I'm really worried because I accidentally swallowed a chicken bone, and it's stuck in my throat. It's causing a lot of pain, and I'm not sure what to do about it. Can you help me figure out how to get rid of it or if I need to see a doctor immediately?

A white layer in the ear can be caused by:

  • Earwax buildup
  • Fungal infection (otomycosis)
  • Middle ear infection
  • Eczema or psoriasis

To determine the cause, consult a doctor or ENT specialist.

Avoid using cotton swabs or inserting objects into your ear, as this can push the debris further in.

I recently had my ear wax removed by an ENT specialist and now everything sounds super loud to me. My own voice even echoes a lot, which is really disturbing. Could you please give me some advice on how to deal with this?

you may be experiencing temporary changes in your hearing sensitivity and perception due to the removal of ear wax. To cope with this, you can try using ear plugs or earmuffs in noisy environments to reduce the loudness of sounds. Additionally, you can try speaking softly and practicing speaking at a lower volume to minimize the echo effect of your own voice. Over time, your hearing should adjust back to normal.
