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.

How can I stop snoring at night permanently
Male | 34
Among the leading causes of this are nasal congestion, obesity, alcoholic drinks, and sleeping posture. Should you want to cut down or completely get rid of this, think of lifestyle changes like controlling your weight, sleeping on your side, and not drinking alcohol before bedtime. Besides, using nose strips or humidifiers may help. If none of these strategies give you satisfaction, it would reinforce the importance of professional help to discover the underlying health issues and customized treatments.

Male | 41
You might have an inflamed lymph node or possibly a salivary gland issue. Since the pain increases with chewing and swallowing, it's important to visit an ENT specialist. They can give a proper diagnosis and suggest the best treatment. Self-medication can be risky, so please consult a doctor for the right guidance.

Hey I have a visible epiglottis and a little bit of tonsils at the back of my tongue I have had a heartburn but not anymore the epiglottis is still visible and so are the tonsils ( only 2 now) but they are not painful but I just feel like something is stuck on the right side my throat whenever I swallow saliva and a little bit of a burning sensation after taking an acid reflux medication. Is it normal or a sign of throat cancer
Female | 20
A visible epiglottis and slightly enlarged tonsils can be normal for some people, but the sensation of something stuck in your throat and the burning after taking acid reflux medication might need further evaluation. These symptoms are not necessarily a sign of throat cancer, but it's important to get them checked. I strongly recommend visiting an ENT specialist to assess your condition and provide the right advice.

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 went to barber shop yesterday . While cutting my ear hair by a hair trimmer there was a cut and blood came . Am I at risk of hiv
Male | 38
You can relax, getting a little scratch on your hand from a trimmer at the hairdresser's doesn't make you prone to falling ill with HIV. HIV doesn't transfer itself through minor bruises, though. Keep it dry and worry about any visible symptoms that could manifest, e.g., redness, swelling, or pain. In case it does not improve or if you feel concerned, you can also make an appointment with a doctor s you can get a peace of mind.

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.

Male | 20
You may have a sinus infection. This will include pain in the eyes and face, plus a fever, headache, and stomach pain. Sinus infections are typically treated by resting, drinking a lot of water, and antibiotics if it is severe. Visit an ENT specialist for this. Remember to take care and also rest as much as you can.

Dear Doctor, From last couple of days i am suffering from acute pain in my throat specially while swallowing anything and also having cough with mucus but mucus is not coming out i can hear the rattling sound from my throat while coughing and after carefully examining my throat i can see that my left side of tonsil has inflammation with several white spots on it the white spots are there on both the tonsils but i can feel the extreme pain at the left side of tonsil only. I am frequently doing saline gargles but its not helping me out. Further i would request you to kindly advise some good medications for the quick relief. Thank you
Male | 41
You may be experiencing acute tonsillitis, resulting in significant discomfort while swallowing and coughing. The presence of white spots suggests a possible infection. Saline gargles are helpful, but additional treatment may be necessary. Over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen can provide relief. Staying hydrated and using throat lozenges may also ease the pain. However, I recommend seeking a healthcare professional for a precise diagnosis and suitable medications, as they may prescribe antibiotics if a bacterial infection is present.

Sir namskar I am 27 year old. I have a problem in my nose when I ct scan that it comes polypoidal mucosal thickening noted in bilateral maxillary sinuses. Is it a cancer simtom.because it was bleeding max days 10 to 15 years
Female | 27
At your age, polypoidal mucosal thickening in the maxillary sinuses is usually not a sign of cancer. It often indicates chronic sinusitis or nasal polyps. However, because you mentioned bleeding for many years, it's important to consult an ENT specialist for a thorough evaluation and proper treatment.

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 left ear has been crackling for a few months now and i got told by a nurse it was blocked and i got my ear syringed two days ago and i was hoping that would stop my ear crackling but it's still crackling after two days since i got my ear syringed is that normal?
Male | 37
Though it's a good thing you got your ear syringed, the ear still crackles which is totally normal. Occasionally, the sensation will last a little while after the procedure. Ear crackling could be the result of the presence of fluid in the middle ear or what is called Eustachian tube dysfunction. Sometimes, you can make yawning or chewing gum movements to relieve the discomfort. If it doesn't get better, see your ENT doctor for more advice.

Ear infection and vertigo in head
Male | 36
Ear infections may give you vertigo, making you dizzy and feel like the room is spinning. Since infections impact your inner ear's balance mechanism, this happens. Ear infection symptoms are ear pain, hearing issues, and drainage. Your ENT specialist might prescribe antibiotics and recommend resting to treat the infection and vertigo.

This could be because of a swollen gland or infection. You should see an ENT specialist immediately so they can examine it; they might prescribe antibiotics for treatment or conduct more tests to determine the cause.

Ears are block, hurts very little, hearing like mini beats in my right ear, no medications taken
Male | 18
It sounds like you may be experiencing a mild blockage in your ear, potentially caused by earwax buildup, sinus issues, or changes in pressure. The sensation of rhythmic sounds could be linked to fluid movement or minor changes in your ear's function. Staying hydrated and gently yawning or swallowing may help relieve discomfort. However, to ensure a proper assessment and appropriate treatment, I recommend consulting a ENT specialist. They can provide a thorough examination and tailored advice.

I feel pressure in my throat or like a lump or something stuck it is like someone held my throat and the pressure is worse I feel like it gets worse during night I had neck pain few days ago I don't know if it is due to my posture or something else now not much pain and my saliva is kinda thick I kinda feel anxious when I think about it I lost 1 kg today and also like that throat thing goes upto my head I kinda feel like that
Female | 17
It's understandable to feel concerned about the sensation in your throat and the pressure you're experiencing. These symptoms can arise from anxiety, muscle tension, or postural issues. Thick saliva and neck discomfort may contribute to this sensation as well. Staying hydrated and practicing relaxation techniques could help alleviate discomfort. However, since these symptoms are persistent and impacting your daily life, it’s advisable to consult a physician. They can provide a thorough evaluation and tailored advice, ensuring you're supported and informed.

I'm curious to know whether i have heard problem or no
Female | 20
The cause of this can be a result of, for example, ear infections, loud noises, or simply getting older. For instance, some symptoms that one may experience involve difficulty following the conversation, asking others to repeat themselves, or increasing the volume of devices. You can go to an audiologist for a hearing test. If needed, an audiologist can suggest many products from wearable hearing aids to an implanted hearing device.

My brother had mumps problem in february. Second day he lost his hearing completely in left ear. With lots of noise in his ear. We consulted many doctors and had lengthy treatment for about 6 months. But zero result. Doctors declared that hearing will never come back. But we want the the tinnitus go away. It damages his life also. Please help
Male | 39
The feeling of noises in the ear, called tinnitus, can be very distressing. Tinnitus in such cases is usually nerve damage caused by the mumps infection. Sadly, in some cases, the hearing loss may not be reversible. To manage the symptoms, your brother can try listening to soothing music, using white noise machines, and avoiding loud noises. Counseling or therapy can also be helpful for the patients.
