I'm having this issue where water sometimes comes out of my left ear. It's been happening on and off for about two years now. I can't figure out why. The water has a really bad smell, and it's pretty gross. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?

I'm really concerned about my ear. I had a tympanoplasty about a month ago, and now I'm noticing pus coming from the area. Could this mean that the surgery didn't work, or maybe there's a rupture? I followed all the post-op care instructions my doctor gave me. Can you help me understand what's happening and how I can get better?

That could have got reinfected,you have to use one more course of antibiotics, visit ENT doctor for evaluation and appropriate management

I've been dealing with a sore throat for three months, and it's really starting to get to me. I've tried a bunch of antibiotics and syrups, but nothing seems to work. I'm worried it might be something more serious since its not going away. Could you suggest what else I should try or what might be going on? I'm really looking for some advice here.

I keep getting these small whitish yellow stones on my tonsils is there any way to stop them without surgery or is surgery the only option

Yes, it's possible to reduce or prevent tonsil stones without surgery. Improving oral hygiene, including brushing, flossing, and using an antibacterial mouthwash, can significantly minimize their formation. Additional methods like gargling with warm saltwater or using a water pick can help dislodge existing stones
