I'm dealing with this headache that feels more like intense pressure, especially at the back of my head behind the ears on both sides. Bending over makes it worse, spreading the pressure to my forehead. I had mucus thickening in my sphenoid, maxillary, and ethmoid sinuses about 34 months ago. I was previously recommended to use Azeflo nasal spray, which I haven't used in a while, but I tried it today and it didn't help. I don't have a runny nose or cold symptoms right now. Do you think this might be a sinus issue, and should I see an ENT specialist, or would it be better to consult a physician first?

I'm feeling worried because I've been experiencing dizziness when I walk after sitting in a chair for about half an hour. This has been going on for the past year, and I've already consulted a neurologist and even tried some medications, but they haven't really helped much. Some doctors suggested it might be related to an ear problem. Can you please give me some advice on where to seek treatment for this kind of issue? It's starting to make me anxious about going to the office. I'd really appreciate some guidance on this.

I've been dealing with this scratchiness in my throat, almost like there's something stuck there, and it doesnt seem to go away. Hot water provides temporary relief, but the issue keeps coming back after a while. It's been ongoing for about three months, and I've tried medications like ZIFI AF, Citirizine, and Calpol for 10 days. There were moments when the meds helped, but the problem keeps resurfacing. What do you suggest I do next?
