If you’re still here, did it get progressively louder? Or the same thing on and off over 20 years. Did you have lots of noise exposure in your life?

Hello, can you please get in touch with me. Really curious on your info on TTTS. Does hearing bass or any low frequency type of vibration set it off? Does wearing an earplug? Does talking/humming stop it? Where did you hear TTTS could cause low humming, vibrating sound?

In addition to my ultra-high reactive tinnitus, I've recently discovered some kind of reaction to certain low frequencies, e.g. the loud radiator in my new apartment. When the fan kicks on, it hums at E flat (approx 155 Hz), plus a bit of an octave-down undertone (half that), and after too much...

What's up with this low humming sound that comes and goes for many of us? Was gone for like 6 months, now back in bass thump city.

Just something I'm doing at night that may help other people. Sleep on your arm (see image below for illustration). I'll explain (bear with me as it is a bit hard to explain and it sounds a bit loco but it works). Most people with low frequency tinnitus can stop the humming by putting a...

Een goedendag uit het koude Noorden, @Ben Winders :) Low humming as a byproduct of your 4 kHz dip? Wow, that would be a hell of an interesting side effect. I don't think it's that likely :D There's only one particular study (see Sereda et al., 2015) that suggests that the tinnitus frequency...

I HATE humming and low thumps more than any other sound. I'll take the ee or a hiss anyday. I literally remember when I was better hearing static in both ears in silence thinking... you know... this is just static... it's peaceful actually. The low bass crap is bs.

...damage that is causing our other tinnitus and hyperacusis. Dr. De Ridder and all the other specialists have no clue what is causing the low humming tinnitus, but congestion and inflammation probably is not it (unless you are very, very lucky). Search for "low frequency tinnitus" on this...

Do you still have the low hum in both ears? You said your pulsatile tinnitus was eliminated by Tenotomy, correct?

...The tinnitus itself started on the 6th day, but my doctor and I weren't sure it was because of olanzapine. The sound was a VERY LOW humming tone, like a car engine outside the house (though it wasn't a very loud tone, from my research other people have it much worse volume wise)...

Hey, a few questions for you regarding your low hum! What kind of level of hearing loss do you have and at what frequency? Is you hum around the same frequency or below 100 Hz? Does it cut in and out with other low sounds or is it constant no matter what?

I'm another one with low humming after Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. I told two doctors. They thought I was wrong and it couldn't happen. Looks like they should have been giving me steroids. Ah well. My faith in Doctors is well and truly lost.

The pain is gone, but now I have a low humming sound. I'm losing my mind.

...to sound. I had low frequency deafness in the right ear (why not the left I don't know). The right ear would occasionally get the low humming tinnitus which lasted for a few seconds (at most 30 seconds). Both ears suffer the sound of the ocean, constantly but it is the low hum that is...

If it's any consolation, I too have the low end that comes and goes, and goes away when shaking my head or the right noise frequency cuts it out. Humming or talking stops it but it returns instantly when I sstop. Frustrating but comforting that we all have this exact same thing. Clearly there's...

I have it too in my right ear. It’ll get louder if I tap on the affected ear.

Hey felau, did you ever find a cause of fix to your low end humming?

My tinnitus is (or was) also a low humming, but nothing stops it.

Do you mean a passive silicone earplug or an active one (emitting sound)? In the second case I am afraid to irritate continuously my ear nerves. I am convinced both my hissing and low humming come from branches of facial nerve which is irritated.

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...

Well, my low humming vibrating noise is back from hell after being in remission for almost a year. Only in left ear. Yesterday it was not that bad, I could sleep some hours with Clonazepam, didn't hear it in the morning, then it came back and now it sucks. But what I don't understand and maybe...

What's it sound like? Especially in the morning is a big question of mine. Ringing? Seashellish? Low humming? Can't they offer you endolymphatic shunts if nothing else is working to at least keep you from going deaf? Do you have vertigo or just unsteady? Is the tinnitus in both ears?

After a long car ride or flight I notice my low frequency humming is sometimes suppressed for a day or two - do you think that means damage is being done / tinnitus will be made worse? I've been wondering that for a while now - I need to drive and fly for work so I've started wearing earplugs...

Welcome to the forum. There may not be enough readership in the Introduction to respond to your question about low humming tinnitus. But this has been discussed frequently in the past. You can do a search such as this link below and get much needed info about low humming tinnitus. Good luck. God...

I don't know how exactly others' sound like, mine sounds like a mix of a washing machine, a foghorn and a timpani drum with a humming/buzzing quality to it, hard to explain. Mine is situated in the left ear clearly, but it wandered for a couple of days to my right ear last fall. I don't hear it...

@Frayact, sorry to hear that the humming is bothering you so much. That’s good it goes away for years at a time and let’s hope it does again soon. Ya, it’s the feeling aspects that make my tinnitus so bad. If the high frequency stuff was just sounds and not physical feelings, too, I’d be okay...

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...

In terms of coming and going, yes. The bizarre thing is that I only noticed it post-stapedotomy. It could have been there pre-stapedotomy too, just covered by the pre-op tinnitus (it used to cover a wider range of frequencies) and thus, not as noticeable. Now, there aren't that many tests that...

Yes I had the same since early March that I ended up low humming tinnitus in my good ear after a cold which probably will never go away ☹️

Hey guys. Just been getting some more new unwelcome T joining the orchestra in my head, this time a low humming noise in my head that came out of the blue. Since then although the T itself is quiet, I hear it noticeably humming over certain low frequency noises, such as road noise when I'm...

Welcome to the forum. I understand what you are experiencing as I have quite similar tinnitus, a high pitched one and a low humming rumbling one like from a jet engine. I have my high pitched one probably from stress or from loud noise exposure (trying to fix a faulty smoke alarm without wearing...

Out of curiosity, has your eustachian tube been evaluated?

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...

...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...

Was reading that low humming can come from a constricted cervical artery near the mastoid.

What do you use to mask the low humming? have you habituated to it?

Middle ear myoclonus is clicking tho isnt it? The videos I saw of that are not even close to low humming.

Thank you for your thoughts! I'm definitely moving soon. It's 24/7 humming, well not exact. It usually dies down around 12 am.

@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...

Tinnitus is unpredictable. It can improve, worsen, change pitch, etc. For some people even what they eat, the exercise they do, etc can have an impact on tinnitus.

I had acoustic incident in April - 4 weeks later I woke up with the low humming tinnitus that you describe in my right ear. First 3 weeks were dreadful. After a while I started noticing how this beast behaves and indeed: it stops when people were talking to me, took a long car ride to hospital...

...I did the MRI of neck, TMJ and brain. Neck MRI showed early spondylosis due to bad posture. Not sure if that is the cause. Before this low humming started, I had muffled hearing for couple of weeks. Based on the symptoms doctor suspected the ETD but my eardrum and all the reports were normal...

Can the low humming come from you neck? Somethimes i feel like there is a strap around my neck/head and somewone is pulling hard on it. Still have the low humming, somethimes its loud en when someone is talking to loud or slam the door a feel a vibration in my ear. My ears are clicking when...

Hey, Yes definitely with fan sounds. Ie. low humming noises.

@GregCA : Thank you for the info. R u still suffering from T? Mine is a low humming...

When you press your palm against your ear, you don’t hear a low roar? Like the ocean? That’s what I mean by vibration.

I have 2 different high pitched ones, one in each ear, and a low humming in both.

I have two low frequency hums that I hear when it's quiet, loud high frequency ringing/hissing that I hear 98% of the time, and middle tones that multiply when I turn over in bed. Trust me when I say the low humming is the least of my worries.

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...

What’s this seashell you talking about? Got a noise clip?

...neurons in the DCN where somatosensory input occurs too. I can intensify my tinnitus by any jaw movement or lip movement or by pressing on my face. I also developed bilateral low humming after Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. On top of that I have a pulsatile hiss. Not pleasant. Hope yours...

I have forward head posture and straightened lordosis. Very, very rarely my ears are slightly clogged without any apparent reason, but I'm not sure I would even notice if I wasn't focusing all the time on my ears. On the other hand, before the penultimate bout of the low drone (mine is not...

Hello, i am in the EXACT same situation with the low humming like you... Did you found any solution yet?? Thank you Antony

...super loud but I put resonator in the muffle so it has become lot quieter. It's still around 70-75 dB. Do you guys think it's too loud? I avoid ALL loud places but I am really into cars and I can't imagine giving up this car. Again not too loud but it has very low humming noise like...

No. I planned to get a HRCT, then postponed due to COVID-19. I went to quite some ENTs and they told me that it might be otosclerosis, but my hearing loss is too little to benefit from a surgery. Also, I think my low hum can be atypical MEM or middle ear related. I don't think that otosclerosis...

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...

Will this device work for people who have mild/moderate low frequency hearing loss? I have a hissing/ringing that is caused by noise damage but I also have a very low pitch droning/humming that I think is caused by low frequency loss. At the moment, it bothers me much more than the high pitch noise.

Interesting. The low hum is very loud and disturbing to me. It engulfs my whole head like if I'm inside a wind tunnel and I can hear it all day not just at bed time. :(

This is a total rant and I'm disorganized so I'm sorry Hi, I've had the usual high-pitched hear-over-everything scream that a lot of y'all have for 2 years now, along with moderate to severe hyperacusis and EXTREMELY reactive tinnitus to noise, medication, and exercise. Two months ago I took 2...

I have this noise too, and I’m a mum. Actually I have two low humming sounds together with my high pitch noises. It’s making me worried. I just hope they will go away :(
