I've been experiencing this weird crackling sound in my left ear whenever I swallow food. Sometimes it happens in my right ear too. I also notice it when I blow air through my mouth or even while I'm speaking. It's really starting to worry me. What could be causing this and how can it be treated?

Question

I've been having this really annoying throat irritation and my allergy AEC levels are over 700, which I'm guessing isn't great. What can I do to bring it down to normal? Are there specific foods I should be avoiding or maybe some that could help?

Question

I've been dealing with a cold for about two months now, and it's left me with this really annoying foul taste in my mouth. The cold itself isn't really bothering me as much as the taste is. Any ideas on what's causing this, and how I can get rid of that awful taste?

Question

I've noticed that my tongue and the roof of my mouth have this white to yellowish color. There aren't any white or red spots, but I'm kind of worried about what it might be. Is it something serious? Also, I've had this weird feeling like there's hair or something at the back of my throat for a while now, but it goes away when I eat or drink. Are these two things connected? If not, what could be causing this strange sensation?
