Bug in my ear
Yesterday night I had an incident while sleeping, a bug has entered into my left ear
Before I can avoid it, it crawled inside my ear
I had pain initially
Immediately I poured some drops of salt water into my ear
From then on there is no pain but I feel something is present inside my ear
Whole night I was lying on one side and not able to sleep assuming that the bug will fall from my ear
But it has not happened
Even I don't know what kind of bug it is and whether it is dead or alive inside
Im worried
Kindly advise here
Thank you in advance
