A low hum in Yancey, Burnsville

Low frequency throbbing hum. D2 on a piano keyboard with harmonics sub and sup. The hum fully developed after an accidental fall on my back where I sustained compression fractures on L3 and L4. Surgery to fix it was too complicated. I got epidural steroid injection and it didn�t solve the pain part.
