Why Do I Have Hissing in One Ear?
Hello I’ve been having some hissing in one ear
General Physician
Answered on 23rd May '24
If you hear a hissing noise in one ear, you may have tinnitus. It is a condition where you hear sounds like ringing, buzzing, or hissing without any outside noise making the sound. Tinnitus can happen for a few reasons. Very loud sounds can cause it. An ear infection might too. Or if you are very stressed, tinnitus can start. Try to avoid loud places and sounds. Find ways to feel calm and relaxed. But you should also go see an ENT specialist. They can check your ears and help figure out the best way to make the hissing stop.

Can you use polymyxin b sulfate neomycin sulfate dexamethasone on both ears? They hurt alternately but not all the time. A doctor gave me the prescription but she only said apply to one ear
Female | 40
Ear infections can happen and go away. The medicine helps reduce pain and swelling. Use it properly, one ear at a time. See if it assists with discomfort. If concerns persist or pain stays, inform an ENT specialist immediately. Follow instructions carefully for the best results. Consistent treatment prevents worsening symptoms. Don't hesitate to update your physician if issues remain.

I have ear aches but not sure what it could be causing it
Female | 17
A few different things can cause earaches. Sometimes it is an infection such as one in the ear canal or middle ear where bacteria or viruses have entered. Another cause may be too much ear wax or changes in air pressure. You may find relief by using warm compresses, taking over-the-counter pain medication, and resting. You should see an ENT specialist if your condition doesn’t improve after a few days or get worse.

Female | 23
You are likely dealing with an ear infection. The symptoms you are describing, including pain and swelling, typically accompany such an infection. You must visit an ENT specialist who can prescribe the appropriate treatment, for example, antibiotics. Use a warm compress to your ear for the moment to help with the pain.

Hello. I am 21 years old male. Last night I took a tablet for tooth ache and after taking I was feeling that it is still stuck in my throat. After a hour I went to sleep with the same feeling that the tablet is stuck in my throat. I am a bit confused that while I am sleeping the tablet may have entered the windpipe instead of food pipe. Is it possible that it entered the windpipe while I am sleeping and not letting me know that it had entered the windpipe. I would be really grateful to know the answer.
Male | 21
When a tablet feels stuck in the throat, it is usually in the esophagus instead of the trachea. You would cough a lot if it got into the windpipe. Sometimes, it can be a feeling of something getting stuck in the throat because the tablet is dissolved for some time. Drinking water may assist it in its journey downward. However, if you experience difficulty breathing or acute pain, get medical treatment as soon as possible.

First of all, I woke up with a weird feeling in my mouth. My saliva was extremely dry…I had to try take water but then I realized something shocking. It was initially tough to swallow my saliva like I had a sore throat but that wasn’t it. I felt my uvula come towards my tongue when I tried to gag. I checked the mirror and saw that my uvula got very long just overnight
Male | 24
Uvulitis is when your uvula swells up. The uvula hangs at the back of your throat. Infections, allergies, or snoring while asleep can cause it. You might feel something in your throat. Swallowing may be difficult, and your throat might hurt. Drinking lots of water helps. Gargling warm saltwater soothes. If symptoms don't go away, see an ENT specialist.

I have sore throat, pain, clogged ears , coughing and blowing my nose a lot
Female | 58
A sore throat, stuffy ears, cough, and frequent nose blowing suggest you have a common cold or viral infection. These result from your body battling the virus. To improve, rest well, stay hydrated, and use over-the-counter meds for relief. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, visit an ENT specialist.

I'm facing ear blocking issue can u please suggest cure
Female | 25
You feel like your ear is blocked, perhaps from wax buildup. It also occurs with sinus infections or altitude shifts during travel. Try ear drops first to loosen the wax, and tilt your head to drain it. If the blockage persists, see a doctor for an exam. Earwax often causes this issue, but sinus problems and altitude changes can too. Over-the-counter ear drops may clear wax buildup. Gently tilt your head after using drops, allowing drainage. However, if discomfort continues, visit an ENT specialist.

You could have a common cold. Sore throat, headache, cough, and nasal drainage - these symptoms fit for a common cold. Dry nose too, is a common sign. Colds are viral. They usually resolve within a week or two on their own. To ease symptoms, get rest, stay hydrated, and try over-the-counter remedies for relief.

I have ear infection too much pain face swelling
Male | 25
You may be suffering from an ear infection. The infection itself is responsible for the pain and swelling in your face. Ear infections develop as a result of the bacteria or virus that infects your ear. On one hand, they may disappear on their own without treatment; on the other hand, if the problem is serious, you should take medicine prescribed by an ENT specialist. Applying a warm cloth to your ear is a good way to soothe the pain for now.

There must be concern about the lumps on your tonsil. They might mean an infection, for example, tonsillitis, which will make the throat swell and hurt. Additional signs could be trouble swallowing, fever, and halitosis. Whatever the lumps are, see an ENT specialist to get them treated.

I am a 22 year old female. I have had this for 4 days now. Saturday morning I woke up feeling feverish and a sore throat, it was red and looked very inflamed. I went to the pharmacy and bought immune booster and Ibupain Forte for the pain. I have had body aches, chills, headaches and feelings of fever for 2 days after Monday morning I throat was painful and had difficulty swallowing and I could feel it was my tonsils, they looked red, inflamed and had white patches on them. Tuesday morning, I went to the clinic at pharmacy and they gave me amoxicillin and pain meds for the pain. I feel much better now however my voice is gone.
Female | 22
The symptoms you have mentioned suggest a throat infection which is most probably of bacterial origin. The white patches seen on your tonsils are another hallmark of this condition. Amoxicillin is a good step as it is the medication prescribed by the clinic that helps deal with the infection. It is vital to finish the entire course of antibiotics, which you are taking even if you feel better. Your lost voice will probably go back to normal as you continue to heal. Ensure that you get enough rest, drink plenty of water, and stick to the medication directions. If your symptoms stay or get worse, it's a good idea to have a follow-up with an ENT specialist.
