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?

I'm really worried about this sore throat I keep getting every morning for the past few days. I make sure to drink water before bed and sometimes even in the middle of the night, but it doesn't seem to help. I've noticed I mostly sleep with my mouth closed too. Could you give me some advice on what might help? Also, I don't drink tea or coffee before bed, just so you know.

If the issue persists, it might be worth checking for allergies or mild reflux, which can also cause throat irritation.
