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.

my doctor recommended septoplasty fess and turbinoplasty for a deviated nasal septum and bilateral ethmoid and maxillary sinusitis but I'm not sure if it's really necessary could I manage without surgery or are there other options
It's understandable to have concerns about surgery, especially when dealing with a deviated septum and sinusitis. While surgical correction (septoplasty, FESS, and turbinoplasty) can be effective for these conditions, it's not always the first or only option. You can explore alternative approaches, such as medication and lifestyle changes, to manage your symptoms before considering surgery

I often wake up feeling like there's something stuck in the back of my throat, kind of like phlegm, but it feels more like a rubbery slime or clay. It's really making me feel nauseous and I'm wondering if there's any medicine to help with it. I've had sinusitis before, which got better, but this still happens. When I eat, I sometimes can't swallow properly, and other times my throat gets super dry, and I think some cough might have gotten frozen in there due to fungus or something. What could this be, and is there a treatment for it?
