Possible hearing problem?
-
Hi everyone. I am curious about something that has to do with our hearing/mind.
If you press/cover both your ears with your palms, will you hear an endless "yin" sound that has no beginning and no end?
The strange part is that the sound is always there but our mind seldom notice it.
For me, the sound became more prominent when I am trying to rest my mind.
Does it happen to you as well? -
We dun really notice it unless there is absolute silence and also becos of the noise coming from our surroundings...
I have it too... Actually, i think everyone has it!

I don't have it but maybe because one of my ear drums has some damage to it.Originally posted by SoulDivine:Hi everyone. I am curious about something that has to do with our hearing/mind.

From the way I see it, everybody should be able to hear the sound when they press their ears tightly. I guess Ito_^ is a special case.

I have it. Previously went for 2 operations to clear my ear passage.. and subsequently I suffer from occasional bouts of labyrinthitis, an infection of the inner ear. The "yin"-ning sound gets very loud each time.. it's better these days.
The ear specialist I saw at the time told me the sound is caused by air passing thru the small holes in your eardrum, infections, or wax blocking the ears. He said tittinus is mostly harmless itself, it's only a symptom.. most notedly he said this - hearing problems are usually caused by wear and tear o the eardrum (that's why u lose hearing as u grow older), but with loud earphone/headphone usage or prolonged exposure to loud deep sounds, the process speeds up dramatically.. he singled out earphones with deep bass sound, and/or the ear bud designs that keep noise out, as the worse offenders..
