I've had this issue where my right ear feels blocked for the last couple of days. It's really bothering me, and I'm not sure what to do about it. Could you suggest any medicine for ear blockage or maybe some exercises to help clear it up?

Chronic sneezing and itchy eyes can be frustrating.
Possible causes include:
- Allergies (seasonal or perennial)
- Dust mites
- Pet allergies
- Pollen
Consult an allergist or ENT specialist for:
- Allergy testing
- Personalized treatment plans
- Immunotherapy (if necessary)
In the meantime, try:
- Over-the-counter antihistamines (e.g., cetirizine)
- Eye drops (e.g., ketotifen)
- Nasal sprays (e.g., oxymetazoline)

View allI'm having some pain in my right ear and I think there might be an insect in there. I've been hearing these crackling and painful noises every now and then, only on that side. I tried using coconut oil and some warm water, but the noises haven't stopped. What should I do? Is there anything else I can try, or should I see a doctor?
No,it's not possible for an insect to settle down there,the noise could be due to fluid movement which is due to ear effusion, practice valsalva, visit ENT doctor for appropriate treatment.

My dad is 45 and has been having ear problems with mucus discharge every other day. We saw an ENT doctor who said both ears might need surgery. I'm not sure if surgery is really necessary or if medications could help instead. Also, if surgery is needed, does it have to be for both ears or just one? Can you check the reports I've attached and let me know what you think?
If both ears have chronic discharge and failed medical treatment, surgery like tympanoplasty may be needed; one or both ears can be treated depending on disease severity.

I've been dealing with this bothersome phlegm stuck in the back of my throat and it's not going away. I've tried gargling but it hasn't worked and now there's also this unpleasant odor coming from my mouth. What can I do to get rid of it?
It sounds like you might be dealing with post-nasal drip or mucus buildup in the throat. Try drinking warm water with honey and lemon to soothe the throat, and consider using a saline nasal spray or steam inhalation to help clear the mucus. If it persists, its best to consult a doctor to rule out any underlying infections or conditions.
