I'm experiencing this weird heaviness on the left front side of my face, and sometimes I get pain in my left eye too. It feels worse in the morning. I already got my eyes checked, and they said everything's fine. Could this be something other than an eye issue, like maybe my sinuses or something else? It's just really uncomfortable, and Im worried about what it could be. Could you give me some advice on what might be causing this?

You may be experiencing symptoms of a tension headache or migraine. I recommend taking acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg for relief of head heaviness and pain in the left eye. You can take it every 4-6 hours as needed, but do not exceed 3,000-4,000mg in a day. Additionally, you can try using ibuprofen (Advil) 400mg for further pain relief. Make sure to stay hydrated, get enough rest, and manage stress to help prevent these symptoms from occurring.

My nose has been crooked since birth it tilts to the left and doesn't look great, though it doesn't cause any breathing issues. I'd like to fix it but want to avoid surgery if possible. Are there any non-surgical treatments that could help straighten it?

septoplasty is advised.

I've been feeling a strange moving sensation in my left ear for almost two weeks now, like an insect or something. There's no pain when it happens, but I saw an ENT doctor a few days ago. She checked my ear and said there's no insect, and my eardrums are fine. She diagnosed me with a dislocated jaw and gave me some Vitamin B Complex and pain meds. She mentioned something about the jaw joint needing repair. This all started after I cleaned my ears with cotton buds. Now, my left jaw feels weird, like a toothache, and I also have a small sore near my last teeth. Could this insect-like feeling in my ear be related to the jaw pain? And how do I get rid of this strange crawling sensation?

The ENT doctor you visited seems to have clinched the diagnosis. I suggest you to follow up with same doctor.

I'm really interested in getting a nose piercing but I'm not too keen on the gunshot method. I've heard that needle piercing might be an option and I'm wondering if ENT doctors usually handle this. Do they use local anesthesia for it? Also, could you recommend any doctors who might be able to help with this?
