Question 2

I've had these red and white bumps at the back of my throat where my tonsils were removed back in 2011. They showed up with a sore throat which is gone now, but the bumps haven't disappeared. Is there anything I can do to make them go away?

Accepted Answer

You seem to be suffering from granular pharyngitis which usually occurs secondary chronic irritation of the pharynx such as reflux laryngopharyngitis, post nasal discharge, recurrent pharyngitis etc. If you do not have any symptoms then you need not worry about it

Question 3

I'm a 24-year-old guy and I've always been really skinnylike, my whole life. I'm around 55 kg, and nothing I've tried in terms of medicines or treatments seems to help me gain weight. I've also got a couple of other issues. My left ear veins aren't working right, so I can't hear out of it, and I'm starting to go bald even though I'm pretty young. Plus, I have this bad habit of chewing tobacco, which I know can't be helping. I'm really eager to figure out how to get healthier and maybe even bulk up a bit. Do you have any advice or suggestions on what I could do?

Accepted Answer

Patient is advised tobacco cessation.

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?

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.
