I have a deviated nasal septum and it's making it hard to breathe properly. I'm thinking about getting surgery but I'm not sure how much it would cost. Can you tell me what the minimum cost for DNS surgery usually is?

View allI've been having this sore throat type of pain whenever I swallow my saliva. It's weird though because I'm not coughing or anything. But tonight, I noticed there was a bit of blood in my phlegm, just once though, and now I'm kind of freaking out. I'm not showing any other signs of being sick, so I'm not sure what's going on. Any ideas on what this might be?

I'm having some issues with my voice, both when I talk and sing. It feels like there's a weakness in my voice box, even when I'm not speaking. There's also pain when I do talk or sing. My voice tires easily, and it's losing its depth and clarity it sounds faint and a bit muffled. Plus, hitting high notes takes a lot more effort than it used to. These issues used to happen rarely over the last year, but in the past three months, they've become more consistent. I've tried taking Oratil and Azee tablets, but they haven't helped. Could you help me figure out what's going on with my voice?

I've had my ears blocked for the past 4 days, and I think it might be due to a cold I had. Not completely sure, though. It sometimes feels like there's water or some fluid in there, and occasionally, when I sneeze, the blockage goes away for a few seconds, but then it comes back. There's a little pain too, which is why I've been taking oxalgin tablets and using drep ear drops. What could be causing this, and should I be doing something different?
It sounds like you may be experiencing Eustachian tube dysfunction due to your recent cold. To help relieve the blockage and pain in your ears, I recommend taking a decongestant like Sudafed (pseudoephedrine) to help reduce the swelling in the Eustachian tubes. You can also try using a nasal spray like Afrin (oxymetazoline) to further reduce congestion. Additionally, continue using the Otrivin ear drops for relief. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions for each medication. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it would be best to consult with an ENT specialist for further evaluation and management.
