I'm a 26-year-old and generally in good health, but I've been experiencing blood streaks in my sputum every morning for the past 5 years, especially during the winter or when I catch a cold. I've seen an ENT specialist who mentioned DNS, but I noticed I'm not breathing through my mouth. My X-ray came back normal, and besides a dry and sore throat on those days, there are no other symptoms. What should I be doing about this?

View allI'm a bit worried about something that's been happening for quite a while now. Whenever I chew my food or drink something, I notice this buzzing sound in my right ear. It starts internally and stops about 10-15 seconds after I stop chewing. This has been going on for about 45 months, and I'm wondering what's causing it and if there's a way to stop it. Any insights?
The buzzing sound you're experiencing in your right ear when chewing could be related to Eustachian tube dysfunction, TMJ disorder, or even tinnitus. These conditions are often treatable, but it's important to consult with a healthcare provider, especially if the symptoms persist or worsen. The doctor can help determine the exact cause and recommend the appropriate treatment for you.

I've been feeling a strange moving sensation in my left ear for almost two weeks now, like an insect or something. There's no pain when it happens, but I saw an ENT doctor a few days ago. She checked my ear and said there's no insect, and my eardrums are fine. She diagnosed me with a dislocated jaw and gave me some Vitamin B Complex and pain meds. She mentioned something about the jaw joint needing repair. This all started after I cleaned my ears with cotton buds. Now, my left jaw feels weird, like a toothache, and I also have a small sore near my last teeth. Could this insect-like feeling in my ear be related to the jaw pain? And how do I get rid of this strange crawling sensation?
The ENT doctor you visited seems to have clinched the diagnosis. I suggest you to follow up with same doctor.
