I've been having this weird pain in my throat whenever I drink water, but interestingly, it doesn't hurt when I eat. Sometimes, there's a slight discomfort when I swallow saliva. I'm just wondering what could be causing this. Any ideas?

I'm feeling a bit worried because I've had this prickly sensation in my throat whenever I swallow or breathe for the last few hours. It's making me really anxious. Could this be something serious, or is it just a minor irritation that will go away on its own?

I'm having this issue where soap got into my ear and now there's this constant beeping sound. I'm 19, and I tried using ear drops called Waxrid from Kaizen Drugs. But I'm not sure how many drops I should use. Can you help me figure it out?
