I'm feeling this weird vacuum sensation in my left ear, and it's like my hearing's kinda off on that side. I tried using an earbud to see if there's anything blocking it, but there was nothing. I even put some warm oil in there, hoping it would help, but it's still not getting better. What could be going on?

I recently got a CT scan of my PNS, and the report shows I have a deviated septum, concha bullosa, and inferior turbinate hypertrophy. Lately, Ive been feeling this weird swollen sensation next to my nose on both sides, but theres nothing visible when I check in the mirror. I'm curious if this might be causing some of the symptoms Ive been experiencing. Like, could this be related to the pain I feel in my forehead, or the discomfort in my upper jaw, the area above my ear, and the side of my head? Sometimes I even notice balance issues, neck pain, and just feeling really tired or sleepy for no reason. Its weird, but these things mainly happen when I'm in an air-conditioned space or when cold wind hits my face. Does any of this sound connected to my nasal issues?

All these symptoms and CT findings are clear that you have Sinusitis, visit ENT doctor for appropriate management.avoid AC and consume warm foods

How long does recovery usually take after concha bullosa surgery I'm considering it because of breathing issues headaches and trouble focusing while reading I heard it's a minor endoscopic procedure but I'm worried about taking time off work since I just started a new job Would I be okay to go back to work by Monday if I have the surgery on Saturday or is two days too soon for recovery

Recovery after concha bullosa surgery, especially a minor endoscopic procedure, usually takes a few days to a week, but full recovery might take longer. While some patients can return to work within a few days, others may experience mild discomfort for a few days after surgery. Two days after a Saturday surgery (by Monday) is likely too soon for most, and it's best to err on the side of caution and allow more time for recovery.
