Question 1

left ear appears to be bleeding, after two days of pain and feeling of pressure imbalance or air bubbles in ear. could this be serious?

Accepted Answer

Otitis media: Your symptoms are consistent with acute otitis media. See your primary care doctor for exam and treatment. Most likely it 'll resolve with proper treatment.

Question 2

before i have pimple in my ear now i feel air bubble in my ear its keep go blow in my ear what should i do?

Accepted Answer

Oral decongestant: may help if the air bubble is in the middle ear and changes with swallowing or blowing your nose.  If the bubble or fluid is in the ear canal, then there may be swelling or wax that is blocking the normal ear canal.  Ear flush may help.  Warm compresses may help heal a pimple near the ear canal.

Question 3

i hear a gurgling sound at base of head where my neck/head meet, like a small gurgle or small air bubbles passing through thin area when laying still.

Accepted Answer

Gurgle: Your esophagus traverses your neck and ends up meeting your stomach underneath the diaphragm on your left side. Air and fluid may gurgle, nothing to worry about. Stay calm and carry on.

Question 4

what is the term for air bubbles going up to your head when you get a shot?

Accepted Answer

Air embolus: This is only a problem if you get an injection into an artery  leading to the head.  Otherwise, air for instance in veins is easily handled during the transit of the blood through your lungs.

Question 5

pressure in ear hurts really bad making side of tongue hurt when i burp it feels like an air bubble passes through but hurts when it reaches inner ear?

Accepted Answer

Exam needed: It's very important to have your ear examined by your physician or an otolaryngologist as there may be a middle ear infection causing your discomfort. A blocked eustachian tube in the back of your nasal passage is another possibility.

Question 7

what are the causes of air bubbles in sinuses?

Accepted Answer

Fluid in the sinus: Air / fluid levels, or bubbles in the sinuses may be an indication of an infection and best to see your otolarygologist.

Question 8

i have excessive clear vaginal discharge accompanied by pain and air bubbles, what could this be ?

Accepted Answer

Infection: Most likely trichomonas vaginalis infection, you will need to get pelvic exam and treatment. On occassion, it could just be a different infection - gardenerella vaginalis- also treatable, or some women just have natural discharge - which needs no treatment- the bubbless lead me to think of trich. Also if this is the case, your partner should be treated too-and use condoms!

Question 9

do air bubbles in an iv fluid drip matter? i'm getting rumbling noises in my chest along with some palpitations

Accepted Answer

IV: Ask the staff to check you and the IV out. Sometimes bubbles in an IV can be a problem.

Question 10

i feel like i have air bubbles trapped in my vagina all the time. could someone please explain what it means. my gyno is clueless on this.

Accepted Answer

Vaginal air: Well some women do retain some air in the vagina especially after having children as the lips of the vagina may be more gaping.  Occasionally when women bare down or during sex they may make a sound that is similar to passing gas.  Sometimes during a vaginal surgery once the patient relaxes you will hear a bit of air pass out the vaginal opening.
