I'm really struggling with this issue, it's been going on for about a year and a half now. I've seen doctors, but nothing seems to be helping. It always feels like there's something stuck in my throat, almost like someone is tapping on it from the outside. There's also this mild pain in my ears. Sometimes it feels better, but other times the sensation is really strong. What could be causing this and what should I do next?

View allI've been noticing for the last three days that when I spit, there's some blood, and it's happening like three to four times a day. I don't have a cough or anything, but honestly, I'm really scared. Someone mentioned it could be blood cancer? Can you help me figure out what's going on?
As you say it's unusual in that frequency visit ENT doctor for evaluation and appropriate management.

I've been having this cough on and off where I feel like something's stuck in my throat. Sometimes, when I cough, there are these tiny clear balls that come up. Its not constant, but it keeps coming back every few days, and I'm really tired of it. What could be causing this, and how can I get it to stop?
Yes you can take it and visit doctor for appropriate treatment.

I've had this hearing issue for 10-12 years and seen many doctors without a clear solution. Recently, an audiometry test showed my right ear is fine but the left ear doesn't pick up any beeps at any frequency. The doctor said there's no treatment except a hearing aid and ruled out surgery unless it's a bone or tumor issue. They mentioned one surgery option but said it's not guaranteed since it might be a nerve problem. Is there really no way to fix this 100% or am I stuck with a hearing aid for life?
ent review is advised.
