I had ear drum hole surgery about 4 years ago but for the last two years, I've been dealing with constant itching inside my ear. Could this be related to the surgery or something else? It's really bothering me and I'm not sure what to do about it

Itching in the ear after eardrum surgery, especially if it persists for two years, could be due to several factors, including a recurring infection, skin irritation, or even nerve sensitivity. It's important to consult with an ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) specialist to determine the cause and appropriate treatment, as it's not normal for itching to persist this long after surgery.

One side of my tonsil has an open pocket where food keeps getting stuck and forms yellowish tonsil stones. I have to remove them manually but there's no swelling. I don't want surgery are there any ayurvedic treatments to help close this pocket?

While Ayurvedic practices can help manage tonsil stones and associated symptoms, they generally don't address the underlying structure of the tonsils, including the "pocket" you describe. Addressing a specific structural issue like a tonsil pocket might require more specialized medical interventions, and Ayurveda is not a substitute for conventional medical care in such cases.

I'm experiencing this weird sensation starting from my chest up to my throat, almost like a gargling feeling. There's a lot of post nasal drip and now my whole throat is super irritated. It's giving me this intense nausea that makes me gag a lot, sometimes over 20 times. It happens every few months and it's so bad that I can't keep anything down. As soon as something hits my throat, it just comes back up. Any advice on how to deal with this?

The combination of post-nasal drip, gagging, and nausea sounds incredibly uncomfortable, but with the right management, you can start to see relief. Its crucial to figure out the underlying cause (allergies, GERD, sinusitis, etc.) so you can target the treatment appropriately. If this is a recurring problem, seeing an ENT specialist or a gastroenterologist might help pinpoint the exact cause and provide a more tailored treatment plan.

I've been dealing with tonsillitis and I've got these white patches in my throat. I've tried taking Novamax 500 for a couple of nights, but it doesn't seem to be helping much. Should I stop using it and try something else like Azithromycin Azithral 500 for the next three days? Or would Augmentin 625 Duo be a better option? I'm trying to figure out which one would work best for treating tonsillitis.

Fertisure M is a supplement designed to support male fertility, particularly sperm motility. However, individual results may vary, and the effectiveness of Fertisure M depends on several factors, including: 1. *Underlying causes of low motility*: If the low motility is due to an underlying medical condition, Fertisure M may not be enough to completely resolve the issue. 2. *Dosage and compliance*: Ensure your husband takes the supplement as directed by the doctor. 3. *Combination with other treatments*: Fertisure M might be prescribed in conjunction with other treatments or lifestyle changes. Typically, supplements like Fertisure M may take around 3-6 months to show noticeable improvements in sperm motility. However, this timeframe can vary significantly from person to person. *Monitoring progress*: Regular semen analysis tests (every 2-3 months) can help track changes in sperm motility. This will enable your husband's doctor to assess the effectiveness of Fertisure M and make any necessary adjustments to the treatment plan.
