You may be dealing with an ear infection. The germs, whether they are bacteria or viruses, infect your ear and cause a lot of pain, swelling, and even a sensation of blockage in your ear. Sometimes the pain may also radiate to your jaw and neck. Consulting an ENT specialist will enable you to obtain the correct treatment, primarily antibiotics for the infection.

I have a strange lump on my neck, dizziness, constant sweats, a cough, sore throat and headaches
Male | 14
Swell in your neck, dizziness, sweat, cough, sore throat, and headache are conditions that an infection can lead to. Infections might have caused these symptoms in such situations. It's paramount to go and see an ENT specialist so they can tell what's happening and what treatment suits you. These signs should not be ignored, they might be the first symptoms of a more severe condition whose treatment should be done quickly.

I accidentally drink lizoil through the nose and my nose is burning
Female | 16
When a situation like this arises, your nose can easily get very sensitive and even start to hurt. It can be that you may also find yourself sneezing or coughing a lot. To help with this, first, gently blow your nose to get rid of any leftover oil and then rinse your nose with cool water.

मुझे नाक मैं प्रोब्लम है मेरा नाक अंदर से बंद है उसमे फोड़ा जैसा कुछ है
Male | 17
Your stuffy nose and lump point to an infection. Viruses, and bacteria, get in your nose, leading to these symptoms. Pain or swelling could accompany it too. Stay hydrated, get some rest, and use saline spray - this might help clear things up. But if it sticks around, you may need to talk to an ENT specialist.

Hey I am 35 years old I been getting throat pain in my left ear and throat
Male | 35
An aching throat that extends toward your left ear may indicate that you have infected ears or a sore throat. You might have the feeling that your throat is scratchy and it could be painful to swallow. At times, even when chewing or talking the pain may worsen. To relieve your throat, take warm liquids such as tea and water. If this condition persists or becomes severe, visit an ENT specialist.

Hello Dr. Puri, I got an injury on my upper nose between eyes 2 weeks back, while playing badminton doubles. I am facing some hardness and swelling between right eye and nose. Request appointment with you.
Male | 51
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.

I have sore throat, pain, clogged ears , coughing and blowing my nose a lot
Female | 58
A sore throat, stuffy ears, cough, and frequent nose blowing suggest you have a common cold or viral infection. These result from your body battling the virus. To improve, rest well, stay hydrated, and use over-the-counter meds for relief. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, visit an ENT specialist.

I have a white sore in the rear of my throat. It’s been there for about a week. Seems to be getting better
Male | 30
Your sore throat seems typical. A white area behind your throat lasting weekly might indicate a viral illness. This often brings soreness, difficulty swallowing, and possibly mild fever. Consuming warm liquids and resting plenty aids your immune response. However, if symptoms persist or breathing becomes difficult, visit an ENT specialist promptly.

Male | 25
You are probably having some side effects from Candid ear drops. The burning sensation and the ear blockage that happened repeatedly could be caused by an allergic reaction or irritation from the drops. It is important to stop using the drops and avoid putting anything else in your ear. Get the right treatment from an ENT doctor and ensure that your ear heals properly.

I am 26 years old female. My two ears have been blocked for over three weeks and there are no signs it would open. What should I do to get it open?
Female | 26
Earwax buildup often causes this. Hardened wax clogs the ear canal, making you feel full or hear less. Use over-the-counter ear drops to soften wax. Gently flush ears with warm water using a bulb syringe. If this doesn't work, see an ENT specialist for evaluation and treatment.

I've been experiencing sinus problems, such as congestion, pressure, and possibly sinus infections. What could be the underlying cause, and what are my treatment options?
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.

In ear dry skin flakes comes from ear,,and ear repeatedly block,,,I do valsava,,,it's open but again blocked,,,after some times,,what to do,,,,,,,
Male | 24
You are going through some issues with dry skin flakes coming out of your ears and having the feeling of your ear blocking up, even after you have been trying the Valsalva technique. This can happen when the skin in your ear canal gets irritated and sheds the flakes, which subsequently results in a blockage. You can try a gentle ear-cleaning solution to keep your ear clean and moist. If this issue keeps on persisting, you should visit an ENT doctor for more diagnostics.

Hey I have a visible epiglottis and a little bit of tonsils at the back of my tongue I have had a heartburn but not anymore the epiglottis is still visible and so are the tonsils ( only 2 now) but they are not painful but I just feel like something is stuck on the right side my throat whenever I swallow saliva and a little bit of a burning sensation after taking an acid reflux medication. Is it normal or a sign of throat cancer
Female | 20
A visible epiglottis and slightly enlarged tonsils can be normal for some people, but the sensation of something stuck in your throat and the burning after taking acid reflux medication might need further evaluation. These symptoms are not necessarily a sign of throat cancer, but it's important to get them checked. I strongly recommend visiting an ENT specialist to assess your condition and provide the right advice.

I woke up this morning with a swollen nose on one side of my nose, I think it might be an allergic reaction, because I inhaled food that someone was cooking it was very strong and I started sneezing and bringing out mucus and woke up to a painful swollen nose
Female | 22
It appears that a congestion in the nose is the result of the body's backlash to an allergen you are coming into contact with. When the powerful aroma reached your lungs, your body probably sneezed and let out mucus. Causing the nose to be inflamed, most likely on one side only. A saline spray can relieve the swelling and alleviate the pain. Take care to avoid the foods that cause your symptoms.

Male | 33
You might have tinnitus, which happens when you hear ringing, buzzing, or other noises in your ears. This might happen because of loud sounds, ear infections, or stress. To get over tinnitus follow the suggestions of initiating off loud sounds, cutting the stress level, and mind covering the ringing with white noise generators. In case it is giving you a lot of trouble, visit an ENT specialist for more professional advice.

Sore throat, severe pain when swallowing, the pain is constant, started 4 days ago with a headache, a fever and sore throat, the fever and headache went away but the throat pain got progressively worse i would describe it as sharp pain, i am on 5 types of medicine including ibuprofen but nothing works, i also tried gargles and all sorts of remedies and the do not work as well
Male | 18
You may have an acute tonsillitis infection. When the tonsils become infected with viruses or bacteria this frequently occurs. The fever and headache you experienced are common symptoms of this condition. Since taking medication has not helped, it is necessary to get a proper diagnosis from an ENT specialist. This will enable them to prescribe stronger antibiotics which should make you feel well. Do not forget to drink plenty of water and have enough bed rest.

I went to a ENT specialist last week who removed some earwax plug from my right ear. Since last week my ear feels itchy inside sometimes, whenever I start being active with it (moving it or touching it with my finger). What can be the cause ? Probably not earwax as I went to the doctor last week.
Male | 31
The ear getting treated for wax buildup is fantastic news! However, itchiness in the ear canal post-procedure may occur. This results from skin irritation caused by disturbance during cleaning. Don't insert objects or scratch inside your ear. This discomfort should subside naturally. But if symptoms worsen, consult your ENT specialist immediately.
