I've been having this issue with my throat for a while nowabout three months. Whenever I drink water, I get this weird pain, but it's totally fine when I swallow food. It's starting to really bother me, and I'm not sure what's going on. Any ideas on what might be causing this or what I could do to make it stop?

I'm feeling this heaviness in my left ear after I got slapped, and it just feels sort of blank. There's this dull, heavy sensation and a little bit of pain. Should I be worried? What could be causing this?

I'm worried about my hearing because I was using a qtip and then my hearing got muffled. I thought I just pushed the wax in further so I didn't really think much of it at first. But now it's been 3 days and my hearing is still muffled. I went to the pharmacy and told the pharmacist about it, and he gave me Dewax to try. I put 3 drops in my ear before bed like he suggested, but after that, I completely stopped hearing from that ear. It's been a full day since I used the drops and I still can't hear. Is this normal or should I be concerned and see a doctor?
