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 hurt myself while jumping in a play arena, trying to do flips. I ended up landing awkwardly, and my knees were really close to my nose, which I think led to some impact. I started bleeding from my nose right after. A few people around helped me out, and the swelling from the impact disappeared after a bit. But now, my nose hurts whenever I touch it, and it feels like the cartilage separating my nostrils is a bit shifted to the right. Should I be worried about this?
There could be nose bridge fracture,visit ENT doctor and get an xray done and appropriate management
