It’s common for there to be some pain with an ear infection, as well as pressure, pus, or fluid drainage, and no fever. Ear infections happen when germs get into the ear canal. To help with this problem, attempt to use some warm water to gently clean the outside part of your ear only – do not stick anything inside the ear. If it does not start feeling better soon, visit an ENT specialist because there could be something else going on besides an infection like an injury from scratching too hard.

HI MY ON NOSE DEVIATED AND RESULTS HEAVY SNORING

Male | 35

This often hampers the airway passage because loud breathing comes out only during sleep. Main causes are anatomical differentiations, allergies, or chronic congestion. Use saline nasal sprays or allergy medications, and notice the changes in your condition. If the problem persists, you should be advised to have a check-up with a healthcare professional for a comprehensive assessment and talk about options such as nasal surgeries or other treatments.

I am 32 year boy meri nakh me andar masse ho gye hai uske liye puchna tha sir....

पुरुष | 32

Your symptoms indicate that there may be some granules or mass in your nose, which may be caused by various causes such as allergy or sinusitis. They can cause you to have pain, a blocked nose or difficulty in breathing. To get a solution, you can use a spray that will open the nostrils or a saline rinse. However, it is best to see a doctor first so that he/she can diagnose your situation correctly and give the best treatment. Your health is important and taking professional help is always a good idea.

My grandfather age is 69 before 4 months he had second brain stroke now he has cough in his throat which not come out from his mouth so please doctor how to remove cough from throat

Male | 68

Your grandfather is likely experiencing throat congestion, which is common among stroke people. This could be caused by the fact that after a stroke, a person may have difficulty swallowing. When we swallow, the cough should come out of the mouth. Be sure to hydrate him by drinking lots of fluids. A speech therapist who can teach exercises to improve swallowing and coughing should be seen. Apart from that, he will also be able to make the cough from his throat disappear.

Hello Dr , I am 45 years old and having benign tumor in parotid gland so pls advise on cist of surgery and recovery period pls

Male | 45

A benign parotid gland tumor refers to a non-cancerous growth in a salivary gland located at the side of your ear. Symptoms may include a bulge in the cheek or jaw area. In most cases, surgery is the primary method of dealing with the tumor. In most cases, the recovery time can be a bit longer than a few weeks. Adhering to your doctor's instructions post-surgery is essential for proper recovery.

I am a 27-year-old female and I have dry throat and Malaria for 3 weeks. I've used malaria drugs and antibiotics but the dryness is severe I don't know what to do next.

Female | 27

Dry throat is a condition that can be caused by several factors such as dehydration, infections, or even side effects of medications. You should be glad to know that your proactive approach has already been able to help you. To alleviate your dry throat try drinking more water, using humidifiers, and sucking on lozenges. If still the dryness persists, think of going back to your doctor for further assessment.

I am having throat pain(itchy type) along with ear pain for three weeks. I have taken normal antibiotics but is not working

Male | 37

You likely have a throat infection along with ear pain. The antibiotics you refused might not have helped if it's a viral infection since antibiotics only work on bacterial infections. Throat infections can be caused by viruses like the common cold. Resting your voice, drinking warm liquids, and using throat lozenges can help. If the discomfort continues, seeing a doctor is the best choice.

Fever and cold nose water drop

Female | 20

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.

I have a sore throat and difficulty swallowing

Male | 24

The common cold, flu, or an infection could be responsible for these. Resting, drinking plenty of fluids such as warm teas or soups, and gargling with warm salt water are the best things to do. Eating soft foods and avoiding spicy or acidic foods can also help. If it's getting worse or not getting better after a few days, it's important to let your body rest and recover.
