I'm dealing with this constant itch and pain inside my ear, plus there's this ringing noise that just won't go away. It's been happening for about 23 days now. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?

Throat pain can be quite uncomfortable.
Before providing a prescription, consider:
- Staying hydrated with warm fluids like tea or broth
- Gargling with salt water
- Using a humidifier
- Avoiding spicy or acidic foods
For relief, you can try:
- Pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen
- Throat lozenges or sprays containing phenol or menthol
However, for a personalized prescription and proper diagnosis, I strongly recommend consulting a doctor.

View allMy husband's 28 and he's been dealing with a sore throat and pain for a few days now, but he's not running a fever. Yesterday morning there was blood in his sputum, and it happened again today. Could you please give us some advice on what this might be about? We're a bit concerned.
Severe pharyngitis (inflammation of the pharynx) causes severe irritation in the throat, which results in violent bouts of cough. This cough can sometimes cause rupture of some small blood vessels, which results in small amounts of blood being expectorated with sputum. It is no cause for concern, but if the bleeding persists and increases in quantity, a physician consult is necessary.

I have a DNS issue with an overgrown septum and outer bone. My doctor recommended septoplasty first and then plastic surgery on the outer nose later, but I've heard about septorhinoplasty where both are done together. Is that really an option? Would it be better to combine them or do them separately?
Your doctor's recommendation to address the deviated nasal septum (DNS) with septoplasty first, followed by rhinoplasty (plastic surgery of the outer nose), is a common approach.

I'm feeling this heaviness or pressure on the right side of my throat, like there's some pain there. There's no fever, cough, or anything like that. When I press on it, I feel something like a bean moving upward when I swallow. I only notice it when I swallow something. Could it be a gland or a tumor? If it were throat cancer, wouldn't I have a cough, fever, or other symptoms? I'm really scared. Can you tell me what the exact symptoms of throat cancer are?
