View allI've been dealing with blocked ears and sharp shooting pain for about a month now. There have been times I hear sounds in my ear too. Steaming has helped open up my left ear, but my right ear still feels blocked and painful sometimes. I tried using soliwax, but it just made my ears ring. My hearing seems fine, though. Any suggestions on what I should do next? I'm really looking for some guidance.

I'm really worried because my husband has had a swollen tonsil on one side for almost a year now. He's been experiencing pain on that side in both his throat and ear. We've checked Google, and it mentioned that asymmetrical tonsils could mean tonsil cancer, which is terrifying. We've seen lots of ENT specialists and had tests like Neck USG, CTPNS, and Laryngoscopy done, all of which came back normal. But none of these doctors have mentioned anything about the asymmetrical tonsil. Could this still possibly be tonsil cancer, or is there something else that might be causing these symptoms?
Asymmetrical tonsils can be due to various reasons other than cancer, such as chronic tonsillitis or tonsil stones. In your husband's case, since the tests have been normal and there are no other concerning symptoms, it's less likely to be related to cancer. To help reduce the swelling and pain in the tonsil, your husband can try using over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Gargling with warm salt water can also help alleviate discomfort. Additionally, throat lozenges and staying hydrated can provide relief. If the symptoms persist or worsen, your husband can try using a throat spray containing benzocaine or visiting a doctor for further evaluation.

To address persistent morning nasal discharge despite regular medication and a septoplasty, a comprehensive approach including identifying the cause and implementing specific treatment strategies is recommended. This could involve further testing for allergies or infections, exploring the possibility of nasal polyps or other structural issues, and potentially adjusting your medication or trying alternative therapies like nasal irrigation or steroid sprays
