2 questions. One for myself.. I have taken Ibuprofen and been on antibiotics several weeks ago for a an infection. My heart rate with up and some chest pain along with weakening of the joints in the shoulders. Went to the doctor to check the ears and she said there wasn't any drainage and the ears were clear. We just put in a new sound system at our church when the feedback from somewhere went through both ears and my hearing just went away, everything was muffled. I understand that lack of the right vitamins can cause problems and am over 42. I know the tube in my ear doesn't drain right but what could of causes a knock out of hearing like that. I believe this has happened two years ago after I was on antibodtics. It could of possibly happened before that.

I went over to my nieces house to visit and I was playing the clarinet. I tried blowing into it and no sound came out. I set the clarinet down and my nieces right ear started bleeding. Is this like our noses up here in MN when the air gets dry or should I suggest further action. Have already notified the parents.
