"The HUM", a persistent Low Frequency Noise

I never had this hum until I got Covid the second time. I am also vaccinated as well. I notice that as I was coming off of my fever this time my ears acted like they was full of something, was hard to hear out of both ears. I did ear wax treatments with no luck. I never got any wax or waxy substance from my ears. Now I hear this pump running all the time. I can actually feel the vibrating when I hear the hum. I got Covid at thanksgiving 2020 and the second time around Dec 20 2021. Being able to feel the hum is what’s so weird. It’s driving me nuts. Also I am a 54 year old male, overweight because I love pizza. I work in the rail industry where souse is everywhere

Hi Blown503. I can imagine the constant hum is driving you nuts. Sometimes medications can contribute to tinnitus. Post-COVID is known to be a contributor too.

@scottk @davidnewman @nurseheadakes may have some ideas to share with you on coping with the vibrating and low hum.

Blown have you consulted an ENT or hearing specialist?
