I got my CT scan report showing a deviated septum but I don't have major breathing issues on the left side. Sometimes I get headaches on that side though. No frequent colds. Do I really need septoplasty surgery or can I manage without it?

A deviated septum doesn't always require surgery, even if you have one. If your deviated septum is mild and not causing significant issues, you may not need septoplasty. However, if you're experiencing headaches or other bothersome symptoms, you should discuss treatment options with your doctor.

View allI'm really struggling with having a very low voice and it's been challenging for me to speak loudly in public situations. When I try to raise my voice, I get tired really quickly, like in just a few minutes. It's been tough during meetings because my voice just doesn't carry well. Could you give me some guidance on how to improve my vocal strength or manage this issue better? I'm looking for any tips or advice you might have.

My CT scan shows soft tissues filling almost all of my left maxillary sinus and less than half of the right one. What should I do next is surgery absolutely necessary or are there other options? I'm a bit worried and not sure what this means for me.

I've noticed these yellowish bumps at the back of my throat, but weirdly, there's no pain. Also, my mouth is looking kinda white. There's no issue with swallowing or eating, but I'm really concerned about what's going on. Any insights on this would be great.
