My AirPod is buzzing after I dropped it into water by accident.

So I dropped my right AirPod into water and i put it in rice. It seemed fine for a while but a few days later, that AirPod would make a buzzing static noise the higher the Sound frequency. It also happens when there are louder noises around me. Can anyone please help me?!?! I got them less than a year ago but they don’t have a warranty.

Right AirPod buzzing/crackling My Right AirPod is buzzing/crackling now. It didn’t get wet and nothing changed other than the fact that I can’t hear very well out of my right AirPod

static and buzz noise in one airpod I put in both of my airpods and the left airpod worked normally but the right airpod had a static/buzz noise and wouldnt play any music or sound other than the buzzing, it says that both airpods are fully charged and so is the airpod case. i blew into in the airpod to make sure there was no water or anything that might be causing that noise, and it still didn’t work (i don’t think it would be water damage because they were in the case with no water around) they're also clean and have no ear wax and dirt, so I’m not sure what’s causing this problem, because both pods were perfectly fine 10 hours ago. thank you

Left airpod pro sounds terrible I have had my Airpods pro for just over a year. The left one started buzzing every once in a while about 6 months ago. Now it is so bad I cannot even use it. I have been super careful with these. Never got wet or anything close. Any advice?
