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?

I'm trying to get some information about what my options are for dealing with a deviated nasal septum. Could you explain what the surgery involves, any potential complications, and how long the recovery typically takes? I'm a bit concerned and would really appreciate some clarity on this.

The latest procedure is an Endoscopic Nasal Surgery which can be done as a daycare procedure. Advantages include breathing nasally immediately after surgery( no packsbandages to nose), no enlargement of structure of nose externally, no complications like septal synaechaeseptal perforationseptal saddlingseptal abscess! Costs a bit more than conventional septoplasty surgery but for all these advantages... Well worth the premium costing!

I got hit pretty hard right across my head and jaw area by my partner on Friday night, and ever since, the spot has been really red, throbbing, and warm. The next day, I felt like I had cotton stuck in my ear. I tried blowing out air while holding my nose, but nothing seems to happen; no air coming out or any whistling noise from my ear. There's been no discharge, but the pain has been constant for two days now. Could this affect my hearing? I'm really worried about what could be causing all of this.

Yes there could be mini malltrauma to any part of the middle ear,better get evaluated with ENT doctor and audiometry test done as soon as possible.

I've been taking HIFENACP twice daily for 3 days, along with Levocetirizine and Azithromycin once daily because I had a fever of 102 and body ache. I'm almost done with the medication, but my throat infection is still really bad. Should I continue the medication or switch to something else? If yes, what would you recommend?

yes continue the treatment
