I'm really worried about my husband. His neck is swollen on the left side, behind the ear, and it doesn't hurt. Our ENT specialist did a fine needle test and the microscopy report says there's no sign of cassation granuloma or malignancy. They mentioned something about a reactive lymphoid aspirate and advised excision if there's clinical suspicion for Koch's. Can you help explain what all this means? We also tried two weeks of antibiotics and the swelling seems to be getting smaller. I'm trying to understand if we should still be concerned.

I've been dealing with blocked ears and sharp shooting pain for about a month now. There have been times I hear sounds in my ear too. Steaming has helped open up my left ear, but my right ear still feels blocked and painful sometimes. I tried using soliwax, but it just made my ears ring. My hearing seems fine, though. Any suggestions on what I should do next? I'm really looking for some guidance.

I accidentally swallowed a small sharp chicken bone and now it feels like it's stuck in my throat. Is this something normal, or should I be worried about any potential danger? How can I deal with this problem?
Accidentally swallowing a sharp chicken bone can be concerning as it may cause injury or irritation in the throat. It is important to seek medical attention if you are experiencing symptoms such as difficulty swallowing, pain when swallowing, drooling, or chest pain. In the meantime, you can try eating soft foods and drinking plenty of water to help the bone pass through the digestive tract. If you experience severe pain or difficulty breathing, seek immediate medical help.
