I had septoplasty about six months ago to correct my deviated septum, but ever since, I've been having trouble breathing and can't sleep at all during the night. My nose feels really dry, and it seems like the air isn't getting to my lungs properly. I went back to my doctor, and they said it might be an allergy, but I'm not really convinced. I've been reading about empty nose syndrome and wondering if that's what I might have. Is there any way to cure ENS or manage these symptoms better?

I've been diagnosed with vocal cord nodules through endoscopy, and my voice isn't sounding right. The doctor recommended surgery, but I'm really worried can this be treated without surgery? I work in sales, so my voice is important. If surgery is necessary, could you suggest a good ENT surgeon in Delhi? Also, will my voice recover fully after the surgery? I've attached a picture of my vocal cord nodules for reference.

Vocal cord nodules can often be managed without surgery through voice therapy and behavioral changes. If voice therapy isn't successful, surgery might be necessary, but most people with nodules can achieve good results with non-surgical methods. Many factors can influence recovery, including the severity of the nodules, individual healing rates, and adherence to post-operative care

I've noticed a lump in front of my left tragus, and it's painless even when I touch or press it. It also seems to be mobile. I'm not sure if I should be concerned or if there's any specific way I should manage it. Could it be something serious or is it likely harmless?

This lump could be a benign condition such as a sebaceous cyst or a lipoma. It is important to monitor the lump for any changes in size, shape, or symptoms. If the lump causes any discomfort or grows in size, it is recommended to consult a doctor for further evaluation. In case of infection or inflammation, antibiotics may be prescribed. If necessary, the lump can be surgically removed.
