Question 2

i am scared i have n.fowleri. jumped into a new york lake 10 days ago (8/26). i have excess burping, stomach pain, and ear pain, sometimes a headache.

Accepted Answer

Doubt it: The average time between exposure and onset of symptoms/death is 5 days.Severe,disabling headache is one of the first and continuous symptoms. If your that concerned go to urgent care. It is certainly something we worry about, but I doubt your pattern of symptoms is from that.

Question 3

left ear pain and clogged sensation, pain/drum pops when burping, jaw pain near left ear and congestion. internist saw no ear infection.  ideas? help!

Accepted Answer

Antihistamines: Throat and middle ear are connected.  Burping opens the tubes that connect both called Eustachian tubes.  Decrease the congestion which irritates throat and ear pain might improve.  Antihistamines such as zyrtec, Claritin, (loratadine) Allegra could improve the symptoms of congestion.

Question 4

sharp pain on my chest and throat, frequent burping, ear pain and shortness of breath. what is this? is this gerd?

Accepted Answer

It could be: Most of your symptoms are compatible with GERD. GERD can cause burping, chest and throat burning or sharp pain, and occasional shortness of breath. I'm not sure the ear pain is related. That being said, there are other things that can cause chest pain. If you haven't already, you should see your doctor who can take a full history and examine you. Hope this helps!

Question 5

so i had a guess a cold (stuffy nose and ear pain and sore throat) it went away and then a day later the throat came back. its scratchy and when i lay down i have i think a post nasal drip. i also have indigestion (burping a lot) whats the problem?

Accepted Answer

: I still think your body is fighting off a common cold viral infection that'll most likely last a week or so.  If you feel that your belching is gas buildup from indigestion, avoid gassy foods &amp; beverages.  Don't force yourself to belch as you'll only keep swallowing more air. Taking simethicone 1/2 hour after meals prevents gas buildup.

Accepted Answer

Question 7

child ear pain?

Accepted Answer

Symptom relief-: You can certainly give your child something like tylenol (acetaminophen) or Ibuprofen for pain relief, even when they are not running a temperature. Lying flat while sleeping also hurts more, so prop up or sleep reclining. If old enough, sometimes helps to chew to relieve pressure, so gum or chewy candy like gummy bears. Finally, if pain not relieved by simple measures, needs to be seen by doc to see if needs med.

Question 8

is ear pain dangerous?

Accepted Answer

That depends: Ear pain should be evaluated.  An ear infection can lead to meningitis, hearing loss, chronic ear drum perforation and other problems.  Some ear infections might be treated without an antibiotic, but that's a decision you should make with your doctor.  Tumors of the throat and tonsil can also cause ear pain, as can sinus infection.  Ifear pain is unexplained and persistant , see an ENT doctor.
