I'm feeling really confused right now. I went to see an ear doctor, and they said my ear drum is swollen. On top of that, I'm also dealing with acid reflux. Can someone explain what's going on? I'm really worried and need some help.

View allMy 4.5-year-old son has trouble breathing and always breathes through his mouth due to enlarged adenoids. The ENT recommended surgery. I want to understand the difference between normal surgery and coblation technique are there any side effects with coblation? Which one should we go for?
In an adenoidectomy, the main difference between the traditional method (curettage) and coblation technique lies in how the adenoid tissue is removed and the potential for residual tissue. Coblation, while sometimes considered more precise, can still have some side effects like bleeding and infection, and there's a small chance of adenoid regrowth. Ultimately, the best choice for your child depends on your ENT's expertise, your child's specific situation, and your comfort level with the risks and benefits of each technique.

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've been having quite a bit of trouble breathing through my nose. Initially, I went to the doctor, and they recommended surgery for my rhinosinusitis and internal turbinates, so I went ahead with it. But now I'm experiencing even worse issues, like one of my nostrils is completely blockedyou know, I can't even fit a finger inside! I went back, and the doctor mentioned something about a deviated septum. I'm really worried and wondering what could be going on. Is another surgery my only option now, or could there be other treatments or therapies that might help?
if you are having this severe symptoms, proceed for surgery. it is safe and you can feel better
