I've been having this annoying ache in my right ear since the morning, and it gets really sharp whenever I burp. I'm kind of worried because I use earphones for long hours every day. Could this ear pain be because of that, or is it maybe something else?

There could be Eustachian tube blockage, practice valsalva manoeuvre for better results,if it's becoming worse visit ENT doctor for appropriate treatment

Can you help me figure out the right amount of Betadine to use for gargling? I already tried with a glass of water and mixed in 15ml, but it seemed too diluted. So, I added another 10-15ml to the warm water. Is that too much, or am I doing it right?

One cup of betadine (with the cup given with it) in half glass of water

I'm wondering if it's okay to rinse my mouth with fresh water after using Betadine for gargling. Also, if I can't rinse, is it safe to swallow the saliva that comes after gargling, because I read somewhere it might cause thyroid issues? And how long should I wait before eating or drinking anything post-gargling?

There is no such specific indication do it in your comfortable way.
