I've been experiencing this tickling noise in my ear for a couple of weeks now, and I'm kind of worried. It feels like when you get that ear blockage from pressure changes, like going up a mountain. Plus, I've been yawning a lot more than usual. Is there something wrong with my ear? What could be causing this and should I get it checked out?

I'm a woman in my mid-twenties, about to turn 26, and I'm weighing around 112 pounds. I went to see my ENT for some allergy concerns and out of nowhere, he suggested I get a tonsillectomy. He mentioned that my tonsils are pretty large and he's worried that if I ever gain weight when I'm older, it might lead to sleep apnea. I am of Asian descent, and I've been told that makes me more prone to sleep apnea. Honestly, I don't have any recurring throat issues, just some snoring, and the only time I had throat problems was back in 2010 with a few bouts of strep throat but nothing since then. He thinks I should have them removed now since recovery might be easier while I'm young. Do you think I should go ahead and get my tonsils out? Does all this sound like a good enough reason to proceed with the surgery?

Yes. In my opinion. You should go ahead with the tonsillectomy.
