Question

I'm 26 and I have this recurring issue where my nose gets blocked whenever there's pollution or if I catch a cold. It's like when one nostril is blocked, the other one decides to join in. I've been relying on Otrinoz nasal drops constantly, and I'm really looking for a more permanent solution. Could you suggest anything that would help me solve this problem for good?

Question

I'm really struggling with my nasal spray habit. I've been using Otrivin for around 45 years now and every time I try to stop, my nose just gets so stuffy that I end up using it again. It's affecting my life a lot, and I can't seem to shake it off. Plus, there's this post-nasal drip that bothers me. What can I do to finally break free from this cycle? Any advice would be really appreciated.

Question

I'm really worried because I got a cotton wool bud stuck in my ear. The doctor couldnt get it out since its so close to my eardrum, and now Im just waiting for the hospital to contact me for an appointment. But now I've come down with a sore throat and a headache. Could these symptoms be because my ear is blocked?

Question

I'm a bit worried because it always feels like there's a lump or something stuck in my throat. Eating is fine, and I don't have trouble swallowing food, but when I just swallow my saliva, it feels like there's something tight in there. Can you help me understand what's going on?
