Question

I'm 17 and recently had a check-up where the doctor diagnosed me with acute otitis media in my right ear, possibly due to my cold. I've been taking antibiotics like Natravox, using a nasal spray, and a tablet called Nasathera for the cold. The pain in my ear has gone away after taking painkillers, and my cold has cleared up too. But I'm still not hearing fully from my right earthere's this ringing sound. I dance as a hobby, and with a dance concert coming up soon, I'm wondering if it's safe to continue practicing or do any strenuous activities with this ear infection. Could this affect my recovery or hearing any further?

Question

I'm 33 weeks pregnant and dealing with a throat infection. I've been advised to take Taxim 200, but I've always associated it with being prescribed for diarrhea, while Amoxicillin was what I used for throat infections. I'm wondering if Taxim is really suitable for treating throat infections as well. Any insights?

Question

I'm a singer, and I've been having this issue with my left ear. Whenever I hit high notes, it feels clogged or like there's a bubble in it. It's super frustrating because I'm a soprano, and I really need to be able to hit those high notes without any problems. Could it be something serious, or is there a way to fix it?

Question

I'm really worried about my sister. She's been experiencing this weird burnt plastic smell and taste whenever she eats anything. It's like everything just tastes and smells like plastic to her, and raw veggies seem to be the worst. This all started about two weeks ago, and she doesn't have a cold, cough, or fever or anything like that. Now she's also feeling some pain in her left lower jaw since yesterday. Do you have any idea what this might be? Who should we talk to about getting this checked out?
