I'm dealing with a deviated nasal septum, and it's been bothering me a lot. I really want to go for septoplasty surgery, but I'm super anxious about the idea of using packing because I just can't breathe through my mouth. I'm based in Delhi. Is there any surgeon here who could help with a packing-free procedure? I'm really looking for advice or suggestions on how to proceed.

I've been having this recurring issue with my left ear. About a month ago, I saw an ENT and had some wax removed. They also put me on meds like Protal SR 40 mg, Nukast 10 mg, and a nasal spray called Floresp for a month because they said there was a bit of a tilt in my nose bone and some tonsil signs in my throat. The strange thing is, during that month, my usual migraines completely stopped. But now that I'm off the meds, my ear feels heavy again, my nose is a bit irritated, and I've had a headache for three days straight. Do you think there's a connection between my ear and my headaches, or could it be something else? How do I get back to feeling normal?
