I'm having this issue where water sometimes comes out of my left ear. It's been happening on and off for about two years now. I can't figure out why. The water has a really bad smell, and it's pretty gross. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?

I'm a woman in my mid-twenties, about to turn 26, and I'm weighing around 112 pounds. I went to see my ENT for some allergy concerns and out of nowhere, he suggested I get a tonsillectomy. He mentioned that my tonsils are pretty large and he's worried that if I ever gain weight when I'm older, it might lead to sleep apnea. I am of Asian descent, and I've been told that makes me more prone to sleep apnea. Honestly, I don't have any recurring throat issues, just some snoring, and the only time I had throat problems was back in 2010 with a few bouts of strep throat but nothing since then. He thinks I should have them removed now since recovery might be easier while I'm young. Do you think I should go ahead and get my tonsils out? Does all this sound like a good enough reason to proceed with the surgery?

Yes. In my opinion. You should go ahead with the tonsillectomy.

I'm a bit worried about my right ear. It's been feeling blocked for almost three weeks now. There's no pain, but it keeps leaking this sticky yellow mucus, and sometimes it pumps out clear fluid too. Not sure what's going on. What could be causing this?

I'm really concerned because I used cotton buds to clean my ears, and now they feel blocked. I went to see a doctor, and instead of cleaning out the wax, they recommended a wax solvent. I've been using it for two days, but my ears still feel the same. Should I be worried about this, or is there something else I should be doing?

in two days the lodged wax would have got dissolved visit your docotor for its removal it will be cleared dont worry.
