I'm having this issue with one side of my nose being blocked all the time, and it switches sides during the day. At night it gets hard to breathe, even through the side that's open. My ears feel blocked too, and my head is constantly heavy, but I'm not dealing with a cold. This has been going on for about four months, and I've already seen my family doctor and tried cetrizine and paracetamol, but nothing's helping. Who should I see about this? Also, is it okay if I use Otrivin daily for my nose problem?

Your persistent, alternating nasal congestion, ear blockage, and head heaviness, without cold symptoms, may indicate a possible underlying condition, such as a deviated septum, nasal polyps, or allergies; consider consulting an Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT)

View allI've been experiencing this weird clicking sound in my nose when I'm lying down and resting. It sounds like a computer mouse click, and it's been going on for about six months now. It hasn't caused any problems, but I'm really curious about what it might be. Can you shed some light on this?
That could be nasal drip,it's natural no need to worry.

I've had this white spot on my tonsil for a few days now, and whenever I touch it with a swab, it feels like a piece of rice comes out. It's happened a few times in the same spot, and even though I'm gargling with hot water and taking medicine, its not going away. I can feel something at the back of my mouth, but there isn't much pain. I've had tonsillitis since I was a kid, but this feels different. Plus, there's some pain in my ear. Could this be some kind of infection?
yes this could be recurrent tonsillitis if it is so better get it removed.visit ENT doctor for evaluation and appropriate management.

I'm a 34-year-old guy who's been dealing with off-and-on nasal congestion for as long as I can remember. I just had an x-ray of my nose and the PNS result showed some haziness in the right maxillary sinus. My ENT doctor has put me on a course of amoxclav for five days, plus I'm using a fluticasone nasal spray and taking telecast L tablets. I'm really curious about what's causing this haziness. Is it something that happens often, or is there any reason I should be worried? Would appreciate some insight.
Thats common. Its sinusitis. Infection. Continue the medicines. Take steam inhalation 3-4 times a day Avoild refrigerated citruis fruits
