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/

...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...

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...

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...

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.

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...

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...

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!

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...

...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...

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...

I have both a high-pitched hissing and a low-frequency hum. I habituated to the hissing 25 years ago, but the humming still makes me miserable. Unlike the hissing, which is constant and has never stopped since it started on 4/28/96, the humming will sometimes disappear for up to four years (the...

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...

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 -...

Thanks for taking the time to write such a clear response. I did not experience any side effects from Deanxit. It did not take long to have effect on my anxious reaction towards my humming tinnitus. Maybe 1 - 1.5 days. I just have these periods in my life where I lack the energy or the mindset...

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.

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

Good afternoon, fellow sufferers, I developed tinnitus and hyperacusis about a month after my second COVID jab (not saying it was the jab, by the way). It started as a low-pitched hum, like a car speaker playing deep bass. I searched my house and even the surrounding area, trying to find the...

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...

I mentioned this before, but since we are discussing cause again, I think it's still mindblowing to read that: When I wake up in the morning I have two "settings" my low hum puts itself in. After an entire night of not having too much input, it seems my ears need to start up and by the...

No offense but low pitched tinnitus is a different beast than the more common high pitched 'eee' (I have both). There is a chance it will not settle down, like Michael Leigh above says. For me, at least, it has been fluctuating since the start and it still is (as @Joe Cuber mentioned, and this...

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 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...

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 have that humming noise and your experience sounds like mine. Does your hum get loud from time to time or is it stable?

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?

...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...

Hey, thanks for responding. But I had no tinnitus before the sinus infection, and no humming before the Cefalexin. It quite literally overnight caused the humming in my ear 4 months ago and it's still there. Just a constant hmmmm sound. It's really beginning to bother me. I don't have any...

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...

Hi. I have an update to share. As you know, I developed a new noise in October. Low-level humming that has been there ever since. It varies in intensity and just appeared randomly. I am so frightened because yesterday another noise was added to the cacophony of noises I already had. My tinnitus...

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

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.

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 would need an active one, but it would only need to be very low activity. Basically it would be enough if something mechanical would be moving inside the earplug, brushing lightly against my ear canal, just like my finger would. @Christiaan, I'm afraid I have to backpedal on the fact that...

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:

@Ben Winders, it’s OK. I know this is a possibility. When this happened to you, was it caused by any loud sound or new damage? Did it just happen randomly? I’m wondering if steroids would be helpful. Definitely not something I want to take unless absolutely necessary. I had a Tele consult with...

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.

I know it is highly individual, but trust me, there are types of low frequency tinnitus which is awfully hard to cope with. Mine is lower and more hollow than the refrigerator, sounds like thumping, rumbling, foghorn, idling motor, and so loud and vibrating, that it makes me suicidal. It also...

Shaking my head doesn't make a difference but like a lot of other people have said here, having noise constantly on in the background stops the low pitched noise completely. I only have it in my left ear. Only my right ear showed hearing loss on the audiogram but my high pitched tinnitus is...

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!

I'm sorry that you're having ear issues. I have something similar and some of us on the forum do so. If you search for low frequency tinnitus or low frequency hum, you can find some experience. Mine can be stopped by covering the ear with my palm, putting my finger in it, humming, talking...

...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. :)

@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...

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...

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

...air pressure imbalance. After trying various tips, tricks, and hacks on YouTube, nothing helped. A few days later, I started hearing a low humming sound around 50-80 Hz in that same ear. At first, I thought it was generator at a nearby construction site until I was in a quiet spot and the...

Hi all, found this site whilst Googling hum in ears. I am new here and well, it's more about support as nobody not even docs seem to be able to help let alone know anything. Firstly, in 2007 my left ear all of a sudden went deaf totally, it felt like a vacuum effect whilst losing hearing the...

So what's your theory/mechanism whereby steroids cause dysacusis? An autoimmune disorder? I do have a defective adrenal gland, and my hearing got worse with each (2) courses of Prednisone I did. I'm never touching that shit again. It gave me a bunch of low tones too. And now I've got white...

@Phendran, it sounds as if your tinnitus might be somatic-sensory. How is it these days? By the way, I lived in Stockholm for a year. It's a beautiful city.

Anything disturbing cochlear blood supply in theory should hit your lowest frequencies first (they are most vulnerable as they are fed with the smallest capillaries). High frequencies whilst more metabolic get plenty of oxygen, so that damage is usually metabolic (ROS). Similar thing happens...

Hey don't worry or be fearful. I have a low hum myself and so does mother. I went to ENT and everything is perfect. ENT specialist said it is my nerves causing the humming. Look at Julian Cowan Hill videos they are very helpful and inspiring. Hope you are well and we can get through this T and...

I find other low end noise masks it. Silence seems to bring it on.
