Suspected Housefly/Mosquito in the Ear

2017-08-16 10:12:35
I felt a flying insect get into my ear while I was asleep. Although, I don't have any headache, dizziness, swelling or pain in my ear, I did not see it come out. I am not sure whether it is still in my ear and if I should go to a doctor to get it removed. Is it possible that the insect is inside my ear but I do not feel any of the symptoms above
