I had sinus surgery with myringotomy, grommets, and balloon dilation for my eustachian tubes two weeks ago but my ears still feel clogged why is this happening and how long until I get better
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It's common to experience ear pressure or a feeling of fullness after sinus surgery, even after procedures like myringotomy, grommets, and balloon dilation of the eustachian tubes. This is often due to swelling and inflammation in the nasal passages and sinuses, which can affect the Eustachian tube's ability to equalize pressure. While this should improve over time, it can take a few weeks to a few months for the swelling to subside and for your ears to feel normal again

View allI've been told I need septoplasty and turbinoplasty surgery for my sinus issues but I'm not sure if it will give me permanent relief from sinus problems What are the actual benefits and risks of these surgeries Is there any way to treat sinus without going through surgery
Septoplasty/turbinoplasty help breathing if done well; risks are minimal—some cases improve with meds alone.

I've had Saunf stuck in my throat since this morning and it's constantly irritating me. I've already tried some home remedies like eating banana with honey and gargling with hot water, but it hasn't worked. What else can I do to get rid of it?
See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.

I'm noticing a hard bump on the side of my nose, just about an inch below my eye. I initially tried to squeeze it thinking it was a pimple, but nothing came out, and then it disappeared for about an hour before returning. Now it's hard and I'm wondering if it could be an allergic reaction to the nose pads on my glasses since I do have sensitive skin and a history of allergies. Could this really be just an allergy or should I be worried about something else?
As you said that could be Allergic reaction,do not attempt to squeeze it or scratch it, avoid triggering factors stay healthy.
