I've been experiencing this weird fluttering sound in my ear for the past two days, but it only happens when I use my earphones or talk on the phone. The strange part is that it's in the opposite ear from the one I'm using. What could this be? Should I be concerned?

This fluttering sound in your ear could be due to a condition called Tinnitus. I recommend using over-the-counter ear drops like Debrox to clean your ears in case there is any blockage causing the sound. Additionally, you can take Tab. Betahistine to help with the symptoms. If the issue persists, it is advisable to consult an ENT specialist for further evaluation.

I'm really struggling with this issue, it's been going on for about a year and a half now. I've seen doctors, but nothing seems to be helping. It always feels like there's something stuck in my throat, almost like someone is tapping on it from the outside. There's also this mild pain in my ears. Sometimes it feels better, but other times the sensation is really strong. What could be causing this and what should I do next?
