Question

I'm really worried because for the past 8 months I've had this burning feeling in my throat. It always feels tight, like something's stuck in there. It's pretty uncomfortable. Has anyone else experienced this, and should I be concerned? What could be causing these sensations?

Water in the ear can be uncomfortable. Since ear wax drops aren't providing relief, try: - Ear drying drops (e.g., Otoferm) to help evaporate water - Tilt your head to the side and gently pull on the outer ear to help water drain - Use a warm compress or dry towel to help relieve pain and fullness If symptoms persist or worsen, consult an ENT specialist to rule out: - Ear infection - Eardrum damage - Blockage Avoid using cotton swabs (Q-tips) to avoid pushing water further into the ear.
