Yes, it can go away, but it might not. It will probably get easier to ignore though. By any chance are you in the Midwest in the US? I've had low pitched tinnitus after a cold for nearly 2 months now. I've been to an ENT, had a bunch of tests, and I was told my symptoms "sound like"...

How'd it go?

@Marie Stenhouse I'm learning that Tinnitus and ear issues are complex and crazy. :) what's true for one person isn't true for another. Don't worry just yet. Two weeks after a cold is still within the healing timeframe. What does your tinnitus sound like? Do you have any other ear...

@Dominic1955 Any update? I have the exact same problem...when my ear feels full, my hearing drops, when the fullness dissipates, the hearing comes back. I follow up with my ENT next week, but he didn't seem to know too much about hydrops...just said if I didn't have vertigo, it wasn't an inner...

I'm learning that tinnitus is a crazy thing! Yes, you do have tinnitus...hearing a noise that is not there is tinnitus. Now, could it be caused by Eustachian tube dysfunction? Yes, maybe. I'm sort of in the same boat. I developed a low humming sound during an upper respitory infection. Like...

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...

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...

Hi everyone! I introduced myself a while ago, and explained that I developed a low pitched humming in my right ear after an upper respitory virus that clogged my ears. It's been about a month with ear fullness and humming. Based on Google searches and reading lots of posts here, I suspect I...

@Gin I'm glad your heart doesn't have any problems, but so sad and frustrated for you that you didn't get any answers. :(

Oops, cart before the horse, haha. I need to learn how to edit a post. :)

Thanks, @Gin. I've actually read a lot of your posts and can identify nearly 100% with the hum you describe. (I hope that doesn't sound too creepy!). I don't, however, have much in the way of dizziness (yet?) Yesterday, the hum went away on its own, and it's been gone all morning. I have a...

It's good that the pain is subsiding! Probably the infection (bacterial or viral) starting to clear up. I would definitely start with the University clinic. The dr there should be able to give you some advice and guidance, not only about your ear but also about the health care system. Here...

@joseph Ghass Thanks for the information, I'll check out your protocol thread! It sounds like a pretty healthy way to be eating anyway, ear issues or not. @Frayact did you have an ECOG (electrocochleography)?

@EarInfection When my ears were full, I just went to Urgent Care...do you have something similar? I could be seen right away, and the doctor confirmed that there was no infection by looking in my ears. Most urgent care does see a lot of ear infections and possible infections. The dr didn't...

Hi there! I also had an upper respitory infection that led to fluid getting backed up in my ears and starting a few tinnitus noises (high pitched whistle, low pitched hum). The doctor I saw explained that when your ears are full with fluid it can affect how your brain interprets things...

@danieluk 6 years is a long time! Have the doctors done any testing to help find a cause? Aren't there tests neurotologists can do to check for inner ear pressure/fluid imbalance?

@Frayact did they ever do any sort of test to measure pressure/fluid in your inner ear? I think I'd have to see a neurotologist for that, if the ENT thinks we need to go that route.

@Frayact I will...it's still a week and a half away. I've read too much on here and I've seen that a lot of posters with my exact symptoms (low hum that stops when talking or with other noises) end up with a meniere's or hydrops diagnosis. Those who have a more consistent hum (doesn't stop...

I've only been around here for a week or so, and I so appreciate all of your informative and positive posts! I'm sorry you're not feeling well, and I hope you ears go back to behaving well (or as well as they can!) soon.

@Adam12ver, thank you for your encouragement. I'll check out those videos. @joseph Ghass by detox diet, do you mean restricting sodium? Or another type of diet? @Frayact wow, 20 years!! I'm going crazy after 20 days! Strange coincidence, bu is my humming started on Dec 23...same day yours...

Hi everyone, This is a question for all those suffering from low pitched humming. From what I'm reading online (I know, Dr. Google is not my friend!) it seems like low pitched humming tinnitus is often associated with meniere's. Honestly, I was initially terrified at the thought of the humming...

Buzztone, How have you been feeling lately? Since your T started with an upper respitory infection as mine did, I'm wondering if you've noticed it getting better as the virus runs its course?

Buzztone, that's exactly it! I was out all morning and didn't notice it all...for which I'm thankful! Hopefully it's just a lingering side effect of the virus and it clears for both of us soon!

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...
