I'm dealing with an annoying issue with my right ear since last night. I keep hearing this pulsing sound, like a heartbeat, and it's constant. Should I be worried about this being something serious?

I'm a bit worried because I had an upper GI endoscopy about four days ago, and the doctor mentioned that any pain should go away in a day. But I'm still feeling pain on the right side of my throat, especially when I swallow or even just gulp air. Is this something I should be concerned about, or is it pretty typical?

It's generally normal to experience some mild throat pain or irritation after an upper GI endoscopy, especially within the first few days. However, if the pain persists longer than expected or worsens, it's important to contact your doctor to rule out any complications and get proper guidance.

I have a hole in my eardrum and I'm really confused about which doctor to see for surgery. I've already consulted three doctors Adhana Clinic, GTB Hospital, and Dr. Gill in Agra and they all recommended surgery. How do I decide which doctor to go with for the procedure? I'm worried about making the right choice.

Do not worry, visit you ENT doctor for evaluation and appropriate treatment.
