I'm having this watery discharge coming from my ear for the past day. It all began with really bad pain and a lot of pressure, but then after a while, the pain slightly eased up, and that's when the drainage started. Should I be worried about this?

My 4.5-year-old son has trouble breathing and always breathes through his mouth due to enlarged adenoids. The ENT recommended surgery. I want to understand the difference between normal surgery and coblation technique are there any side effects with coblation? Which one should we go for?

In an adenoidectomy, the main difference between the traditional method (curettage) and coblation technique lies in how the adenoid tissue is removed and the potential for residual tissue. Coblation, while sometimes considered more precise, can still have some side effects like bleeding and infection, and there's a small chance of adenoid regrowth. Ultimately, the best choice for your child depends on your ENT's expertise, your child's specific situation, and your comfort level with the risks and benefits of each technique.

I've been dealing with a lot of excessive salivation lately and it's really hard for me to swallow. I'm worried and wondering what could be causing this and what I can do to help it. Any advice would be appreciated.

Excessive salivation (hypersalivation) and difficulty swallowing (dysphagia) can be caused by various factors, including anxiety, stress, oral infections, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), neurological disorders, or medication side effects; remedies include practicing relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing or meditation, chewing sugar-free gum to stimulate saliva swallowing, avoiding acidic or spicy foods, elevating the head of your bed, and consulting a doctor or dentist to rule out underlying conditions that may require medical attention.
