What Causes Discomfort In The Throat And Ears?

My mum is feeling a strange movement of worm in her throat. Sometime it moves into her ear. If she lays toward the right side while sleeping, she feels as if the worm has moved towards the right ear. She has dewormed severally but all avail to nothing. She s so disturbed now. I look forward to your response.
