I've got a hole in my right ear, and I'm dealing with pus coming out and some hearing loss. I'm really worried and wondering if my eardrum heals with treatment, will I be able to hear normally again with that ear?

Question

I've been dealing with swollen tonsils for around 3 years now, and every so often, there's this thick yellow stuff that comes out from the tonsil crypts. I've tried various antibiotics, but nothing seems to help. There's no pain or fever, just the swelling. What could be going on, and is there something else I should try?

Question

I've been dealing with a blocked left ear for a couple of days now, and it's really uncomfortable. Plus, I have a pretty bad cold. Should I be worried about it, or is this something that usually clears up on its own? What can I do to relieve the blockage?

Question

I've been dealing with a severe congested nose and a persistent cough for about a week now, and even though I'm on medicine for the cough, there's no fever. My nose is completely blocked, I have sinus pain, and I'm experiencing a head cold as well. But what really worries me is this new bubble-like sound I hear when I breathe out, especially if I'm lying down. Is this strange noise a typical side effect of having a congested nose and sinus issues? Ive always managed to get over colds and coughs pretty quickly before, so this is new for me. Is it something I should be really concerned about?
