Most or all humans have a sensitive eardrum in their ears but no such sensory membrane in their noses.

  The q-tip in nose tests felt awful. Go and try it if you don't believe me.

    Anecdotal story: My ENT said that most people administering the nasal swab didn’t understand anatomy, that is why the Covid swab was so painful.

    I've done plenty of qtip nasal swabs. It was not comfortable, but it wasn't painful, either. I, for one, do not have an eardrum in my nostrils.

      It's uncomfortable enough that nobody would go to a restaurant that subjects them to it.
