I'm worried because yesterday I made a mistake and used hand sanitizer on my face and inside my nostrils when something dirty fell on me. I know I shouldn't have done it, and now I'm a bit concerned about any possible issues. I'm having a slight headache and the air I breathe through my nose feels warm. Could the alcohol in the hand sanitizer be drying out my nostrils? Could there be any side effects from this?

View allI've been dealing with this discomfort for over a week now, like something is stuck in my throat and just won't go away. It's not affecting my eating, but it's really bothering me. Any idea what this could be or how to get rid of it?
Heaviness in the head, ear blockage, and facial pain can be uncomfortable. Considering your raised IgE and nasal corticosteroid medication, possible causes include: - Allergic rhinitis exacerbation - Sinus pressure or infection - Eustachian tube dysfunction Consult your doctor or an ENT specialist to discuss: - Adjusting your medication - Additional treatments (e.g., decongestants, antihistamines) - Further evaluation (e.g., sinus imaging, allergy testing)

I've recently had earwax removed, but since then, I've been feeling a lot of pressure and fullness, especially in my right ear. It feels like I need to put my finger in there and stretch it to get some relief. It's like there's an itch or a constant urge to wiggle the inside of my ear as if it's swollen. My hearing has definitely improved after the wax removal, but this pressure is bothering me, mostly in the right ear and occasionally in the left. I've been using Ciplox ear drops for about a week now. Is this normal? Should I be taking any precautions or consider any other treatment? I'm getting a bit worried about it. Would appreciate your advice.
this needs evaluation ,visit ENT doctor for the same
