I've been having a hard time swallowing anything after I vomited really hard following some drinks yesterday. My throat started hurting right afterward, and now every time I try to swallow, whether it's water or any food, it's painful. What could be going on, and how can I ease this pain?

I'm trying to figure out what the main difference is between using oxymetazoline and xylometazoline hydrochloride nasal sprays. Is one riskier than the other? I'm a bit worried about choosing the right one.

Both have equal effect you can use both.

I've been dealing with this weird sensation in my ears, like there's an airlock or maybe mucus shifting around. It all started when I had a bad cough and cold. Those are gone now, but the ear sensation is still there. I've tried closing my mouth and ears and blowing through my ears to fix it. Any idea what's going on or what I should do next?
