my bro woke up one night in excruiciating pain. His ear was aching and he had stabbing pains in there.
Turns out a little beetle had wandered in there, and decided to dig his way out through his eardrum!
He tried water, different stuff, but every time he disturbed the beetle it woud start digging harder.
Finally he drove himself to the ER. They looked at him like he was crazy, since he was all hunched over to one side and contorted in pain.
The admitted him and flooded his ear with an anesthetic, and got it out.
