I've been feeling like I might have accidentally swallowed a toothbrush bristle while brushing, and now it seems like it's stuck in my throat. But I'm not totally sure if it's actually there or if it's just in my head. On top of that, I've been dealing with a cough for over a week now. Could these things be related, and is there something I should do?

View allI've had these holes in my ears since I was a kid, but I'm not really sure what they are. I did some googling and it looks like they might need surgery if they ever get infected. Here's the thing: I have no idea if my ears are infected or not. Every time I press near the holes, some kind of fluid comes out. Do you have any idea what this could be? Should I be worried?
That could be CSOM,this needs immediate attention,visit ENT docotor for evaluation and appropriate management,yes this might need surgical correction.
