Has anyone ever had something crawl into their ear? What happened?

When my grandson was three, he went around rubbing on his ear and trying to dig in it.  No one really paid that much attention until the next morning when he woke up and was bleeding from his ear and stumbling all over.  They took him to the E R and come to find out while they were camping at the lake, apparently while he was sleeping, a fly had crawled down in his ear and had laid eggs and they had hatched. They sucked them all out at the E R  but it was terribly painful for him. I can't imagine what he went through.

not usually, unless you don't treat it.  It's just an ear infection, don't worry!!

I'm right handed and scratch my left ear with my left hand.  I have never seen anyone do it the way you describe, perhaps you live in some backwards ear scratching land??? :O

It sounds like a allergic reaction to a airborne inhalant. Does it occur at the same location? Like at home. Could be anything from dust mites to mold spores. I turn 35 before I had allergies and denied it for two years before going to the doctor and get some singular. The don't even bother me now. Hope you find out as easy as me.

I've these round things, called tympanums, which are my external ear drums that transmit sound to my middle and inner ears.  Your ear drums in stuck somewhere in your ears.\n\nI'm not answering any more frog questions.  Croak croak.

I had the exact same thing happen to me a few months ago.  It was an infection.  When an infection is present in the body the lymph nodes are the first things to catch it and react.  That's why your node is swollen.  I took a week of antibiotics and it cleared up within a couple of days.  Those little cysts show up in ears all the time, and if they turn into infections all you need is an antibiotic.  You'll be better in no time.

Yes, please see a doctor! It's very easy to injure your ear drum with q-tips. Damage is irreversible if you don't see a doc promptly.

I have it too from a car accident.  So far none of the things I have tried or places I have been sent have worked.  I think we are stuck with it.  One thing I do is put headphones on and listen to music when I fall asleep.  It sort of distracts me from the ringing.

Dear Lord I am scared of spiders and ticks.  I had a cousin that got Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever from a tick bite when I was little.  I've been scared of anything with a bunch of legs that looks spider like since then.  I couldn't get in the shower the other day because a spider was in it.  I was late to work because I couldn't get it to wash down the drain.  Sad, but true.

Same thing happened to my guy, but he's a music fanatic with the headphones...ended up going to the ER for it cuz I couldn't get it all. I got a lot too. Dr. pulled out 2x as much as what you said. He told him that some people poduce wax faster than others. But it took like a month or so to get that bad. Maybe 2 months max. It's just that those people have stickier wax than most people. Dr said not to use q-tips cuz it'd shove it in further. But to wash out canal with a bulb syringe with warm water often to reduce build up. It was rock hard too when it came out, and really dark. Ew. He was having a hell of a time hearing. I could hear his music through his headphones when he was across the room! When he was almost deaf is when I said lemme see.

It sounds like you have a severe case of hookworm. Suggest this or tape worm to your doctor and tell them, don't ask, to be treated for this.

Pretty common. I had it when I was about 9 or 10. It was embarassing, but it happens to alot of kids.\nI remember my mom freaking out. She practically bobbed my hair short and bought the special shampoo for head lice.

Take her to her pediatrician and have them look in her ear.  If there is a bug in there, it can be killed with a little lidocaine and it should be removed by an otolaryngologist (ENT) immediately.  If there is a bug in there and it dies (because it will), it will cause otitis externa (an outer ear infection) which can cause the canal of the ear to swell shut and make it very very painful for her.  It makes removal more difficult (sometimes impossible).
