I'm noticing a weird sound in my throat whenever I drink something, and my left ear seems a bit off too. There's no pain, but it feels like there's something on the left side of my throat. What could be causing this? Should I be worried?

View allI've been dealing with this weird sensation in my ears, like there's an airlock or maybe mucus shifting around. It all started when I had a bad cough and cold. Those are gone now, but the ear sensation is still there. I've tried closing my mouth and ears and blowing through my ears to fix it. Any idea what's going on or what I should do next?
See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.

I've been feeling really dizzy since yesterday whenever I lie down or get up. It also happens when I shake my head. Should I see an ENT specialist for this, or would another specialist be better?
Your symptoms suggest benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), a common inner ear disorder; consider consulting an ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) specialist or a neurologist for a proper evaluation and treatment, which may include the Epley maneuver or other exercises to help alleviate the dizziness.

My mom is 60 and has diabetes and high blood pressure. She's been dealing with really bad ear itching and when we saw an ENT specialist, they found holes in both eardrums. One doctor says she needs surgery on the right ear first then the left after 3 months, but another ENT said surgery isn't necessary at all. Really confused about what to do since we have the scan reports but getting conflicting opinions
It's understandable to be confused with conflicting medical opinions. While a perforated eardrum (a hole in the eardrum) can sometimes heal on its own, surgery (tympanoplasty) might be necessary, especially if the perforation doesn't heal within a few months or if it causes significant hearing loss or ear infections. Your mom's diabetes and high blood pressure could also influence the healing process and make it more important to address the perforation properly
