Static like noise in right ear
I have been hearing static like noise since past 4-5 days in my right ear. The sound is different from the tinnutis static sound. It is very low and more like my hair brushing against a surface but I hear the sound even when my hair is tied up. Ever since lockdown started I have been home and my ears have more than usual build up of wax which I regularly clean using Q-tip. The sound is annoying and breaking away my concentration. I don't hear the sound a lot if I am away from the headrest of the bed or not at all if walking or moving. But when I am lying down the sound intensifies. I stopped listening through earphones few months back and listen to music at minimal noise level. Please let me know what can be done about this. I am already suffering from blepharitis since past few months and this is making me more stressed out. Is it an infection? Will it go away on it's own? Is it something I should be concerned about?
