I have a sinus issue and a deviated nasal bone that makes my blocked nose worse. I don't want surgery but rely on OTRIVIN drops for temporary relief. Are there other ways to manage this? It's really hard to deal with daily.

Yes, there are alternative ways to manage a deviated septum and sinus issues without surgery, such as using saline nasal sprays, avoiding triggers, and incorporating home remedies like steam inhalation and humidifiers. It's also crucial to consult with a doctor or ENT specialist to determine the best course of action for your specific situation and to discuss potential medical treatments like nasal steroid sprays

View allIt's been about three weeks since I got over Covid, but I'm having this issue where one side of my nose keeps getting partially blocked off and on throughout the day. The side it happens on changes randomly. Plus, there's this slight feeling of mucus in my throat every now and then. Is this something I should be worried about, or is it pretty normal post-recovery?
It's not uncommon to experience lingering symptoms like nasal congestion and throat mucus after recovering from COVID. These can be part of post-viral recovery, but if they persist or worsen, its a good idea to consult a doctor to rule out any other issues.

I'm a bit worried because I've had a bad cold for several days, but now my sore throat has gotten really bothersome. It started out like a regular sore throat, but then two days ago I woke up and spat out mucus that had half mucus and half blood in it, which freaked me out a bit. I remember having a tough crusted pizza before it started, thinking maybe that had something to do with it. Now today, I've been spitting up a lot of mucus and noticed tiny amounts of blood too. Should I be concerned about this?

I've been experiencing some pain when I chew or eat, and it's been going on for about 56 days now in my right ear. At first, I thought it might have something to do with my teeth, but I can clearly feel it's an ear pain. Can you help me figure out what's causing this or what I should do about it?
