I've been hearing this strange noise coming from the back of my head, just above my neck, mostly on the right side. It happens when I move my head upwards or try to lean back. Plus, I get this neck pain on the right side whenever I spend too much time looking down. I've had this long-standing sinusitis issue on the right side, and it's been a real troublemaker. My neck hurts, I get headaches on that side, and sometimes even throat issuesall these come and go at random. What could be going on with me?

This needs evaluation,visit ENT doctor for the same and appropriate management

My 13-year-old son is having ear pain, and he mentioned it hurts when he tilts his head down and up. I had to visit a chemist last night, and they gave him diclogem. I'm really concerned and unsure of what steps to take next. Could you please advise on what might be causing the pain and if this medication is appropriate for his age?

Throat pain while swallowing can be concerning. Homeopathic remedies that may help: - Belladonna (for sudden, severe pain) - Lachesis (for pain on swallowing, especially liquids) - Phytolacca (for painful swallowing, with swollen tonsils) - Merc Sol (for throat pain with excessive saliva) Consult a homeopathic doctor for personalized guidance and proper dosage. Remember, if symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical attention.

I'm really having a tough time with my headphones. I can't manage to keep them on for more than 5 minutes because they cause discomfort and sometimes even a slight pain in my ears and throat. It's okay when I'm not using them, but I can't figure out if I will ever be able to use headphones again without this issue. I've noticed dryness in my ears, so I tried using a few drops of coconut oil which helps temporarily, but then after 30 minutes of headphone use, my ears are dry again and the discomfort returns. Could it be the headphones causing the dryness, or is there something else going on? I'm really looking for a permanent solution to this ear and throat discomfort from using headphones. Any suggestions?

Normal, nothing to worry ok.
