I've been dealing with this issue where I keep getting mucus in my throat that I have to clear out forcefully. It's pretty annoying, and there aren't any other symptoms or complications that I can notice. I'm not dealing with any other condition either. What could be going on here?

My eardrum ruptured six months ago from using a cotton swab and still hasn't healed. There's some mild pain but no pus. Is it normal for it to take this long to heal or would I need surgery?

I'm a singer, and I've been having this issue with my left ear. Whenever I hit high notes, it feels clogged or like there's a bubble in it. It's super frustrating because I'm a soprano, and I really need to be able to hit those high notes without any problems. Could it be something serious, or is there a way to fix it?
