I'm a bit worried because I had my earwax removed by an ENT and they used a sharp tool. After that, they inserted this pipe-like instrument, and it made this really loud noise in my ear. It's been about 25 days now, and there's still some pain in my ear, but it's not super severe. I'm just concerned that maybe this pipe thing hurt my eardrum. So, if the pipe did hit my eardrum, would there have been immediate, intense pain? And what are the signs of having a hole in your eardrum?

I've had a hoarse voice for the last 4 months and was diagnosed with vocal cord polyps. The allopathy doctor gave me meds for 10 days and said surgery might be needed if it doesn't improve. Are there any Ayurvedic treatments that could help avoid surgery? Can you suggest Ayurvedic medicines or kadhas that might work for this?

This condition may require clinical evaluation to determine the exact cause and treatment. Some cases can be managed conservatively, while others may need surgical intervention depending on size, symptoms, and severity. Regular follow-up is important to monitor progress.
