Ear wax removal causing minor bleeding and pain?

When I remove the ear wax, there is a small blood, is there any problem, there is a small pain

1 Answer

Answered on 31st July '24

Your ear has soft skin inside­. You may bleed a bit when cle­aning. Don't worry, it's normal. You likely scratched the de­licate inner skin. This scratch also causes the­ slight pain. But don't push objects too far into your ear. That's when ble­eding becomes conce­rning. If bleeding persists, se­e an ENT specialist.

I have strep throat since 3 days. I see white patches on back of my throat and pain while swallowing and i also have fever and chills.

Female | 27

You might be suffering from strep throat. Strep throat is caused by bacteria that can make your throat hurt a lot. The white patches you see are a common sign of strep throat. You may also have a fever and chills. To feel better, you should rest, drink fluids, and take medicine your doctor might prescribe to fight the infection. Gargling with warm salt water can also help soothe your throat.

My son 12 + suffering from tonsils last ten days .... antibiotics also given to him but he is allergic with Amoxicillin, ...He treated from bl Kapoor, with pcm, attarax & avil, cepodem 200mg....He feel pain in ears because of tonsils what medicine should give.... please reply fast

Male | 12

I understand your concern about your son's adenotonsils and ear infection. The tonsils could be causing his ear pain since they are close by in the throat. To help with the pain, you can give him acetaminophen (PCM). Make sure he continues the prescribed medications, drinks plenty of fluids, gets enough rest, and eats soft, cool foods to soothe his throat. If his symptoms don’t improve or worsen, please see the doctor again for further tests.

I have had a cold for a couple days. Mucus secretions, sore throat, generally feeling under the weather. On one of the days, my right ear started to feel like water was trapped inside. It still has to gotten better. When I speak, I feel like I am under water. It doesnt hurt, but my hearing is diminished. How can I fix it?

Female | 25

Mucus buildup can cause a sensation of fullness in the ear, leading to muffled hearing, as the Eustachian tubes may become blocked. Staying well-hydrated, using steam inhalation, or saline nasal sprays may help alleviate the congestion. If symptoms persist, or if you experience pain or fever, it’s essential to consult a healthcare professional. They can check for any underlying issues and provide appropriate treatment.

My uvula has elongated into my throat after I woke up from sleep this morning about 2hrs ago. It's making swallowing a bit unconfortable. My breathing is fine for now and it's not painful for now. I've gargled with salty warm water.

Male | 29

Concerns about an elongated uvula are understandable and can be caused by factors such as dehydration, allergies, or inflammation. Considering you are merely feeling a little weirdness while swallowing but breathing is okay, it may not be a life-threatening event. Saltwater gargling is the first step to getting relief. Alongside that, drinking water is just as important. When things get worse, or you face such a problem as shortness of breath, and increased pain, please consult an ENT specialist.

I am suffering from sinus problem and najal allergy since my childhood

Female | 20

Sinus issues are the usual culprits for stuffy or runny noses, headaches, and pressure around your eyes and nose. Nasal allergies occur when one's immune system reacts even to innocent substances like pollen or dust. The best way to manage this is by avoiding the triggers such as dust, using air filters, and taking allergy medications.

throat hurts body aches headache loss of breath ear ache congestion runny nose stomach hurts and hard to breath in the mouth no fever

Female | 16

Signs like throat pain, body aches, headache­, breathing trouble, and other discomforts could be­ from a cold or flu. These viral illnesse­s spread quickly. Resting up, drinking fluids, and using OTC meds may e­ase symptoms.

I had a runny nose 2 days ago so I took panadol that has 30mg pseudoephedrine. It stopped running within 1 hour. But yesterday I woke up in the middle of the night with a blocked nose and it would only clear up when I stood up. Today I still have a congested nose no mucus. When I close my mouth I can’t breathe through my nose at all

Female | 25

It sounds like you may be experiencing nasal congestion, which can result from various factors such as allergies or a mild viral infection. The blockage while lying down could be due to gravity affecting nasal drainage. Staying hydrated and using a humidifier may help ease your symptoms. Over-the-counter saline sprays are also beneficial for relieving congestion. If your symptoms persist or worsen, I recommend consulting a general physician to rule out any underlying issues.

I'm Rashmi, 27 years old. I'm a tb patient. Recently from past 5-6 days I'm having headache. So went for a CT brain scan. The results were normal. However there is one line written in bold which states "There is minimal polypoidal mucosal thickening in both maxillary sinuses". Could you please let me know what is it and how I need to naturally cure and take care.

Female | 27

It appears that inflammation within your sinuses might be­ responsible for your headache­. When sinuses become­ aggravated or infected, this condition arise­s. You may experience­ facial pressure, nasal congestion, or e­ven coughing. To alleviate symptoms, conside­r utilizing a humidifier, consuming ample water, and applying saline­ nasal spray. However, if relie­f remains elusive, consult your physician re­garding alternative reme­dies.
