Ear pain, redness, and sometimes a fever can be signs of an ear infection. It happens when your ear gets germs in it. You need to visit an ENT specialist so that they can help you get better. Rest, take the medicine, and apply warm compresses to your ear.

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.

I had strep and an ear infection. I went to urgent care twice. I took clindamycin for 10 days and the strep went away, so did the pain in the ear. It’s still clogged and I can’t hear much though (now 3 days past the last dose of antibiotics). There’s not pain, just pressure and little hearing. And when I yawn/blow my nose/etc it crackles like it wants to pop but it won’t clear. How long should I wait for it to clear before I go to a doctor again about it..?
Female | 25
The pressure and crackling you're feeling may be due to fluid trapped behind your eardrum, often after an infection. It usually clears on its own within a few weeks. In the meantime, you can try chewing gum, yawning, or performing the Valsalva maneuver (close your mouth, pinch your nose, and blow gently) to open the Eustachian tube. If the problem persists for more than a couple of weeks or worsens, it's best to see an ENT doctor for further treatment.

My daughter aged about 30 yrs. Since afternoon today facing tremendous pain in right ear. What should I do. I have given her Zerodol p after consulting with one doctor over phone. Now pain is slightly low than before.
Female | 30
Ear pain in adults could be due to different causes, such as ear infections, wax buildup, or maybe even some problems with the jaw. It is so nice of you to give Zerodol P, it can help with pain and inflammation. If the pain is not subsiding or is worsening, go to an ENT doctor for a thorough examination and the necessary treatment.

I'm Rashmi, 27 years old. I'm a tb patient. Recently from past 5-6 days I'm having headache. So went for a CT brain scan. The results were normal. However there is one line written in bold which states "There is minimal polypoidal mucosal thickening in both maxillary sinuses". Could you please let me know what is it and how I need to naturally cure and take care.
Female | 27
It appears that inflammation within your sinuses might be responsible for your headache. When sinuses become aggravated or infected, this condition arises. You may experience facial pressure, nasal congestion, or even coughing. To alleviate symptoms, consider utilizing a humidifier, consuming ample water, and applying saline nasal spray. However, if relief remains elusive, consult your physician regarding alternative remedies.

You need immediate medical attention by an ENT. Your ear examination and audiological assessment is of extreme importance for prompt treatment.
Tab Vertin aggravates acid reflux, adding an antacid will help with the nausea.

Ever since I was diagnosed with allergies rhinitis I can't stop producing clear mucus and Iits been six months
Female | 22
It is caused when the body is fighting off allergens, such as dust and pollen, in the nasal passages. This kind of disease is seasonal and it may become severe if not controlled. Employing saltwater nasal sprays, keeping away from various triggers like dust, and staying hydrated can reduce the production of the excreted mucus.

Having some things inside the throat
Female | 20
Feeling like something is stuck in your throat can happen for several reasons. You might have eaten too quickly or didn’t chew your food well enough. Acid reflux or stress can also cause this sensation. To help relieve it, try drinking plenty of water, eating slowly, and not rushing your bites. Managing stress can also help reduce this feeling. Following these tips may provide some relief.

Hi! I am 25 years old female I have severe pain and seellung in my ear I have been sick with flu from last week when it was clear my ear pain started. In my past i have ruptured ear drum but using ear drops my infection cleared After six years i again sick with ear infection
Female | 25
Pain and swelling in your ear can result from infections, especially following flu symptoms. Since you have a history of eardrum issues, it's crucial to monitor these symptoms closely. Utilizing warm compresses may provide temporary relief, and over-the-counter pain relievers can help manage discomfort. However, I strongly advise consulting a healthcare professional for a thorough examination. They can determine the underlying cause and recommend appropriate treatment, which may include antibiotics or further care.

Heavy Tonsillitis and headache and cold cough and fever
Male | 27
Tonsillitis is caused by both viruses and bacteria. To feel better, you need to get adequate sleep, drink lots of fluids, and use over-the-counter painkillers. It is good to try gargling with warm salt water as well to relieve the sore throat. Severe or unbearable symptoms then visit a healthcare professional.

Breathing difficulties suggest a nasal polyp, a tissue growth blocking nasal passages. Symptoms include laboured breathing, temporary relief from nasal sprays, and persistent blockage. Visiting an ENT specialist is advisable for diagnosis and suitable treatment options.

What is pansinusitis? Normal or not?
Male | 55
Pansinusitis pertains to a condition that involves all the paranasal sinuses, according to inflamed sinuses, which is most often a result of an infection, an allergy, or nasal polyps. Common symptoms include face pressure or pain, congestion, a decreased sense of smell, and a thick nasal discharge. Although the presence of these symptoms is a quite natural thing, one should ask a doctor if they remain as such or become worse. The treatment generally consists of decongestants, nasal sprays, and eventual antibiotics. Additionally, keeping oneself well hydrated and using a humidifier can be supportive of the recovery process. If still you have any issues, talk to a healthcare provider.

I had a runny nose 2 days ago so I took panadol that has 30mg pseudoephedrine. It stopped running within 1 hour. But yesterday I woke up in the middle of the night with a blocked nose and it would only clear up when I stood up. Today I still have a congested nose no mucus. When I close my mouth I can’t breathe through my nose at all
Female | 25
It sounds like you may be experiencing nasal congestion, which can result from various factors such as allergies or a mild viral infection. The blockage while lying down could be due to gravity affecting nasal drainage. Staying hydrated and using a humidifier may help ease your symptoms. Over-the-counter saline sprays are also beneficial for relieving congestion. If your symptoms persist or worsen, I recommend consulting a general physician to rule out any underlying issues.

My left ear got blocked when I was having cold how to get rid of it
Female | 19
Your left ear was blocked when you had a cold. It can be the case when you have a cold that the tube linking your ear and throat becomes swollen, and consequently, your ear feels blocked. To help eliminate it, you can yawn, chew gum, or apply a warm cloth to your ear. If it doesn't get better, talk to an ENT specialist.

I am experiencing symptoms including a runny nose, swollen eyes, ear pressure, sudden sneezing, and occasional breathing problems. These issues began around 2009, when I was in matric, and persist today, August 23, 2024. I have tried various anti-allergy medications such as Baydal, Fexet D, Telfast D, and Mytika over the years, but they only provide temporary relief. This week (August 20, 2024), I used Fexet D, Azomax for 3 days, and steamed with Vicks for 3 days. Despite these efforts, the sneezing and nasal congestion (alternating between the left and right side) remain unchanged. In the morning and at night, I sometimes notice a white fluid dripping from my head to my nose, and it occasionally affects my chest, throat, and eyes. Between 2018 and 2020, I visited the NIH Allergy Centre, where I was diagnosed with allergic rhinitis. But i think due to long travelling these vaccine are expire 16 Hrs travelling.and It also does not Effects me.Due to the COVID-19 Travelling and distance, I was unable to travel from Rajanpur to Islamabad and I stoped this vaccine each week In 2020 . and I believe my vaccine may have expired. However, the (antibiotics+Antiallergic) medicine treatment did not provide long relief. which could be contributing to the ongoing issues.

It appears you are going through allergic rhinitis, which is responsible for your runny nose, swollen eyes, ear pressure, sneezing, and breathing difficulties. These symptoms have been persisting for a long time despite trying different medications. The allergy shots that you are receiving may have expired, thus not giving you enough relief. Seek consultation from an allergist to review your treatment plan and consider updating your allergy shots to manage your symptoms effectively.

From last few months sometimes my ears feel dry with transparent sticky thing and now from few days im noticing dry blood very lil quantity
Female | 19
These could be signs of swimmer's ear. This ear issue happens when water gets stuck inside the ear canal. The trapped water can make the ear feel dry, itchy, and irritated. You may even notice a liquid or bloody discharge coming from your ear. Don't worry, dealing with a swimmer's ear is simple. Keep your ears dry by using ear plugs or a swim cap when swimming. Avoid putting things like cotton swabs or fingers inside your ear canal. Use an ear cleaning solution made for sensitive ears. Gently rinse out the ear canal with the solution as directed. If problems continue after a few days, visit a doctor. An ENT specialist can examine your ear and prescribe treatment.

Right ear voice not responding
Male | Utkarsh singh
You might be having some issues with your ear if the sound coming from your right ear is not working as it should. This could be the result of a foreign object blocking the ear canal or a malfunction of the nerves in the ear. To solve this, you should consult an audiologist who is a specialist in hearing disorders. The audiologist will be able to diagnose the problem and also help you improve your hearing.

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.

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.
