Woman, 29, who rushed to A&E with a ‘fluttering’ in her ear, bursts into tears of horror after hearing there’s a SPIDER inside

There’s nothing like falling asleep to the sound of nature – although it’s less inviting when the nature in question is literally in your ear.

That’s a lesson that TikTok user Desirae Kelly was confronted with in dramatic fashion recently, when she endured the traumatic experience of waking up to the sound of something strange — only to discover that the sound was actually a spider burrowing into her ear .

The 29-year-old from Missouri originally posted a video as she sat in the emergency room waiting for the nurse to remove the arachnid from her ear, tearfully telling viewers that she was ashamed — and disgusted — by the situation.

The clipwhich has already been viewed more than 21 million times, left thousands of shocked users eagerly and anxiously awaiting the rest of her chilling story.

In a follow up video, Desirae recalled waking up around 5 a.m. and feeling something in her ear, describing it as a “fluttering” sensation.

“I thought it was the tassels on the end of my duvet, so I went back to sleep,” she explained in the video, which has been viewed more than 2 million times.

“About 10, 15 minutes later I wake up again, and this time I hadn’t completely fallen asleep (so) I actually felt something moving in my ear,”

Not wanting to risk rinsing out her ear herself, Desirae decided to wait until the emergency room opened at 8am. However, as she waited, the sensation changed from ‘fluttering’ to painful.

“It felt like a big clump of earwax was moving at the bottom of my eardrum,” she explained. It was so awkward.”

She briefly admitted that she was convinced it was “just earwax,” but her “worst fear” was confirmed when the nurse took a look and told her “there’s something in your ear.”

Desirae admitted that she immediately started crying as the nurse prepared to flush her ear and remove anything obstructing it.

“There’s a creature in my ear,” she groaned, remembering that she was in the medical center. “I’m not nervous about this pain, I’m nervous about what we’re trying to flush away.”

Desirae admitted that she started crying as the nurse prepared to flush her ear and remove anything obstructing it after confirming that there was definitely something in her ear.

Desirae said she felt everything “crawling” out of her ear. “I tilted my head (and) I saw something out of the corner of my eye fall and land on my sweater,” she recalled

The nurse then started to flush out her ear, but nothing happened and Desirae felt whatever was in her ear continuing to move.

“She’s refilling the water bottle (and) I feel things moving,” the panicked woman said. “And I’m like, oh my god, something’s moving, something’s moving.”

But what happened next exceeded her expectations – and left her disgusted.

“I felt whatever it was crawling out of my ear,” she explained. ‘ tilted my head (and) I watch out of the corner of my eye as something falls and lands on my sweater.

“I should have known this wasn’t just a normal insect,” she said.

“The nurse jumped back a step, instinctively she jumped back a little bit, and then immediately comes back and puts my sweater on because it was living on me,” the shocked woman continued.

She said the nurse told her it was a “common house spider” that had decided to call her ear canal home (stock image)

TikTok users applauded her bravery; many admitted that they could not have endured the same ordeal

“So I stand up, and I do this as it falls from my shoulder to the floor. And I see it crawling. I see this black spider crawling across the damn floor with all eight legs,” Desirae recalled in disgust.

“The first thing I did was cry and throw up,” she admitted.

According to Desirae, it was a common house spider that crawled into her ear.

“(The nurse) checked my ear, there was nothing left,” she assured viewers. “(No) eggs, limbs, extra buddies, nothing. But I’m traumatized.’

Shocked TikTok users commented on the post, with many stating that they couldn’t handle the unwanted ear guest.

“I would just die,” declared another.

“Girl I’m traumatized and I wasn’t even there,” another agreed.

‘You lived through my worst nightmare. I’m so glad you’re doing well!’ wrote one viewer.

According to Very good health, If you suspect you have a bug in your ear, the best way to remove it is to tilt your head to the side and shake it gently.

If not, they suggested pouring a small amount of vegetable oil or warm water into the ear canal. However, if you are unsure, seek medical attention.
