Hi.
You have got recurrent cold and sneezing and body aches. This causes upper respiratory passages to get inflamed and is transmitted to the middle ear to cause Otitis Media through Eustachian Tubes. This in turn can cause Otitis interna to cause the ringing or Humming sound also called as Tinnitus.
YOu have to get this checked by an ENT Surgeon and he can show your ears that there is no cotton ball so something.
