i can taste my?

Question

eardrops i put ear drops in my ear and now i can tase them*gags*
is this normal

Answer 1

It is a bad taste, isn't it. But, it is perfectly normal. The eustachian tube connects your inner ear to your throat for drainage purposes.

Answer 2

If I recall correctly, the eustachian tubes connects the middle ear space to the back of the throat. When you put ear drops in your ear canal, that's in the outer ear... The tympanic membrane or eardrum should separate the two parts of the ear.

If your eardrums are punctured, then I guess it's possible to taste it via the ET's...

But if they are intact, then this should not occur.

Answer 3

yes, ear and mouth and nose all are connected. ENT.
Thats why if u sneeze hard u get a tingling in your ears.
if u put ear drops, some trivkle down to the throat.

Answer 4

Yes it is normal, you can taste your ear drops because ear, nose and throat are enter connected.

Answer 5

Yes it is normal. Your ears are connected to high in the back of your throat. Don't worry.

Answer 6

Yes it is very normal. I've had ear infections through most of my childhood and believe me, I've tasted every nasty thing dropped into my ears...very very bitter isn't it? Gag!

Answer 7

It's normal. I'm not a doctor haha, but I know somehow your ears, nose, and mouth are all connected somehow. It does taste gross. Try drinking some brown pop afterwards.

Answer 8

Your ears, nose, and throat are all connected and meet up in your lower throat. it is normal to taste thing like that. that is why when you get an ear infection or any nose problems, your throat starts to hurt of you build fluid build up in you chest.

Answer 9

Yes. The ear channel (way far back) and throat is connected

Answer 10

Probably, a tube in your ear (eustachin) runs into your throat.
