I got hit by a ball in my ear a few days ago, and it's been hurting ever since. I can't hear properly from that ear now. Should I be worried, and what should I do about it?

Question

I've had two Tympanoplasty surgeries, one in 2011 that didn't work out and then another in 2014 after having sinus surgery and surgery for a deviated nasal septum. The doctor said back then that I shouldnt swim for the rest of my life because of the ear infections. Its been a few years now and I'm wondering if its still risky to swim or if things might have changed with my ear health?

Question

I've got this pimple or bump on my uvula, and it's really painful when I eat or drink. I'm not sure whether this is something that'll go away on its own or if I should get it checked out. What do you think?

Question

I'm spitting up a little blood when I clear my throat in the mornings. It happens about once a month, and it's not a lot of blood. I dont see any cuts or injuries in my mouth, but my nose is usually pretty congested. Also, my phlegm is kind of yellowish to green. What could this mean? Should I be worried?
