I'm feeling a bit worried about some symptoms I've been experiencing, and I could really use your advice. Lately, I've been noticing a pressure in my ears and a popping sound in my eustachian tube whenever I swallow. There's no pain involved, but there's this weird globus sensation in my throat that's painless too. On top of that, my nose feels clogged like it's dripping, and sometimes I get acid reflux. I've already checked for COVID, and the test came back negative, so I'm just curious if all these could be related somehow?

I've had a voice disorder since birth due to a cleft palate, and my speech isn't clear nobody understands me. I've tried speech therapy multiple times but nothing changed. Could there be an underlying vocal issue surgery might fix? I don't want more therapy if it hasn't helped before. What options do I have to improve my voice clarity?
