I'm experiencing this constant ringing in my left ear and everything sounds muffled compared to my right ear. The doctor mentioned that it might be due to wax buildup. I've tried using ocarb drops and now soliwax, but nothing seems to help. What drops would you recommend to clear the wax and help with the tinnitus? This is really affecting my wellbeing. What can I do?

I've been told I need to get a tonsillectomy and I'm kind of anxious about it. Are there any risks or side effects I should be worried about? Is it really safe to go through with the tonsillectomy?

No need to worry there are no major complications with the surgery you can trust your doctor and get the procedure done.

I'm a 34-year-old guy who's been dealing with off-and-on nasal congestion for as long as I can remember. I just had an x-ray of my nose and the PNS result showed some haziness in the right maxillary sinus. My ENT doctor has put me on a course of amoxclav for five days, plus I'm using a fluticasone nasal spray and taking telecast L tablets. I'm really curious about what's causing this haziness. Is it something that happens often, or is there any reason I should be worried? Would appreciate some insight.

Thats common. Its sinusitis. Infection. Continue the medicines. Take steam inhalation 3-4 times a day Avoild refrigerated citruis fruits
