I'm having some pain in my right ear and I think there might be an insect in there. I've been hearing these crackling and painful noises every now and then, only on that side. I tried using coconut oil and some warm water, but the noises haven't stopped. What should I do? Is there anything else I can try, or should I see a doctor?

No,it's not possible for an insect to settle down there,the noise could be due to fluid movement which is due to ear effusion, practice valsalva, visit ENT doctor for appropriate treatment.

View allI had COVID last year and for the past six months, I've been dealing with constant nasal blockage because my turbinates are swollen, as confirmed by my ENT. I've tried all the medications the doctor suggested, but nothing has worked. Right now, I'm just using saline drops to manage the blockage. Is surgery the only option left for swollen turbinates, or could allergy shots help? Also, does turbinate surgery increase the risk of empty nose syndrome?
Swollen turbinates causing nasal blockage can be treated with medications like nasal sprays and antihistamines, and allergy shots may also be helpful, but surgery is sometimes necessary. Turbinate surgery carries a risk of "empty nose syndrome" (ENS), especially if too much tissue is removed
