I'm a bit worried because I've noticed a pea-sized hard lump just behind my right ear. It really hurts when I touch it, and I'm feeling some slight pain in my neck too. What could this be? Should I be concerned about it?

View allI'm feeling really dizzy and it's been going on for about 5 weeks now. Can you tell me why this might be happening? Is dizziness like this common, and how long does it usually last for people with vertigo? I'm currently taking flunarizine and betahistine as prescribed by an ENT specialist. Do these medications seem right for my issue?
continue the same medication if symptoms persist consult ENT

Can Ayurveda really cure sinus issues permanently or is surgery the only option left if treatments don't work? I've been struggling with recurring sinus problems and want to explore natural remedies before considering surgery. What are the best Ayurvedic treatments for chronic sinusitis?
Yes, sinusitis, or sinus infections, can often be treated and cured without surgery. Many cases resolve with home remedies, over-the-counter medications, and sometimes antibiotics if the infection is bacterial. Surgery is typically reserved for chronic or severe cases where non-surgical treatments have been ineffective

My vertigo issue hasn't gotten any better, and I'm not seeing any improvement. You mentioned I should avoid exercises, so I've been steering clear of them. What could be causing this, and is there anything else I should be doing to help with it? I'm feeling a bit stuck and would love some guidance on next steps.
Vertigo can be a challenging condition to manage. Since you are not seeing any improvement and avoiding exercises as advised, I recommend trying medication to help alleviate your symptoms. You can try taking Betahistine (brand name Serc) at a dosage of 16 mg three times a day. This medication can help reduce the frequency and severity of vertigo episodes. Remember to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication.
