I'm a bit worried because I sneezed this morning and felt something happen in my ear. It wasn't too painful at first, but now the pain has become unbearable tonight. I tried steaming, which made me feel a bit better, but the pain came back. Can you help me figure out what's going on with my ear?

It would be advisable to consult an ENT doctor in this situation. There could have been a perforation of the tympanic membrane (ear drum). There is also a possibility of impacted wax having been dislodged due to the sneeze and causing pain thereafter.

I'm 21 and dealing with a septum deviation towards the right side plus a concha bullosa on the same side. My doctor mentioned surgery, but I'm wondering if it's really necessary. Do you think it's something I should go ahead with?
It is common to undergo surgery for septum deviation and concha bullosa if they are causing symptoms. The surgery is called septoplasty and it helps to correct the deviated septum and concha bullosa. It is usually recommended if you are experiencing difficulty breathing, frequent sinus infections, or other related symptoms. The surgery can improve airflow through the nose and alleviate symptoms. The doctor may also prescribe pain medication and nasal decongestants post-surgery to help with recovery.
