Question 1

I recently got into a fight and ended up being slapped really hard, like twice or thrice on the left side of my face, near my ear and cheek, and close to my eye area. Right after, I had some bleeding inside my mouth, probably from biting down with my teeth. The next morning, I noticed a ringing in my ear, but there wasn't any pain. I'm struggling to hear as well out of that ear compared to the other one. There's also some swelling on my face. I'm guessing my hearing is around 50 to 60 percent, but it's just a rough estimate. Should I be worried about this? What do you think is going on with my ear and hearing?

Visit ENT doctor and get audiometry done to rule out any hearing impairement.

Question 2

I'm really worried because it's been over 20 days and I just can't seem to sneeze. The issue began when my coworker jokingly hit me hard on the belly after lunch, and I had stomach pain for about 1.5 days after that. Normally, I sneeze around 23 times a day, but ever since then, it's like my nose starts the sneeze feeling, but my lungs just don't follow through. I've heard that sneezing helps get rid of dust particles at 320 kmph, so I'm concerned there might be serious health problems if I can't sneeze. I've even tried things like dusting the house and sniffing black pepper to bring on a sneeze, but nothing works. Could this just be something time will fix on its own, or should I be doing something specific to help? I'm feeling pretty anxious about it all. Any advice would be really helpful.

Question 3

Im always feeling air passing through my ear and it's starting to get really annoying. Could there be something wrong? Is there a way to fix or correct this? I'm worried and would love some advice on what might be going on.

Accepted Answer

There might be tympanic membrane isuues,visit Ent doctor for evaluation and appropriate management.

I've been dealing with nasal polyps for two years now, mostly in my right nostril. Hot drinks seem to make it worse and I'm relying on otrivin spray for relief but want something more permanent. Surgery isn't an option right now - what else can I try to manage this?

Nasal sprays, steam inhalation, allergy control, and steroids can reduce polyp size‚Äîconsider immunotherapy if chronic.
