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.

My husband has cold and cough from last 6 month.in x-ray detect sinus.but he had not pain in any area of face.but he is suffering from cold and cough.i m consulting Ent for many times but no result.what to do? Which report suggest me
Male | 43
Long-lasting colds and coughs may point to sinus troubles. For relief, a sinus CT scan is wise. This deeper look inside his sinuses explains the issue. Then a treatment matching his case can start. The skilled ENT will guide the next steps based on scans.

throat pain bumps in throat synus
Male | 38
Your throat seems to have a viral germ infection. It makes your throat hurt, get bumpy, and feel stuffy. The illness spreads when people cough or sneeze germs. To feel okay, rest up, drink warm drinks, and use a humidifier. You can buy medicine for pain too. But if it doesn't get better soon, see an ENT specialist.

Female | 19
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.

These signs could point towards a sinus infection, which causes pain and pressure in these areas. Treatment usually involves drugs that relieve symptoms as well as address the infection itself so it is important for you to get checked by an ENT specialist.

My ear has had weird pressure changes over the last year and has random drainage. When I clean it out, it’s always dark brown/goopy and smells really bad. Today I just pulled out a big glob of something blueish/gray and thought it was a bug. What should I do?
Male | 26
You might have an infection in your ear, which is causing the weird variations in pressure, dark brown/goopy drainage, bad smell, and the blueish/grey glob you found. It's called otitis externa. It's important to see an Ent specialist doctor on time to get the right medications. Refrain from inserting anything inside your ear or getting it wet.

My ear problem si contact ent doctor
Male | 48
Issues related to the ear can be reflected in pain, uneasiness, or difficulty with the ear. Typical triggers consist in infections, allergies, or wax buildup. To ameliorate the condition, the first way to go is to take over-the-counter painkillers and apply hot compresses. Nevertheless, it's very important to go to get a specialist's view particularly if the symptoms don't improve, deteriorate, or in case there occurs fever or liquid drainage. An ears, nose, and throat specialist with a great deal of experience can properly diagnose you and recommend suitable treatments tailored to you. Keeping a healthy body should come first.

I am a 26 year old female who has been dealing with ear pain and jaw pain for how 5+ days and right now as I’m typing this, my right ear is getting worse. It’s keeps throbbing, vibrating, etc. this is all while trying to get rid of a cough I have as well as a runny nose and headache. What should I do?
Female | 26
It looks like otitis media is the most likely reason, which is an infection in the middle ear. This condition can cause ear pain, jaw pain, and a feeling of throbbing or vibrating in your ear. The cough, runny nose, and headache could be related or separate issues. You must visit an ENT specialist to obtain the right medication. During the waiting time, you may use a warm compress on your ear to relieve the pain.

I cant hear properly for last 7 days (left ear) I think, its because of heavy ear wax. I once had this problem. So i guessed it. Now what should i do?
Female | 23
Ear wax buildup blocks sound. That could explain hearing trouble. You hear worse in one ear. Also, ear fullness, and discomfort too. Try ear drops first, and soften the wax. If that doesn't work, see an ENT specialist. They can remove the wax safely.

Throught swelling and cold fever also
Male | 24
Throat swelling with a cold fever can mean your body is fighting an infection. These symptoms may consist of a sore throat, trouble swallowing, and being tired. Usually, it is caused by viruses, such as the flu. Warm fluids, resting, and perhaps the use of lozenges may be beneficial. If the symptoms are getting worse or persisting for a long time, it is better to consult an ENT specialist to check for any complications.

In ear dry skin flakes comes from ear,,and ear repeatedly block,,,I do valsava,,,it's open but again blocked,,,after some times,,what to do,,,,,,,
Male | 24
You are going through some issues with dry skin flakes coming out of your ears and having the feeling of your ear blocking up, even after you have been trying the Valsalva technique. This can happen when the skin in your ear canal gets irritated and sheds the flakes, which subsequently results in a blockage. You can try a gentle ear-cleaning solution to keep your ear clean and moist. If this issue keeps on persisting, you should visit an ENT doctor for more diagnostics.

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.

Tinnitus and continue headache
Male | 37
Tinnitus makes you hear noises when there isn't one nearby. A constant headache combined with buzzing sounds could signal stress or loud noise exposure. High blood pressure could also cause it. Relax, avoid loud noises, get plenty of rest. If it persists, see an ENT specialist to identify any other reasons.

I have ear infection too much pain face swelling
Male | 25
You may be suffering from an ear infection. The infection itself is responsible for the pain and swelling in your face. Ear infections develop as a result of the bacteria or virus that infects your ear. On one hand, they may disappear on their own without treatment; on the other hand, if the problem is serious, you should take medicine prescribed by an ENT specialist. Applying a warm cloth to your ear is a good way to soothe the pain for now.

Male | 14
Swell in your neck, dizziness, sweat, cough, sore throat, and headache are conditions that an infection can lead to. Infections might have caused these symptoms in such situations. It's paramount to go and see an ENT specialist so they can tell what's happening and what treatment suits you. These signs should not be ignored, they might be the first symptoms of a more severe condition whose treatment should be done quickly.

You might have an ear infection, which can cause pain and disturb your sleep. Other symptoms could include hearing loss and fluid drainage from the ear. Ear infections are often caused by bacteria or viruses. To ease the discomfort, try using a warm compress on your ear and taking over-the-counter pain relief. If the pain does not go away, make sure to consult an ENT specialist for proper treatment.

I have yellow mucus since 7 days medicine does not treat me i don't know what to do it irritates me too much so give me any treatment or any medicine
Female | 15
If you have yellow mucus for more than 7 days and it doesn't get better with medication, it's likely a sinus infection. You might feel lousy, with headaches or facial pressure too. To help clear it up, try using a humidifier, drink plenty of water, and use a saline nasal spray. But if it persists or worsens, see an ENT specialist.

The right side of my nostril has closed in in recent years and this has lead to hard mucus forming in my nostril and causing a lot of discomfort and pain and making it hard to breathe at times. Would you be able to explain what the cause of this may be and why my nostril is so closed in causing this discomfort and the hard snot forming.
Female | 25
It sounds like you're experiencing nasal obstruction, which can occur due to several factors such as allergies, nasal polyps, or structural issues like a deviated septum. This narrowing can lead to the buildup of thick mucus, resulting in discomfort and difficulty breathing. To alleviate your symptoms, consider using saline nasal sprays to moisturize and clear the passages. However, I recommend scheduling an appointment with a ENT Specialist who can assess your situation and suggest appropriate treatments, which may include medication or other interventions to improve your breathing and comfort.
