Can I still hit the gym with a deviated septum or should I wait until after my laser surgery this year I'm worried it might make breathing harder during workouts
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It's generally recommended to wait until after your deviated septum surgery to resume strenuous exercise, like hitting the gym, to allow for proper healing and minimize the risk of complications like bleeding. The severity of the deviation and the type of surgery will influence the recovery timeline, but it's usually best to avoid vigorous activity for at least a few weeks

View allI was diagnosed with sulcus vocalis in my right vocal cord and my doctor recommended voice therapy for a month but also mentioned surgery as an option. Can voice therapy alone fix this permanently or is surgery really necessary? I'm worried about going under the knife if therapy could work just as well.
ent opinion is advised .

I've been experiencing this issue where my hearing keeps coming and going over the last couple of weeks. It's really odd because sometimes, especially when I'm eating, I feel like I can't hear anything at all, almost as if I'm completely deaf. Other times, things sound just fine. The problem seems to happen in intervals, and I'm honestly starting to get concerned about what's causing it. What could be going on with my ears?
You may be experiencing fluctuating hearing loss, which can have various causes. In your case, it could be related to a condition called Meniere's disease. To help manage the symptoms of Meniere's disease, you can take Betahistine (brand name Serc). Additionally, you may benefit from using a diuretic like Hydrochlorothiazide (brand name Microzide) to reduce fluid retention in the inner ear. It is important to consult with an ENT specialist for a proper evaluation and management plan.

I've been dealing with allergic sinus infection for the past 2-3 months and recently had a CT PNS scan. The ENT specialist recommended surgery to reduce swelling and clear the blockage, but I'm wondering if homeopathic treatment could permanently fix the sinus issue without needing surgery
If it is allergic nasal wash and steroid spray can take care of it. Get a allergy test done and treat the allergy by immunotherapy. Surgery is done if all measures to clear sinuses are exhausted and you have a blocked nose
