I'm 17 and recently had a check-up where the doctor diagnosed me with acute otitis media in my right ear, possibly due to my cold. I've been taking antibiotics like Natravox, using a nasal spray, and a tablet called Nasathera for the cold. The pain in my ear has gone away after taking painkillers, and my cold has cleared up too. But I'm still not hearing fully from my right earthere's this ringing sound. I dance as a hobby, and with a dance concert coming up soon, I'm wondering if it's safe to continue practicing or do any strenuous activities with this ear infection. Could this affect my recovery or hearing any further?

I'm having a tough time dealing with this really dry mouth and throat, but it only seems to happen at night. I'm actually feeling super tired but can't sleep because of my anxiety over it. Could having a dry mouth be something serious or dangerous? And who should I reach out to for help with this? It's already 5:30 in the morning and I haven't slept at all, plus my tongue looks all white.

I'm feeling worried because I've been experiencing dizziness when I walk after sitting in a chair for about half an hour. This has been going on for the past year, and I've already consulted a neurologist and even tried some medications, but they haven't really helped much. Some doctors suggested it might be related to an ear problem. Can you please give me some advice on where to seek treatment for this kind of issue? It's starting to make me anxious about going to the office. I'd really appreciate some guidance on this.

I'm really concerned because I've been dealing with a sore throat that just won't go away. It's been hard to swallow and it feels like it's below the tonsils, around the throat wall under the palatopharyngeal arch. I can't usually see anything unless I look really closely. It's been a month now, and I'm getting pretty scared. What could this be?

Based on your description of a sore throat with mild swallowing difficulty located below the tonsils and below the palatopharyngeal arch, it may be due to a throat infection. I recommend taking an antibiotic like Amoxicillin (brand name: Amoxil) 500mg three times a day for 7-10 days to treat the infection. Additionally, you can use throat lozenges containing Benzocaine to help relieve the soreness. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation.
