Question

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.

Question

I'm feeling really anxious about this odd thing in the back of my throat. I managed to get a picture of it but I'm not quite sure if I can share it here or not. It looks like a small off-white square way back there behind my tongue. The wider I open my mouth, the more visible it gets, and it seems to bob up and down. Should I be worried? Any idea what this could be?

I had nasal surgery five months ago but I'm still getting green mucus from my nose. Is this normal or should I be concerned?
