I recently got into a fight and ended up being slapped really hard, like twice or thrice on the left side of my face, near my ear and cheek, and close to my eye area. Right after, I had some bleeding inside my mouth, probably from biting down with my teeth. The next morning, I noticed a ringing in my ear, but there wasn't any pain. I'm struggling to hear as well out of that ear compared to the other one. There's also some swelling on my face. I'm guessing my hearing is around 50 to 60 percent, but it's just a rough estimate. Should I be worried about this? What do you think is going on with my ear and hearing?

View allI've been feeling like there's something stuck in my throat for a few days now. It's not painful or hard to swallow, just kind of uncomfortable. I took a look and saw a small bump, like 1 cm or maybe smaller, at the back of my tongue. I can also see my epiglottis and my uvula seems to be touching it. Is this something I should be worried about? It's been four days with this sensation, and I'm not sure what to do.
Consult an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist to evaluate the bump on the back of your tongue and the uneasy feeling of something stuck in your throat

I've been dealing with this heavy feeling in my left eye and the area around it for the past six months and they're often teary. I already saw an eye specialist but they said everything's fine with my eye. Then I went to an ENT and found out it's sinusitis. I'm really curious, can sinusitis really affect eyes like this? And what can I do to cope with it?
Yes, sinusitis can affect the eyes, causing symptoms like heaviness, teary eyes, and pressure around the eyes due to inflammation in the sinus cavities. To cope, treatment may include decongestants, nasal sprays, steam inhalation, and possibly antibiotics if an infection is present. Consult your ENT specialist for further management.
