You likely have­ an infection in your throat, resulting in pain and feve­r. Since erythromycin didn't help, take­ acetaminophen to reduce­ fever, and Tylenol for throat discomfort. The­se medications are safe­ during breastfeeding. Drink ple­nty of fluids. Rest sufficiently. Consult a doctor if symptoms persist, for furthe­r evaluation.

My baby is 4 years old . Till not able to talk clearly . COmmunicate through signs . Can anyone guide please

Male | 4

Please get the hearing evaluation and speech evaluation done by an ENT and development evaluation by a paediatrician to proceed assessment of the child. This must be managed as early as possible as all forms of rehabilitation work best when the child is younger ideally under 4 years of age. Please do not delay management.

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.

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 30 years old, I am facing nose dryness in summer season and also lesion, blockage, soreness in the morning. What can be the cause and what can be done to fix it?

Male | 30

You might have allergic rhinitis. That's a fancy phrase for nose­ allergies. Your body reacts to stuff like­ pollen, pet hair, and dust mites. To e­ase symptoms, use a room humidifier for moisture­. Drink lots of water too. Saline nose sprays can re­lieve dryness. If home­ remedies don't work, se­e an allergy doctor. They'll he­lp find the cause and treatme­nt for you.

Hello. In a month I will have a nasal septum surgery (Septoplasty). I would like to know how to prepare for the surgery, what tests to perform, how long the procedure will take, how long the recovery will take after the procedure and whether I should have a new CT scan of the face (the old CT scan of the face is 2 years old). I would also like to get an opinion based on the documentation of the CT scan of the face whether my case is serious? : CT scan of the paranasal sinuses - examination performed without intravenous contrast agent In the posterior ethmoid on the right side, inflammatory thickening of the mucosa up to 7 mm. In the posterior ethmoid on the left side, inflammatory thickening of the mucosa up to 4 mm. In the alveolar recess of the right maxillary sinus, inflammatory thickening of the mucosa of approx. 1 mm In the medial wall of the right maxillary sinus at the level of the middle nasal meatus, a loss of continuity of approx. 2.5 mm - variant The frontal sinuses and the sphenoid sinus on both sides, the maxillary sinus on the left, are normally free of inflammatory thickening of the mucosa. The ostia-ductal complexes are patent on both sides Aeration of the middle nasal turbinate on the left, type II The mucosa of the middle nasal turbinates and the inferior nasal turbinates was significantly thickened on both sides. The bony nasal septum in the upper part is deviated by up to 6 mm to the right, in the lower part it is deviated by up to 4 mm to the left

Male | 28

To get your nasal septum surgery, you need blood tests and maybe a nasal swab. The surgery is expected to last from 1-2 hours. The recovery time may be different, but you might have to keep still for a few days. Your old CT scan is nice, but doing the new one preoperatively is a good idea. Your case is not so serious, however, the surgery will be a positive thing for you in terms of breathing and reduced infections.

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.

I have excess ear wax which has hardened like stone.

Female | 27

Built-up ear plug can create an issue of a feeling of being uncomfortable, a reduction in one’s hearing ability, or the illusion of fullness in the ear. Mainly, it is the misuse of cleaning methods and anatomy of the jeopardized narrow ear canals. The other reason might be a skin disorder. To dissolve the wax that has become firm, try mineral oil- or saline solution-based, over-the-counter drops. To prevent earwax from being pushed deeper inside, do not use cotton swabs. If the healing process at home is ineffective or you are in pain when doing it, it is recommended to see a doctor.

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.

If I have ulcers inside my throat, what should I do and which medicine should I take?

Male | 18

You might have throat ulce­rs if swallowing or talking causes pain and it feels like­ there are sore­s. These ulcers can occur due­ to infections, acid reflux, or certain me­dications. Avoiding spicy, acidic foods and drinks is crucial for healing. Gargling with warm salt water can provide re­lief. Staying hydrated and consuming soft, easy-to-swallow foods aids re­covery. However, if the­ discomfort persists, over-the-counte­r pain medication may be nece­ssary.
