I'm dealing with tinnitus in both ears and have tried various medicines, including Tinnicar capsules. Unfortunately, after taking Tinnicar, my condition seems to have worsened. Is it possible that the capsules are causing side effects? I also have tonsils; could they be contributing to my tinnitus?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Its possible that Tinnicar worsened your tinnitus, especially if one of its ingredients didnt agree with your body. Discontinuing the capsule and consulting your doctor would be a good next step. Tonsil issues can also contribute to ear-related symptoms, so an ENT specialist might be able to help you explore if your tonsils are playing a role.

View allI'm feeling really anxious about this odd thing in the back of my throat. I managed to get a picture of it but I'm not quite sure if I can share it here or not. It looks like a small off-white square way back there behind my tongue. The wider I open my mouth, the more visible it gets, and it seems to bob up and down. Should I be worried? Any idea what this could be?
Based on your description, it sounds like you may have a case of tonsilloliths, also known as tonsil stones. These are small, off-white deposits that can form in the crevices of your tonsils. They can sometimes cause discomfort or a sensation of something being stuck in your throat. To help alleviate the symptoms and prevent further tonsil stone formation, you can try gargling with warm salt water or using a water flosser to gently dislodge the stones. In some cases, if the tonsil stones are persistent or causing significant issues, a doctor may recommend removal of the tonsils. In the meantime, you can also try using a mouthwash containing chlorhexidine or hydrogen peroxide to help reduce bacteria in the mouth and prevent the formation of new tonsil stones.

I'm experiencing some pain on the left side of my neck just below the ear, and it's been happening for the past two weeks. Sometimes my throat hurts too, and it feels like there's something stuck in my left ear. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?

My right nose is blocked due to nasal congestion and allergies, and the doctor recommended surgery using advanced ENT with a navigator based on my CT scan and endoscopic report. They said skipping surgery could lead to chronic sinus issues. Are there any alternative treatments that could avoid surgery?
Advanced ENT-guided FESS is effective, but if unaffordable, try nasal steroids, sprays, and steam inhalation for relief.
