Question 1

I'm really concerned about my hearing. Over the past four months, I've been experiencing sensorineural hearing loss, mixed hearing loss, and tinnitus. The sounds I'm dealing with are around 60 to 70 dB. Could you help me understand what's going on and what options I might have?

Accepted Answer

Chronic cold symptoms may indicate chronic sinusitis.

Cetirizine helps alleviate symptoms, but a permanent cure depends on the underlying cause.

Possible treatments for chronic sinusitis:

- Antibiotics (if bacterial infection)
- Nasal corticosteroids
- Saline nasal irrigation
- Surgery (in severe cases)

Consult an ENT specialist for:

- Proper diagnosis
- Personalized treatment plan
- Discussion of potential allergen avoidance or immunotherapy

Note: Cetirizine is an antihistamine, not a cure for sinusitis.

Question 2

I'm a 26-year-old guy dealing with a high pitch voice that lacks resonance. People often mistake me for a woman over the phone, and it's frustrating. I haven't seen a doctor about this yet, and I'm also dealing with essential tremor. Are there any exercises or treatments that could help with these issues?

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you may be experiencing voice modulation issues. You can try using voice therapy techniques to improve your voice quality. Additionally, you can use medications like Botox injections to help with essential tremors. For voice modulation, you can try speech therapy exercises and vocal warm-ups. For essential tremors, you can consider taking Propranolol. Remember to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication.
