I'm having a lot of pain in my right ear because of a cold, but it doesn't feel like it's clogged or anything. My ears look normal but the pain is still there. What could be causing this pain?

Hey, I was cleaning my ear today and I think some cotton got stuck in there. Do you know how I might be able to get it out? Is there any medicine or something I can use for this? Im kinda worried about it.

Visit your ENT doctor immediately to remove it,don't make any attempts by yourself to remove it.

my 3.5 year old has enlarged adenoids and tonsils and the doctor recommended surgery is it safe for a child this young what should I do

It's understandable to be concerned about the safety of surgery for a 3.5-year-old with enlarged adenoids and tonsils. While surgery is generally considered safe, it's crucial to weigh the potential benefits and risks in your child's specific case. A more conservative approach of watchful waiting and medical management until the child is 6-7 years old is often recommended, as adenoids and tonsils tend to naturally shrink by this age
