Hey, John - It's one of those very minor side affects. I'm 4 months (today) out of the same exact treatment. I assume there is nothing in your nose to pick either. Most things like that come around after 2 - 3 months. I even have a few whiskers starting to grow on my neck. For now, enjoy having clean ears. Steve

My ear is totally dry one year post TX. I also have a lot of ear pain. Not sure if being so dry is causing the pain, since no one seems to have an answer for why my ear hurts.

Good day Friends,

I too. have this problem, mainly the ear where the cancered tonsil & lymph nodes were.  My ENT said it bured it up in there.  He said to keep it moist and help it to use Q-tips and baby oil. Moisten the tip and clean the out side, then the inside. it will clean it as well as moisture it.  I do this 1-2 times a week.  In reading, we all have gone, or been going through it!

God Bless and you are doing wonderful. God is Good

Patricia
