I'm really worried about my friend's ear pain. She's been dealing with it for over a year, and every time we consulted a doctor, they just recommended cleaning. But last week, she was out of town and in a lot of pain, so she saw another doctor who found a small hole in her eardrum and suggested surgery. Im wondering if surgery is really necessary or if there are other options. Could you give some advice on this situation?

I'm curious about something that's been happening lately. When I lie on my side in bed, I can hear my heartbeat in the ear that's against the pillow, but nowhere else in the room. Is this normal, or should I be concerned about it?
When you lie on one side of the bed, it is common to hear your heartbeat more prominently in the ear that is in contact with the pillow. This is known as pulsatile tinnitus. To help alleviate this symptom, you can try using earplugs or playing white noise in the background. If the issue persists or worsens, it is recommended to consult an ENT specialist for further evaluation and management.

I've been dealing with recurring fevers for the last three months, and it's really been a struggle. Ever since I was a kid, I've had issues with my tonsils. Anytime I'm exposed to cold weather, I end up with a fever, throat pain, and a cold. Recently, I also got typhoid, and although the medicines help for about ten days, the symptoms just keep coming back. This cycle has been repeating over and over, and I'm not sure what to do next. Can you offer any advice or solutions?
