Diagnostic Tests And Medications: The diagnostic tests cost and medications may vary according to the patient's condition and differ from hospital to hospital. So, the overall cochlear implant treatment cost can differ depending on the surgeon's diagnostic tests and medications prescribed to the patient.
The Type And Location Of Hospital: Cochlear implant surgery costs in India may vary from hospital to hospital.

Post-Procedure Cochlear Implant Surgery Care

After your cochlear implant surgery, here is some post-procedure care to keep in mind:

● To recover faster, get enough sleep and rest as much as possible. Patients take up to 3 to 6 weeks to recover completely.

● Take some walks every day, depending on your stamina and health. Start by little and gradually increase the duration each day. Walking increases blood flow and prevents conditions like constipation and pneumonia.

● Avoid exerting activities until 4-6 weeks like running, weight lifting, aerobic exercises, jogging, biking, or bicycle riding.

● Avoid bending and sudden head movements for the first 2-3 days after your surgery.

● After you remove your bandage, keep the treated area dry and clean. You can wash the area with slightly warm water daily and then dry it.

Questions & Answers on "Ent Surgery" (299)

I have been experiencing throat pain on my left side since few weeks … I have tachycardia I am on beta blockers , my doctor said for a ultrasound of neck in which level 3 10 into 6 mm benign nodes with maintained fatty hilum . But since few weeks I have pain and I also feel something is stuck and I have ear pain sometimes with toothache

Female | 22

The possible cause of pain in your throat and the feeling of an obstruction in your neck might lie in benign nodes. Once in a while, these nodes can problematically press on a nerve and cause pain. Apart from that, they might also be the culprits of earache and toothache. Therefore, you must schedule an appointment with an ENT specialist to undergo the necessary diagnostic programs.

The swelling and firmness you are having might be due to the soft tissue damage or inflammation due to the trauma. It is necessary to be cautious about these symptoms, as they might last for some weeks. To promote adequate healing and eliminate any unknown issues, I advise you to make an appointment for an extensive assessment.

Female | 46

You could have a common cold. Sore throat, headache, cough, and nasal drainage - these symptoms fit for a common cold. Dry nose too, is a common sign. Colds are viral. They usually resolve within a week or two on their own. To ease symptoms, get rest, stay hydrated, and try over-the-counter remedies for relief.

I have some undescriable thing on my ear since I was 10 years old

Female | 20

The undescriable THING on your ear could be a cyst.. Cysts can appear at any age, and they are usually benign. However, you should consult a doctor to confirm the diagnosis. The doctor MAY recommend removing the cyst if it grows or becomes painful.. Try not to irritate the cyst by rubbing or scratching it. Keep the area clean and dry.. Don't worry;; the cyst is likely not a serious health concern..

I have clod fever and headache.. how to control it .. what's the best treatment

Female | 16

A fever and headache usually tell you that the body is busy throwing away an infection from it, such as a cold virus. Consume plenty of fluids, take rest, and you can also take “over-the-counter” pain relievers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen to help with a headache and fever. Besides, soaking in a warm shower or using a humidifier will resolve your stuffy nose too. If the symptoms worsen consult a doctor.

Male | 18

You might have an inflammation in your right ear. This could be due to the previous fungal infection. The redness and heat you feel could be the result of your body reacting to the irritation. I advise that you see an ENT specialist so that they can check your ear and give you the right treatment.

I am a 22 year old female. I have had this for 4 days now. Saturday morning I woke up feeling feverish and a sore throat, it was red and looked very inflamed. I went to the pharmacy and bought immune booster and Ibupain Forte for the pain. I have had body aches, chills, headaches and feelings of fever for 2 days after Monday morning I throat was painful and had difficulty swallowing and I could feel it was my tonsils, they looked red, inflamed and had white patches on them. Tuesday morning, I went to the clinic at pharmacy and they gave me amoxicillin and pain meds for the pain. I feel much better now however my voice is gone.

Female | 22

The symptoms you have mentioned suggest a throat infection which is most probably of bacterial origin. The white patches seen on your tonsils are another hallmark of this condition. Amoxicillin is a good step as it is the medication prescribed by the clinic that helps deal with the infection. It is vital to finish the entire course of antibiotics, which you are taking even if you feel better. Your lost voice will probably go back to normal as you continue to heal. Ensure that you get enough rest, drink plenty of water, and stick to the medication directions. If your symptoms stay or get worse, it's a good idea to have a follow-up with an ENT specialist.

You have a small protrusion below your chin that is painful to the touch. It might be the case that a lymph node, usually caused by an infection in the body, is swollen. The most common causes are a cold, a sore throat, or even a dental problem. Convincing a lot of water, resting, and eating healthy can be a great help. If it still doesn't get better, see an ENT doctor for more help.

You are dealing with problems in your left ear. That's good you're asking for help. A faster heartbeat during surgery can be scary. It may be from stress or another issue. Your ear hole could hurt. Getting a brain MRI is smart to see what's going on inside your head. The MRI gives pictures to figure out the problem. Be sure to talk to your doctor about the results and what to do next.

Male | 27

Your throat feels uncomfortable, with swollen tonsils causing discomfort on one side. Swollen tonsils affect your voice, sounding unusual. Germs like viruses or bacteria likely caused this throat infection. To ease symptoms, drink warm liquids and eat soft foods. Gargling warm salt water may help too. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical advice from an ENT specialist promptly for proper evaluation and treatment.

Female | 26

You could have sinus issues. When your sinuses are blocked or inflamed, you may end up with congestion, pressure, and even infections. The most common reasons are allergies, infections, or structural problems in your sinuses. Treatment methods can encompass nasal decongestants, saline rinses, steam inhalation, or antibiotics if there is an infection. Besides, you can also replenish the fluids in your body and use a humidifier for symptom relief. If your symptoms don't go away, you should see an ENT doctor for a proper diagnosis and a customized treatment plan.

If you have a fever and you have a cold nose, these are signs of a viral infection. Fever, a runny nose, cough, or fatigue are commonly experienced symptoms. They are also the usual way your body reacts to fighting off an illness. To allow you to relax there is enough support at home. The rest is taking care of yourself, keeping you hydrated and you might need fever and congestion relief over-the-counter medications. Many cases are resolved on their own; however, if your symptoms are not gone in several days or they are getting worse, then the best thing to do is to consult a doctor who will be able to give you proper advice. Your health is of primary importance, thus you should be quick to obtain help.

Male | 25

Prolonged hoarseness can stem from several factors, including past smoking habits and irritation in the throat. To improve your situation, consider eliminating irritants like smoking, staying hydrated, and using humidifiers. Resting your voice and avoiding whispering can also help. However, because of the duration of your symptoms, I encourage you to consult an ENT specialist. They can provide a thorough examination and recommend appropriate treatments, which may include speech therapy or medication.

I’m having Frequent nose bleeds. I’ve had them since a child. Even a slight touch inside the nose will cause a nose bleed or even if soemthing hits my nose gently it bleeds. The nose bleeds lasts for about 10/15 minutes per time and it’s a heavy nose bleed. I have my septum pierced and it only bleeds from the left nostril but even before I had the piercing it kept bleeding. I coughed the other day and it started bleeding and I even woke up and it started bleeding

Female | 22

Your nose issue is a nasal septum deviation. That means your nose's middle part is off-center. One nostril's blood vessels are more exposed, causing bleeding. The piercing might worsen it. To reduce nosebleeds, keep your nose moist with saline solution. Don't pick or rub your nose. Consider visiting an ENT expert for evaluation and treatment.
