I'm a bit worried because my ear started hurting yesterday and it feels swollen and painful inside. I've had ear infections before, but this doesn't feel like thatit just feels swollen. I tried to take a video, and it looks like there's something white in my ear. Could this be an infection or something else? Should I be concerned?

View allI'm having this weird issue where my ears make sounds after I sneeze. I've already finished my cold meds, but my nose is still blocked, especially in the mornings. Plus, I have this minor cough that comes and goes. What should I do?
your symptoms seem to be consistent with residual effects from a cold, like nasal congestion and Eustachian tube dysfunction, but if they persist or worsen, its important to seek further medical advice. In the meantime, using saline sprays, staying hydrated, and addressing the congestion with decongestants or steam inhalation should help improve your symptoms.

I've been dealing with nasal congestion and noticed something concerning 48 hours ago. I spit out some phlegm, and there was a tiny bit of red or pink in it. What could this mean? I'm a bit worried.
The presence of a small red or pink particle in your phlegm could indicate a minor nasal bleed or inflammation; however, to rule out any underlying conditions, such as nasal polyps, sinusitis, or a foreign object, consult an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist
