I'm having this constant pain in my ear, like right on that little flap part, the tragus. It really hurts, especially when I press on it. I'm worried and not sure what's causing it. What could be going on with my ear?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It sounds like you're experiencing pain in your tragus, which could be due to an infection, inflammation, or even pressure on the area. If the pain persists or worsens, it's a good idea to consult a doctor to rule out any underlying issues like an ear infection or cartilage irritation.

View allI've been dealing with this issue for almost 18 months now. Every month, without fail, I get this right ear pain that spreads down to my shoulder and all the way to my hand. Lately, I found a lump in my neck, right on the ear line under my jaw, and it's on the same side where I feel the pain. I'm unsure if they're linked, but the lump seems to come and go. I've tried muscle relaxants; they help, but regular painkillers don't seem to do much. I'm wondering, what might this be?
That could be ear effusion,visit ENT docotor for evaluation and appropriate treatment,and practice valsalva for better relief.

I had LASIK surgery 3 years ago but now I'm having pain in my left eye and the upper part around my eyebrow. Multiple ophthalmologists say everything looks fine and suggested I see an ENT for possible sinusitis. Could this eye and brow pain actually be from a sinus infection?
Persistent pain post-LASIK may suggest sinus-related issues; an ENT consultation is appropriate for sinusitis evaluation.

Can I still hit the gym with a deviated septum or should I wait until after my laser surgery this year I'm worried it might make breathing harder during workouts
It's generally recommended to wait until after your deviated septum surgery to resume strenuous exercise, like hitting the gym, to allow for proper healing and minimize the risk of complications like bleeding. The severity of the deviation and the type of surgery will influence the recovery timeline, but it's usually best to avoid vigorous activity for at least a few weeks
