It's important to get evaluated by an ENT specialist for the pain in your right lymph node under the jaw, especially if it worsens with chewing and swallowing.

I am a 16 year old male, and I have been experiencing earaches that sometimes come and go, it feels only a little but is disturbing, it first happened in the right ear and then in the left ear and has been going on for more than 2 months until now, I have visited an ENT doctor and was told that my ear paper is fine, just a little red and was prescribed antibiotics and painkillers for a week but that seems to be gone a month ago, I have been feeling the pain until now, I never cover my ears when I shower because I have OCD, I also always use earphones but since I had the earache I have used the volume one to three, and I also seem to hear a whooshing and ticking sound often,
Male | 15
You've been struggling with earaches for a long time already. The redness of the ears is a sign of inflammation. Your earphones habit and not covering your ears while showering may have some impact on this problem. The whooshing and ticking sound you hear might be connected to the earaches. It may be better to reduce earphone usage and keep your ears dry. When the pain doesn't go away, check with your ENT doctor for additional tests.

I am 13 year old girl I have pain in my ear and also swelling.
Female | 13
You might have some ear pain and swelling. When your ear aches and swells, it could be an ear infection. Ear infections can occur when tiny organisms like bacteria and viruses penetrate the ear. Go to an ENT specialist and they will prescribe you medication to treat the infection and improve your health.

Female | 21
It seems that your infection, which is not currently being cured, is getting worse. The constant pain could be because of inflammation and ear pressure. You might want to visit the ENT specialist for a follow-up. Moreover, to alleviate some discomfort, you can apply warm compresses in your ear.

I just have an academic question. Is antibiotics for ear infection met with PPI?
Male | 19
With an ear infection, you may feel pain, pressure, and muffled hearing. Antibiotics are commonly used to cure ear problems derived from bacteria. Among the medications used to treat ear infections, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are usually not included. Moreover, you are even encouraged to consult with an ENT specialist if you suspect any ear infection, and then a proper treatment plan will be recommended.

I have been dealing with increasing ear pain for 2 days, and I am deadly afraid that something is lodged inside. I have pain in my jaw when I attempt to eat solid food, this did not start until after my ear started as well.
Male | 22
Are you possibly interested in the problem with your ear and the pain in your jaw? These various symptoms include ear infections, fluid buildup, and the possible jaw joint problems, among others. Although the sensation of having something stuck can be disconcerting, it is advisable not to play a doctor and communicate with the doctor. I suggest making an appointment with your healthcare provider in order to be assessed. Their examination will reveal the exact problem you might be suffering from, they will solve your worries and offer the right type of treatment.

According to your statement, I think that you have a swollen lymph node because you have an ear infection. It is better to consult an ENT specialist for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Measles, swollen hands&feet plus dizziness
Female | 20
Measles might be the cause of your swollen hands, feet, and dizziness. This highly contagious virus spreads through coughing or sneezing. It has no specific treatment. Rest, drink fluids, and care for yourself until it passes. If infected, avoid others to prevent spreading measles.

Male | 15
It is important to see a doctor right away for this lump near your ear, especially if you feel pain and your mouth is drooping. This lump might be a swollen lymph node or something different that needs attention. The doctor will help determine what is happening and suggest the best treatment for you.

I am suffering from Allergic Rhinitis for more than a week. This happened many times before. The condition is very uncomfortable. Medicines do not produce immediate effects. I do saline wash and take vaour once in the evening. Is it not possible to get it cured permanently?
Male | 70
Sneezing, stuffy or runny nose, and itchiness are the common symptoms of it. Often Allergic Rhinitis is produced by allergens like pollen, dust mites, or pet hair getting inside your body and irritating your immune system. Unfortunately, the permanent cure does not exist, but managing symptoms with a saline wash, antihistamines, and avoiding triggers may make it more manageable.

Dose Pakistani bat's have rabies?
Male | 17
Yeah, Pakistani bats can have rabies. Rabies is a virus that affects the brain and can be deadly if not treated. Once bitten by a bat with rabies, a person may have symptoms like fever, headache, and confusion. The most effective way to prevent rabies is by avoiding contact with such animals as bats among others which might carry the virus. In case you are bitten by a bat, get medical help immediately.

I am 15 years old and I’ve had a really bad tonsil pain on the right side for the last 4 days, my tonsil looks swollen and it has a bunch of white stuff around it and it bleeds every once in a while. What should I do?
Female | 15
You could have tonsillitis. When your tonsils, which are small organs in the back of your throat, get infected or inflamed, it's called tonsillitis. Symptoms may include throat pain, swollen tonsils with white patches and sometimes bleeding. To relieve these symptoms you must drink fluids, rest well, and gargle with warm salt water gently. In case they persist or worsen, you should consult an ENT specialist for further evaluation and treatment.

What decongestant can i take while breastfeeding
Best is to take nasal decongestant sprays for a short duration as prescribed by your physician. It's locally acting, quick relief and a negligible amount is absorbed into the circulation.

Am a 27 Y/O female. I got a cold about 2 weeks ago and I’m having a hard time getting over it. I still have wheezing, a wet cough, extreme fatigue, and phlegm, but my main issue is that my ear became very “stuffy” and it felt like there was fluid In Them. I wake up with drainage, and they pop often. I have pictures of my inner ear to share for more detail. I had tubes when I was young, and I had a very traumatic accident happen while they were in place, and my ears have been a pain ever since. I get extremely painful pressure when I fly to the point where I cry the whole flight if I don’t have my special ear plugs. And heaven forbid I get an ear infection. I cry anytime I have to put In ear drops

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.

Female | 27
You might be suffering from strep throat. Strep throat is caused by bacteria that can make your throat hurt a lot. The white patches you see are a common sign of strep throat. You may also have a fever and chills. To feel better, you should rest, drink fluids, and take medicine your doctor might prescribe to fight the infection. Gargling with warm salt water can also help soothe your throat.

Male | 58
It's important to address the yellow discharge from your ear, as it can indicate a potential infection or other underlying issue. Common causes include ear infections, fluid buildup, or allergies. Since you've been experiencing this for several months, I recommend seeking medical attention if you haven't already. A ENT specialist can provide a thorough examination, possibly including an ear exam and treatment options tailored to your condition.

Female | 28
It sounds like you're experiencing throat pain and cough, which can often stem from viral infections or irritants. Since you have no fever or runny nose, this may not be a serious concern. You can continue using throat lozenges and gargling warm salt water for comfort. Dolo 650, which contains paracetamol, can help relieve pain; just ensure you follow dosage instructions. However, if your symptoms persist or worsen, I recommend consulting a physician for tailored advice.

Male | 22
You may be having a condition called oral thrush. It is the result of a fungus that multiplies in your mouth. Symptoms include a dry throat, white spots on the back of your throat, feeling sick when eating, and pain when eating dry foods. To help, try eating soft foods and avoid sugary stuff. Drink enough water and practice good mouth hygiene. If it doesn't get better, visit an ENT specialist.

A few days ago I experienced severe ear pain and the ear was bleeding. When I went to the doctor, he told me that my eardrum was leaking because I had a cold. After taking some antibiotics the pain subsided. But I still feel the sound in my ears. Also doctor gave x-ray (pns om view). Now the report is "Suggestive of left maxillary sinusitis with right maxillary antral polyp and rhinitis". Now what should we do?

If you still feel sound in your ears and your report shows left maxillary sinusitis with a right maxillary antral polyp and rhinitis, it is important to follow up with an ENT specialist. They can provide you with the best treatment options for your condition.
