Question 1

I'm really worried because I've been having this pain in my left ear and the area around it, and it feels like my head's really heavy on the left side, almost numb sometimes. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?

Accepted Answer

Possible Symptoms*

If your child has ingested a small particle, they may experience:

- Nausea and vomiting
- Diarrhea or abdominal pain
- Dizziness or lethargy
- Headache

*Medical Attention*

Even if your child seems fine, it's crucial to consult a doctor. Take your child to:

1. *Nearest pediatric emergency department*
2. *Local hospital with a pediatric ward*

The doctor may:

1. *Monitor your child's vital signs*
2. *Perform a physical examination*
3. *Run some tests* (e.g., blood tests)
4. *Provide supportive care* (e.g., hydration, anti-nausea medication)

*Prevention*

To avoid such accidents in the future:

1. *Keep medications out of reach*
2. *Store medications in child-resistant containers*
3. *Supervise your child closely* when taking medications

Stay calm and seek medical attention immediately. The healthcare team will assess your child's condition and provide guidance on the next steps.

Question 2

I'm experiencing some pain and swelling right in front of my tragus, kind of towards my face. I've tried using an ear wax and infection solution, but it's not helping. Also, I'm having these small feverish spells. What could this be, and what should I do?

Accepted Answer

Could indicate an infection in the ear or surrounding area. I recommend you use an antibiotic ear drop like Ciprodex (ciprofloxacindexamethasone) to help with the infection. Additionally, you can take ibuprofen for pain and fever relief. However, it is important to see a doctor for a proper evaluation and treatment plan.

Question 3

I'm a 27-year-old male nurse working in the surgery OT and I've had chronic pharyngitis for 3 months now. I've tried meds like tab Lnz, tab Dexa, and tab Razo D but nothing seems to work. Lately, I've been getting this weird chest pain right in the center every morning and it's making me really worried what could be going on?
