How successful is DNS nose surgery and what are the risks? Can a deviated nasal septum be fixed without surgery or is surgery the only option? I'm worried about complications and wondering if there are non-surgical treatments that actually work

I've been yelling at my sister earlier for about 5 minutes, and now my voice feels really tired and my throat, or maybe my vocal cords, are kind of sore. Any ideas on how I can fix this?

No need to worry take warm water and rest your voice for some time u will feel better.

I've got a pleomorphic adenoma on my left parotid gland again since 2010. I recently went through Sonography, FNAC, and a CT Scan, and they all say it's still there. Everything else around it seems normal, thankfully. My doctors are advising me to go for a Parotidectomy. I'm feeling a bit unsure and worried about this. Could anyone offer some guidance on what I should consider before making a decision?

The most common treatment for a parotid gland adenoma is surgery to remove the tumor, a procedure called a parotidectomy
