I'm dealing with this sensation like there's something stuck in my throat, and I've been getting this weird fast heartbeat along with feeling dizzy at times. What could be going on with me? Should I be worried?

These symptoms could be due to acid reflux causing a sensation of something stuck in your throat, along with palpitations and dizziness. You can try taking Omeprazole (Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast for acid reflux. Additionally, you can take Meclizine (Antivert) 25mg as needed for dizziness. If symptoms persist, consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I've been dealing with this weird sensation in my ears, like there's an airlock or maybe mucus shifting around. It all started when I had a bad cough and cold. Those are gone now, but the ear sensation is still there. I've tried closing my mouth and ears and blowing through my ears to fix it. Any idea what's going on or what I should do next?

My ears feel really blocked up because of a cold, and it's really messing with my hearing. I'm already on some meds for the cold, but what can I do to fix the ear problem? It's kind of concerning.

To resolve your blocked ears due to cold and improve your hearing, you can try using over-the-counter nasal decongestants like Sudafed (pseudoephedrine) or Afrin (oxymetazoline) spray. These medications can help reduce the congestion in your Eustachian tubes and improve airflow, which may help relieve the blockage in your ears. You can also try using a warm compress on your ears to help alleviate the discomfort and promote drainage. Additionally, staying hydrated and getting plenty of rest can also help your body fight off the cold and reduce congestion.

I'm really concerned about my 5-year-old. He's been snoring a lot, and every time the weather changes even a little, he gets a cold, cough, and sometimes a fever. One doctor mentioned something about getting an X-ray to check for an adenoid issue, and now an ENT specialist is suggesting surgery. I'm worried about going through with surgery at such a young age. Do you think it's the right move? And if we do decide on surgery, which hospital would you recommend for something like this?
