I'm having a really hard time hearing because my ear is blocked with wax. I've never really used cotton buds or pins to clean my ears since I was a kid, but now I feel like I might need to. I'm really worried about damaging my eardrums, though. Is there another way to get rid of the wax without using buds or pins? I'd really appreciate any advice on what I can do.

View allI've had a swollen uvula for almost a week now, and it's making me cough a lot because it keeps touching my tongue. Drinking hot tea helps a bit, but only for a short time. I'm in 10th standard, and this is making it really hard to read and study. What could be causing this, and what should I do to feel better?
A high lymphocyte count (lymphocytosis) can be a normal response to infection, inflammation, or stress. Given your: - Lymphocytes: 48% (slightly elevated) - Absolute Lymphocyte Count (ALC): 3312 (within normal range for many labs) It's likely not a cause for concern. However, consult your doctor to: 1. Review your medical history 2. Discuss potential underlying causes 3. Determine if further testing is needed

I've had swollen tonsils for the past three days, but no other symptoms or discomfort. My doctor gave me Ceftum 500, but it hasn't made a difference, so now I'm on a five-day course of Augmentin 625. Could the swelling be from a viral infection instead of a bacterial one? How long does it usually take for tonsillitis to clear up? By the way, I'm a 28-year-old male.
have patince and complete the course consult ent if still persists
