I'm feeling like there's something oily in my throat when I swallow, and it keeps coming back up but never fully comes out. I've tried gargling with hot water, but it's really uncomfortable. A few days ago, I had a cold and now I'm suffering from a cough and sore throat. I'm taking Grilinctus for the cough. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

View allI have hearing loss and my doctor recommended ear surgery because there's some damage to the layers in my ear and a small hole. Is there any alternative to surgery? Can homeopathy help repair this or should I see a good homeopathic doctor? Here are my test results what do you suggest?
The recommended ear surgery likely refers to tympanoplasty, a procedure to repair a damaged eardrum (tympanic membrane). This surgery can improve hearing, especially if a hole in the eardrum (perforation) or damage to the surrounding layers is causing hearing loss. Tympanoplasty involves using a graft (tissue or synthetic material) to patch or reconstruct the damaged eardrum.

I'm experiencing a sore throat, and sometimes I'm noticing mucus with a bit of blood coming from my mouth. Could you help me understand what's going on and what remedies I might try? I'm a bit concerned about it.
Blood in sputum during a sore throat can be due to ruptured blood vessels because of inflammation and congestion in the throat. It is harmless in minor quantities. If symptoms such as high fever or chills begin to develop with associated breathing difficultes, a more detailed examination may be warranted through an in person physician consult.
