AnomalyVery low, cycling sound, deep in my ears. Like a car/truck idling. Sometimes I thought maybe it was the dishwasher vibrating, but it’s never on when I check. I’m so glad it’s not just me! Dying of curiosity to find out what on earth is the source/ cause. Thank you!

What they reported
First noticed: 2019
Pitch: Under 40hz for sure. Difficult to tell what is coming through the headphones and what is the “hum”
Loudest: During the night
Where: Indoors
Symptoms: Ear discomfort (pain, fullness, throbbing), Insomnia, Sense of vibration, I just hate it. I get very agitated that I can’t find the source or turn it off
Changes with weather: I’m not sure. It’s humid tonight, and it was when I heard it at the beach too. I can’t say for sure. I hear the distant traffic more on hot nights and I looked that up to find there is a scientific explanation.
