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.

Hello doctor, so in 2022 I was diagnosed with typhoid in March. It was a 15-day treatment course. I made a full recovery in 1 month. Then, in July, I found 2 lymph nodes in my neck (level Il & IV), each less than 1cm. They were movable. The FNAC result was left cervical small swelling, reactive lymphoid hyperplasia. The lower one shrank a bit with meds, but today I noticed both nodes are still there and movable, just like 2 years ago. Do l need to get it checked again or is it normal?
Female | 24
Lymph nodes are small defenders in your body that help fight infections. Sometimes, they stay a little swollen even after the infection is gone. In your case, the nodes are small and movable, which is a positive sign. Since they haven’t changed in size over the past two years and aren’t causing any issues, it’s likely just your body’s way of managing past infections. However, it’s a good idea to keep an eye on them. If they grow, become painful, or new symptoms appear, it's best to get them checked again for peace of mind.

I am suffering from sinus problem and najal allergy since my childhood
Female | 20
Sinus issues are the usual culprits for stuffy or runny noses, headaches, and pressure around your eyes and nose. Nasal allergies occur when one's immune system reacts even to innocent substances like pollen or dust. The best way to manage this is by avoiding the triggers such as dust, using air filters, and taking allergy medications.

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.

Having an hoarness of voice since last 7 week , what to do
Male | 44
A hoarse voice for a whopping 7 weeks is a long time, a while for you to be concerned about the fact that it may be serious. Hoarseness, however, can be linked to some conditions such as a cold, acid reflux, or voice overuse. To help your voice heal, try drinking lots of water, using your voice as little as possible, and resting your voice. If it doesn't get better soon, it's a good idea to see an ENT specialist.

It is quite common to have ear symptoms such as blockage, sensitivity to noise, and tinnitus during pregnancy. These changes are caused by the additional blood flow and hormonal fluctuations that affect your ears. Besides, you may also notice that your hearing changes. First, try a warm compress on your ear and avoid loud noises. If the symptoms persist, mention them to an ENT specialist.

My right side of tonsil is bigger than left side from last one year but since last year it was painless but from last one week it's pains while eating and swallowing and some white patch are also came there .
Male | 21
You might have tonsillitis, where your tonsils (the two lumps at the back of your throat) become swollen and inflamed. This can be caused by bacteria or viruses. The inflammation could be why you feel pain while eating and swallowing, and the white patches indicate an infection. It's important to see an ENT specilaist, as they may recommend antibiotics to treat the infection. Meanwhile, drink plenty of fluids and avoid very hot or spicy foods.

Lump in left side of neck
Female | 20
This might happen if your lymph nodes there become swollen. These are small structures shaped like beans inside your body, which help fight off infection. The bump could be caused by something as simple as a cold or infection; however, sometimes it could mean something more serious. If it hasn’t gone away or is getting larger, see an ENT specialist right away.

Can you use polymyxin b sulfate neomycin sulfate dexamethasone on both ears? They hurt alternately but not all the time. A doctor gave me the prescription but she only said apply to one ear
Female | 40
Ear infections can happen and go away. The medicine helps reduce pain and swelling. Use it properly, one ear at a time. See if it assists with discomfort. If concerns persist or pain stays, inform an ENT specialist immediately. Follow instructions carefully for the best results. Consistent treatment prevents worsening symptoms. Don't hesitate to update your physician if issues remain.

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.

You are likely dealing with an ear infection. The symptoms you are describing, including pain and swelling, typically accompany such an infection. You must visit an ENT specialist who can prescribe the appropriate treatment, for example, antibiotics. Use a warm compress to your ear for the moment to help with the pain.

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.

My left ear is in hole so since 3 year but i go to surgery it increases heartbeat so surgery is cancelled but now my ear is get probblm to me then i go to brain mri so plz find the mri
Female | 28
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.
