My wife has been dealing with some really bothersome throat pain and we're not sure what's going on. We've tried giving her some tablets, but it doesn't seem to be getting any better. She also has this really bad cough that's worrying us. Could you help us figure out what's happening?

Your wife's throat pain and bad cough could be symptoms of a sore throat, also known as pharyngitis, which is usually caused by a viral infection like the common cold or flu. It's possible that the tablets she took didn't provide relief because they might not have addressed the underlying cause.

View allI'm really having a tough time with my headphones. I can't manage to keep them on for more than 5 minutes because they cause discomfort and sometimes even a slight pain in my ears and throat. It's okay when I'm not using them, but I can't figure out if I will ever be able to use headphones again without this issue. I've noticed dryness in my ears, so I tried using a few drops of coconut oil which helps temporarily, but then after 30 minutes of headphone use, my ears are dry again and the discomfort returns. Could it be the headphones causing the dryness, or is there something else going on? I'm really looking for a permanent solution to this ear and throat discomfort from using headphones. Any suggestions?
Normal, nothing to worry ok.

I'm having this crackling noise in my left ear for a while now and it's starting to worry me. I went for an audiometry test and they said everything's normal, but I still can't shake the feeling that something's off. It's especially bad when I use my phone on that sideI can hear things but they sound muffled and unclear. Plus, there's this constant tinnitus that's been bothering me. What could be going on?
The crackling noise, muffled hearing, and tinnitus in your left ear, despite normal audiometry results, suggest possible conditions like Eustachian tube dysfunction, patulous Eustachian tube, or middle ear myoclonus; consider consulting an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist
