Question

I accidentally used xylometazoline hydrochloride nasal spray in my ear instead of my nose. I'm really worried about what might happen. Can you tell me if this is dangerous or if there are any steps I should take now?

Question

I'm feeling this weird vacuum sensation in my left ear, and it's like my hearing's kinda off on that side. I tried using an earbud to see if there's anything blocking it, but there was nothing. I even put some warm oil in there, hoping it would help, but it's still not getting better. What could be going on?

Question

I'm a bit worried because last night while I was eating my meal of rice and fish, my mum brought home takeout from Hardee's. I couldn't resist and took a big bite of the burger along with a spoonful of rice, and soon after, I felt pain in my throat. Do you think this could be something serious, or maybe just a reaction to eating different things together?
