A low hum in N18 2QR London UK
Humming sound, like a motor of some kind working loudly in the background Doctor told me I was anxious/stressed and the sound was coming from my head, specially because I could hear louder at night and I needed to relax. I have started a bedtime routine with meditation, essential oil, etc and started therapy for stress and anxiety, and to be honest I am good... I am sure it's not me, I really can hear and feel a LOUD humming noise no one else can. So maybe you should ask if people searched for therapy to manage stress or something.
