I've had some interesting experiences... I was diagnosed with a middle ear infection last week. The humming promptly completely disappeared, for a little over a week. Due to the infection I then had a high-pitched tinnitus, so not much better. Now that the inflammation is subsiding, the humming...

If I drop my head down until my it is upside down, I get a loud hum and my ears feel very full. Is this normal? Is this a T thing, or maybe something that people without T would experience? I have been unsure since the onset of my T if my ears are plugged or just feel that way. Thx Telis

From what?

I could live with my high frequency crickets, I would not even complain about those. It is the low humming drone sound that destroys me.

It sounds like we are very similar. I can tell you that it will get better. I still hear it at nine months out, but it doesn’t affect me the same way anymore. It’s hard when setbacks happen, and they might even after you see progress. That’s okay. For me, it took about five months before I...

Hello everyone! In the middle of December, I came down with an upper respiratory infection. My ears got all clogged. On the 23rd, a low humming sound started. I went to an urgent care center to confirm see if I had an infection. As t turned out my ears were not infected, but just filled...

Mine acts very similarly. I developed it after a systemic infection that invaded my ears. The only other quirk mine has is this: when I am in a completely silent room with no environmental noise, it is a steady tone every time. As soon as I leave that room and hear road noise, the TV, people...

...only ear that had tinnitus. I started to feel better until I got a head cold around memorial day. Now my right ear is plugged and has a low humming sound. I'm scared because this was my good ear. The ENT said it could just be ETD because of the cold. He said he doesn't know if it's going to...

Hello, I'm new here and new to tinnitus. 6 weeks ago my left ear felt blocked and earache, I also felt a bit flu like, taking paracetamol made me feel better so went to GP who said my ears were completely compacted with wax. Had them syringed and all symptoms went away. A week later I had a...

I have been applying a finger tip amount of Diclofenac Sodium 1% gel to the condylar process just below both ears and rubbing it in twice daily. I have only been doing this for a few days but I have found that my episodic raging tinnitus has been reduced to a tolerable humming. I’ll follow up...

It feels like my head is under water. Also can't hear low tones in my right ear and am getting loud humming and rumbling. Also can't sleep.

Hi everyone! My low hum tinnitus after an upper respitory virus continues. Quick background: mid December, I started waking with plugged ears, but it would always get better as the day went on. Then, it got bad right before Christmas, the urgent care dr diagnosed fluid in ears, but no...

Hi Canyonmom, Just wondering if you currently still have the low-frequency hum? I'm nearing 3 months of it being here pretty much 24/7, unilaterally (left ear). Also dealing with aural fullness and hyperacusis but it's the humming tinnitus that worries me most. I pray every day that it will...

Hey Kriszti, Just wondering if you currently still have the low-frequency hum? I'm nearing 3 months of it being here pretty much 24/7, unilaterally (left ear). Also dealing with aural fullness and hyperacusis but it's the humming tinnitus that worries me most. I pray every day that it will...

Sure. This sounds a lot like how I was for a long time. I can still have bad periods where this may show up in some form, even six years down the road, but most of the time I’m good. Even in those periods, when I get those “Morse code” sounds or whatever you may call them on top of other...

Hi Guys, I have had some high pitched tinnitus for years which I habituated too. Recently on the day of the birth of my first child I went to bed and woke up the next day with my head humming a very low bass noise. Like 75 HZ - 100 HZ low. My hearing has changed although still shows as ok...

Low frequency humming lasted 8 days I’ve been clearing my sinuses and it’s slowly leaving again, Thankfully

hello all. I'm new here but recently started suffering from a low pitched form of tinnitus that my ENT thinks is related to eustacian tube dysfunction. It all started after I had been feeling dizzy and nauseous (as well as super stressed with work and a little sad about some unrelated things...

I also find that lying down always brings back the low-frequency tinnitus. Even though my hum-free days unfortunately occur less and less frequently, I always notice that the quiet phases occur during the day and the humming then returns overnight. As soon as I get up, it gradually disappears...

I got the same kind of low-frequency humming last weekend. Actually, I have had quite loud tinnitus at 10-12 kHz for almost 3 years, but this humming is something new. When I plug my ears - it disappears. It also becomes less loud when I wear my headphones with cushions. I even feel vibration...

No - tinnitus that can be masked by cicadas/crickets is not low frequency tinnitus. I need a low humming noise to mask my low frequency tinnitus.

I have low frequency, low humming, buzzing tinnitus for a week and it's very loud. I got prescribed Nootropil (Piracetam) and Betarevin (Betahistine) for circulation. The doctors told me that the protocol contains IV infusions of blood enhancers, but they would not suggest it for me, because my...

In the past two weeks I have started to lose the low end of my hearing and have developed low humming and droning noises that come and go. They are not debilitating, just annoying and ominous. They have continued to to get worse as time goes on; I had a loud MRI around a month ago and a...

It's funny that my stupid ears are trying very hard to make me commit suicide. Every time I habituate to a sound, a new sound appears in my ears. Recently a motor sound with a physical vibration sensation was added to the mix in my left ear, again for no apparent reason. I already had...

Low humming and vibrations are killing me with anxiety. I just can't go through this again :'(

The humming is low frequency tinnitus. I doubt it’s vascular. I have low frequency hearing loss and it sounds like a refrigerator or engine.

This is to add 'a beginning' to my tinnitus story. It was 16 years ago this week that my tinnitus began suddenly. One week before my onset, I had gotten sick. After a day, I felt better overall but then I started to experience sound distortion, dizziness and fullness in my right ear. I saw my...

Hi, I have several sounds in both ears combined - the usual Morse Code;tinkling bells, etc. But I also have an usual case with my right ear. The ear hums - getting louder if exposed to loud noise, etc, before returning to its base level. But if I stick my finger into that ear then I can no...

I had high pitch tinnitus in both ears for more than 5 years, probably for a hearing trauma (playing bass at high volumes). After this much time, I was kind of used to it, and it didn't really bother me that much. I kept using hear protections on noisy places and always used headphones at low...

Are you taking anything or doing anything to try and mitigate the humming sound or make it more liveable? My low humming mostly stays away if I turn on low humming sound (YouTube is full of deep space sounds). It's been a while since I applied this technique (I m sleeping mostly in silence...

The low humming is driving me crazy, it's constant and reverberating like someone blowing the low note of a flute in your head 24/7, I don't know how I am going to survive this.

Is there any data in the research paper that shows what kinds of tinnitus cases Dr. Shore's device has been tried on? Was there at least 1 patient in there that had low frequency humming instead of the more typical high pitched eeee/hissing? I've said this before but I can't wait for all of us...

I have 2 tinnitus noises in the same ear, a hiss that turns in to a intense buzz in a quiet room, and a low frequency hum around 100 Hz or less that can be stopped when I shake my head (as though saying "no") rapidly or if a airplane flies overhead FAR in the distance, so far it is barely even...

I've had this since 2014. What helps me is having other low humming appliances running in the background. Ex. Air purifiers, fish tanks, air humidifier and de-humidifiers (change according to season) fans, low humming air conditioners. Hope this helps. Dont give up on your studies. You are...

Hello everyone, this is my first time posting. I will try to make this as brief as possible. In October 2024, I experienced lower-frequency hearing loss following an ear infection. After treatment, the hearing loss is now only mild, but I have been left with multi-tonal, reactive tinnitus. I...

Left/worst ear was 99% silent for the 1st time last night. If it wasn't for this low humming in the right ear it would have been perfect...

I have the low buzzing-humming-vibrating kind of tinnitus "just" for a week. I know it's really early on to predict anything and I'm at early stages, and maybe my threshold is pretty low, but I feel like it's debilitating. I haven't slept more than 2 hours a night. I think that I will give up...

I think we have similar tinnitus. Mine sounds like a subwoofer in the distance, pulsing. It also worsens after driving short distances, but it disappears after long drives. It has been really tough. I am still in the acute phase and hoping to manage it. I just wanted to let you know that you are...

Welcome to the forum. Here, we understand the struggles you are having with tinnitus, as many of us have similar issues. Like you, I have had an ultra high-pitched tinnitus for more than 10 years, and about 2 years ago, a new loud low-frequency jet-engine humming ringing appeared in my left...

...like that of a newborn baby (according to all doctors), apart from a 20 dB dip around 4000 Hz. As you know my main tinnitus monster is a low humming drone, so I probably/logically have hearing loss at a very low frequency. Since you have that fun thing too, I wonder if you agree that a...

Low-freguency humming that comes and goes, is it a good or bad thing lol

I wanted to ask a general question about the low hum tinnitus. It seems like it’s been a bit more prominent now since I got a sinus infection and cold last year. Being in a room with the ceiling fan used to mask it, but not anymore. I used to be able to clear my ears using the Valsalva maneuver...

It does not seem odd if you search for low frequency humming tinnitus on this forum, you'll find lots of friends.

“Sound waves from the air conditioning” Yes, 100%. There’s definitely something about those sound waves and vibrations. I notice that when I’m in bed it almost always turns into a steady hum. The same thing happens after I get out of a vehicle. Do head movements pause or change it? For me...

Hello everyone, I hope you’re all ok today. I was just hoping for some advice but more importantly some understanding. I’ve tried to explain my problem to friends and family but they just don’t get it. I mean, that’s a good thing, I wouldn’t want them to have to experience this. Basically I...

I’m the same. I pray for all of us here.

...fluid causing feeling of fullness, or Meniere's. If you don't have vertigo, then it may not be for that. However many others have posted that they have low humming tinnitus but not due to Meniere's. Blood pressure issue can cause this low humming too and some eventually develop pulsatile...

Sorry to hear you’ve been struggling for so long. I’m still struggling too. I’m getting married this year and I’m currently a medical student. I’ve barely gotten through this year, and there have been times when I’ve left home and wanted to call everything off. I’m just wondering how you cope...

Aaand the low humming is back. Lord help me. :cry: I can't take this again. Do you think it will be permanent? I was at the audiologist and she gave me an audiometry test and my hearing came back perfect. But the flipping low humming will be the death of me.

I see you have allergies listed as a cause, and with allergies in the air in the northern Mountain West, I have to wonder if the sinus pressure contributes to the low humming sound.

My tinnitus is similar, I have loud tonal tinnitus in my right ear, chronic 24/7 and on top of that I have a static "hissing" in my right ear that I can modulate with my jaw, and SCM muscles. The hissing is synchronized with my heart beat and I can stop the hissing my protruding my mandible or...

Yes, you are absolutely right, I know that and worded it wrongly. I don't rule it out, but I don't really understand how a fixed stapes would cause low vibrating humming every year for a 2-3 week period (while it is still on/off, one day it's there, the next it's absent.). This has been going on...
