I heard about a new treatment that can fix an eardrum hole without surgery or skin grafts. Is this available in India? How effective is it and where can I find doctors who offer this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Yes, the treatment you're inquiring about, typically referred to as "laser myringoplasty" or "laser myringotomy," is available in India. It's a minimally invasive procedure that uses a laser to repair minor eardrum perforations or meniscal tears without requiring skin grafts or traditional surgery.

View allI've been dealing with frequent sinusitis that worsens my asthma, and I'm wondering if surgery for a deviated septum could help. I'm tired of relying on meds like cetirizine and montelukast and have started jal neti and vaman for relief. Would surgery actually make a difference or are there other options I should consider?
Yes, surgery to correct a deviated septum (septoplasty) can potentially make a difference in managing your sinusitis and its impact on your asthma. It's a common procedure to improve airflow and reduce nasal congestion. However, it's crucial to consider other options and determine if surgery is the right fit for your individual situation.

When I use Duonase nasal spray, I notice it ends up in my throat after a while. Should I be swallowing it or is it better to spit it out?
If Duonase nasal spray drips into your throat after use, it is generally safe to swallow. However, if you find the taste unpleasant or if it's causing irritation, you can spit it out. Just ensure you follow the recommended dosage and consult your doctor if you have any concerns.
