I've been dealing with a sore throat for three months, and it's really starting to get to me. I've tried a bunch of antibiotics and syrups, but nothing seems to work. I'm worried it might be something more serious since its not going away. Could you suggest what else I should try or what might be going on? I'm really looking for some advice here.

My doctor recommended sinus surgery costing around 30k but I'm wondering if laser treatment could be an option instead what's the average cost for that and would it work for my condition?

Laser sinus treatment, also known as Radiofrequency Turbinate Reduction (RTR) or Laser Turbinate Reduction, can be a viable alternative to sinus surgery for some individuals, and the average cost can range from Rs. 10,000 to Rs. 40,000. While laser treatment may be effective for certain conditions, it's essential to discuss your specific case with your doctor to determine if it's appropriate and if it will address your particular sinus issues
