I'm experiencing this weird tik tik sound in my left ear, and it feels like there's air trapped in there. Sometimes the sound happens continuously, and then just stops out of nowhere. Should I be concerned about this? What might be causing it?

the symptoms could be due to a number of reasons. There maybe early nerve damage or the symptoms maybe due to underlying nasal problems like allergies, sinusitis etc.

I'm a bit worried because while I was eating, I accidentally scratched my throat. Now I'm coughing a lot, and my throat feels really itchy. It also hurts whenever I swallow. Do you think this is something serious, or will it just go away on its own? Should I be doing anything specific to help it heal or make the pain go away?

It sounds like you may have developed some irritation in your throat from scratching it while swallowing. To help with the pain and itchiness, you can try using a throat spray like Chloraseptic which contains benzocaine. You can also take an over-the-counter pain reliever like acetaminophen to help with the discomfort. Additionally, sucking on throat lozenges containing menthol or eucalyptus can also provide relief. Make sure to stay hydrated and avoid irritants like smoking or excessive talking. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it's advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.
