I'm feeling really anxious because I went to the dentist for an emergency treatment today and now I've suddenly got this urge to cough. It feels like there's something stuck in my throat. Could this possibly be related to COVID? The dentist was super careful and followed all the protocols like wearing a face shield, sanitizing everything, using air purifiers, and taking my temperature. He even mentioned he hasnt seen any other patients in a month. Despite all this, I'm still worried. What should I do about these symptoms I'm experiencing?

I'm having a lot of pain when I press on my tragus, antitragus, or anywhere in between, and it's been going on since Wednesday. It even wakes me up when I'm sleeping, because it just suddenly starts hurting at random times during the day too. I'm really worried about it. What could be causing this?
You seem to be suffering from furuncle of the ear canal which is common ear infection arising in root of hair follicles. You may need to take antibiotics and painkillers for few days

I'm dealing with this persistent white, thick mucus in my throat, and I need to clear it often, but I don't have a runny nose. Its kinda annoying, and on top of that, I have some gastric issues. Could these things be connected, or what might be going on? It's been worrying me a bit.
The persistent white thick mucus in your throat, accompanied by the need to clear your throat frequently, and gastric issues, may indicate gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), where stomach acid flows up into the throat, causing irritation and mucus production, so consider consulting a gastroenterologist or ENT specialist to discuss treatment options, such as antacids, proton pump inhibitors, or lifestyle changes like dietary modifications and elevated head positioning during sleep.
