at Shore's device to see how well the device holds up 'in the wild'. Our low frequency humming tinnitus that ramps up with high pitched noise like running water, our tinnitus that sounds like a ticking clock, our...

I have ultra high pitched, normal pitched, shrill and very low humming tinnitus. So that means I have almost 5 different tones. You have to hear inside of my head. I have my T in both ears and in the head. Oh, almost forgot to mention. I also have some pulsatile T in my right ear.

Yes low sounds feel like humming / rumbling in the affected ear

The good thing is that I have lost the stress and anxiety with my tinnitus, it just sounds more annoying, more intense than usual? I did also notice a very low humming Morse code noise as well last night, oh well it's getting boring, good to listen to a different sound anyway, mix it up a little!

Hi Gin, Seems like ive got similar thing to you, its been going for about two weeks. A low humming sound in left ear that doesnt stop. I can hear it go away when i talk or hum or if other people talk at a certain volume, or if a plane flies over, but then it comes back straight away. The really...

I don't think he has any idea what's going on, LOL. Lots of "hmmm, that's interesting" comments. I had a full hearing test with bone conduction as well. Audiologist said my left ear was the "best" ear she's tested in quite some time. My "official" audiogram had low frequency in my right ear...

...pitched electronic ring in my right ear, along with the low intrusive hum in the left ear. The reality is I can ignore the high pitch T, but the low humming is just unbearable. if you don't have the headzaps, you can mask it better. For me it subsided so im confident it will for you too. Hugs. :)

NR? Wow you're just another person with many many sounds. Nice to meet you :)

@OnceUponaTime I've had it for a month and a half now. The volume has subsided significantly. While i was on the medicine that i think gave me the T, the humming was unbearable. Thank you for the tips, low sounds do mask the sound itself but not the eardrum flutters. Now, its much better, but...
