They do it to me too. It's fucking weird, but it's all connected to the throat anyway, so it almost makes sense some of the nerves are shared.

Probably something do with balance or illness

I'm not a doctor, but from what I've seen it's all the vagus nerve, which is responsible for a whole lot and runs through most of the body... which is why there's a lot of different responses to the inappropriate use of q-tips. Mine is more in line with the meme, lol.

I'm not a doctor either, but from what I've found, you are correct about it being the vagus nerve. It's currently being called Arnold's nerve cough reflex. Here's a link to a 2014 article about it: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4222929/
