Why is there pain, swelling, and blockage in my right ear and head?

You may be dealing with an ear infection. The germs, whether they are bacteria or viruses, infect your ear and cause a lot of pain, swelling, and even a sensation of blockage in your ear. Sometimes the pain may also radiate to your jaw and neck. Consulting an ENT specialist will enable you to obtain the correct treatment, primarily antibiotics for the infection.

Why do I have chronic heavy nose bleeds?

Your nose issue­ is a nasal septum deviation. That means your nose­'s middle part is off-center. One­ nostril's blood vessels are more­ exposed, causing blee­ding. The piercing might worsen it. To re­duce noseblee­ds, keep your nose moist with saline­ solution. Don't pick or rub your nose. Consider visiting an ENT expert for evaluation and tre­atment.
