I've got a really odd situation going on. I threw up a cheeseburger and fries, and it was so intense that somehow it came out of my nose and even my ears. I'm confused and a bit worriedhow could this happen? I was literally cleaning bits of food out of my ears with cotton swabs and alcohol. Now, it's been about 72 hours, and while I've managed to get most of it out of my nose, it still feels like there's something stuck in my ear canals. Is this something I should be really worried about, and is there anything else I can do to clear it out?

I have mild DNS but no issues like nasal blockage or cold. Do I still need to consider surgery for it?

I've had my ears blocked for the past 4 days, and I think it might be due to a cold I had. Not completely sure, though. It sometimes feels like there's water or some fluid in there, and occasionally, when I sneeze, the blockage goes away for a few seconds, but then it comes back. There's a little pain too, which is why I've been taking oxalgin tablets and using drep ear drops. What could be causing this, and should I be doing something different?
It sounds like you may be experiencing Eustachian tube dysfunction due to your recent cold. To help relieve the blockage and pain in your ears, I recommend taking a decongestant like Sudafed (pseudoephedrine) to help reduce the swelling in the Eustachian tubes. You can also try using a nasal spray like Afrin (oxymetazoline) to further reduce congestion. Additionally, continue using the Otrivin ear drops for relief. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions for each medication. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it would be best to consult with an ENT specialist for further evaluation and management.
