hello!
I am hopefully not bothering anyone on here by asking questions. I signed up because I have been increasingly getting worriedly by two situations that happened in the past week. I want to believe the increase is fear related but I need some honest advice.
First, I hit my head hard against the ceiling when I was trying to change a lightbulb. Now it always does a hollow sound when you knock giants that part of the ceiling because it's a slope. I was wondering about bone conduction? A hit on the head makes the whole skull vibrate and doesn't this get to the ear? I am not sure how this bone conduction thing work!
And then, and even worse and much scarier is that I woke up with my ear glued to the skin of my upper arm. I was sleeping on my side and during the night, I ditched the pillow to sleep on my arm and then it must have happened. I jerked away because you startled awake and then it made a weird wet suction noise when you got it free. I have read that the suction from kiss or from removing an earplug is damaging. Now I am very scared that this happened! Does anybody have experience or literature regarding this suction? Please don't make fun of me I really am worried. My partner says it happens to him all the time and he never thought much about it and to stop being silly but I know he always downplays noises and such to stop me from worrying.
Thank you for your time. I hope my English was okay as I am not a native speaker!
