Question 1

I'm really concerned because I just saw an ENT doctor and she told me I have something called Melanoplakia Buccal Mucosa. What does it mean and how is it treated? Could you please give me some advice on what steps to take next?

Question 2

I've been having this issue where my left ear feels blocked every morning, and I can only hear faintly until it gradually clears up throughout the day. It's been happening for about 20-25 days now. Do you have any suggestions for wax removal drops that could help?

Accepted Answer

You can try using Debrox earwax removal drops. Use 5-10 drops in the affected ear, and keep your head tilted for 5 minutes to allow the drops to work. You can do this twice a day for up to 4 days to help soften and remove the earwax. If the symptoms persist, please consult an ENT specialist for further evaluation.

Question 3

I've been dealing with nasal congestion for more than 5 to 6 days now, and I've been using decongestants pretty frequently. I'm really worried because I've started having some breathing problems and mild asthma symptoms. Is it possible that the decongestants are making things worse, and what should I do about it?

Accepted Answer

don't take decongestants more then 10days ! avoid allergy areas

I noticed that the skin on my epiglottis is white when I looked in the mirror. Is it normal for the epiglottis to have white skin, or should I be worried about a potential disease?
