Answered on 19th July '24
Please don't start medications without a thorough evaluation by an ENT as not all blocked nose throat pain and cough are the same. For temporary relief, steam inhalation and warm fluid sips will help.

I have ear aches but not sure what it could be causing it
Female | 17
A few different things can cause earaches. Sometimes it is an infection such as one in the ear canal or middle ear where bacteria or viruses have entered. Another cause may be too much ear wax or changes in air pressure. You may find relief by using warm compresses, taking over-the-counter pain medication, and resting. You should see an ENT specialist if your condition doesn’t improve after a few days or get worse.

I am a 24-year-old bachelor student. I have been experiencing a persistent runny nose, frequent sneezing, nasal blockage, and difficulty breathing through both nostrils as one is always blocked alternately. These symptoms worsen when I consume cold drinks or fruits. Additionally, physical exercise and changes in the environment exacerbate my condition. This has been ongoing for the past year, and despite seeking treatment from 2-3 doctors, including homeopathy, I have not found relief. Now, I am exhausted from the ongoing symptoms and would like to identify the root cause and pursue appropriate treatment.

You might have allergic rhinitis, triggered by things like pollen, dust mites, or certain foods. Seeing an allergist can help identify your triggers and recommend treatments such as avoiding allergens, taking medications, or getting allergy shots. Proper treatment is important for feeling better and enjoying life without discomfort.

Thorat itching since 6 days
Male | 25
Six days of throat itchiness is dreadful. Allergies, dry air, and infections can cause an itchy throat. Coughing or sneezing may also occur with this symptom. The itchiness can be relieved by drinking warm liquids, using a humidifier, and keeping hydrated. If it does not go away or gets worse visit an ENT specialist.

What to do if my ear got a bit stuck the last 2 days from a flu i have. I got lots of green mucus from nose and from mouth. No other symptoms. The flu i have it the last 11 days
Male | 26
It sounds like you have a possible ear infection, which is common with flu. Green mucus suggests a bacterial infection. It's best to see an ENT specialist to get the right treatment. Do not delay, as ear infections can worsen.

My brother is having a chaterize procedure today but he notice that his right ear is bleeding not much
Male | 59
Bleeding a bit after getting your ears chaterized isn't rare. You may experience swelling or irritation in the ear canal, which leads to this. If bleeding is light and doesn't happen often, it should stop on its own. Use a damp cloth to gently clean around the ear, but don't put anything inside. Contact an ENT specialist immediately if bleeding persists or worsens.

I am a 22 year old female. I have had this for 4 days now. Saturday morning I woke up feeling feverish and a sore throat, it was red and looked very inflamed. I went to the pharmacy and bought immune booster and Ibupain Forte for the pain. I have had body aches, chills, headaches and feelings of fever for 2 days after Monday morning I throat was painful and had difficulty swallowing and I could feel it was my tonsils, they looked red, inflamed and had white patches on them. Tuesday morning, I went to the clinic at pharmacy and they gave me amoxicillin and pain meds for the pain. I feel much better now however my voice is gone.
Female | 22
The symptoms you have mentioned suggest a throat infection which is most probably of bacterial origin. The white patches seen on your tonsils are another hallmark of this condition. Amoxicillin is a good step as it is the medication prescribed by the clinic that helps deal with the infection. It is vital to finish the entire course of antibiotics, which you are taking even if you feel better. Your lost voice will probably go back to normal as you continue to heal. Ensure that you get enough rest, drink plenty of water, and stick to the medication directions. If your symptoms stay or get worse, it's a good idea to have a follow-up with an ENT specialist.

Male | 31
If you have a sensation of fullness and muffled hearing along with a beeping sound, you may have a condition called tinnitus. A sensation of tinnitus may be due to some causes like ear infections, loud noises, or even stress. To this end, you should avoid exposure to loud sounds, manage stress, and consider seeking advice from an ENT doctor for further evaluation.

I am 28 year old female and i have cold and sore throat yesterday afternoon onwards.
Female | 28
A cold can be expressed by symptoms like a stuffy nose, sneezing, and sore throat. You may be having a cough and/or a runny nose as well. To help your body recover, you should rest, drink plenty of the right kind of liquids like water and warm tea, and to relieve the discomfort of the sore throat try over-the-counter medications like throat lozenges or saline sprays.

Measles, swollen hands&feet plus dizziness
Female | 20
Measles might be the cause of your swollen hands, feet, and dizziness. This highly contagious virus spreads through coughing or sneezing. It has no specific treatment. Rest, drink fluids, and care for yourself until it passes. If infected, avoid others to prevent spreading measles.

I am feelings so much pain inside my ear canal. I don't know why. Yesterday I used small stick to remove my ear wax and today it is paining. Don't know whether it is because of ear infection or heavy wax, so iam here to consult on this problem. Please help me.
Male | 21
Using small sticks to remove ear wax can be risky as it might push the wax deeper or harm the sensitive skin inside. Pains in the ear canal may occur due to infections, direct contact with a stick, or blocking the ear with wax. I recommend not using sticks in the ears. To relieve the pain, you can try using a warm compress on the outside of the ear and avoid putting anything in the ear canal. If the pain does not cease or worsen, consult an ENT specialist.

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.

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.

I have a white sore in the rear of my throat. It’s been there for about a week. Seems to be getting better
Male | 30
Your sore throat seems typical. A white area behind your throat lasting weekly might indicate a viral illness. This often brings soreness, difficulty swallowing, and possibly mild fever. Consuming warm liquids and resting plenty aids your immune response. However, if symptoms persist or breathing becomes difficult, visit an ENT specialist promptly.

I am a 15 year old male and for the past 2 or 3 days I have had pain in my left semi-outwards upper ear. It feels sort-of like a bump and doesn't constantly hurt but hurts more if moved or touched (finger, airpod, etc.). It's not a sharp pain or anything, it has been more of a pressure-like pain at times. It's right below the surface and not in my inner ear. What might this be?
Male | 15
You may have an external ear infection, commonly known as “swimmer’s ear.” Signs and symptoms of it could be pain, which may worsen when touching the outside of the ear or tugging on the earlobe, as well as a sensation that your ear is full inside. Water trapped in the ear or skin irritation can cause this infection. You could help yourself feel better by trying to keep your ears dry and taking nonprescription pain relievers. However, if the pain doesn’t go away or becomes severe, you should see a ENT specialist.

I have been using sudafed nasal spray for about 5 days for a nasal drip. I stopped yesterday and have been feeling extremely congested like my sinus is swollen. Could this be rebound congestion? I've been using sinus rinse and a little relief but just feels like there could be some swelling
Male | 40
You could be suffering from rebound congestion. This is common when people use nasal sprays such as Sudafed for more than a couple of days. It may cause you to have swollen nasal passages with a feeling of being more congested. The saline sinus rinse is excellent at relieving the swelling. It's best to avoid overusing the nasal spray to prevent rebound congestion.

Sore throat, severe pain when swallowing, the pain is constant, started 4 days ago with a headache, a fever and sore throat, the fever and headache went away but the throat pain got progressively worse i would describe it as sharp pain, i am on 5 types of medicine including ibuprofen but nothing works, i also tried gargles and all sorts of remedies and the do not work as well
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.

Female | 18
You likely scratched your throat, leading to discomfort. The object may have scratched or caused swelling in your throat area. Throat pain can sometimes radiate toward the ear region. Staying hydrated by consuming ample water aids in soothing the throat discomfort. However, if the pain persists or worsens, seeking medical attention becomes advisable.

Why do u loose your voice for no reason
Female | 52
When you lose your voice without any clear reason, it's called laryngitis. Your vocal cords swell up, making you hoarse or quiet. This happens due to loud talking, singing, or catching a cold. To recover quickly, avoid talking much, sip warm drinks often, and inhale steam. Within a week, your voice should return to normal.

If you notice blood leaking from your ear without pain or swelling, it could be due to various reasons like a minor injury or a rupture in the ear drum. It's important to consult an ENT specialist for a proper diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
