I'm kind of worried because I had a cold and in a rush, I accidentally put Iodex in my nose. I quickly realized it was a mistake and washed it out with soap and water, but then my nose started bleeding a bit. Is this a serious issue, or should I be okay since the bleeding stopped quickly?

I've noticed this light yellow liquid leaking from my left nostril twice today when I bend my head, with about a 10-minute gap between each occurrence. It eventually stopped on its own, but I'm a bit concerned. Could you help me understand what's going on?

I'm a bit worried because I had my earwax removed by an ENT and they used a sharp tool. After that, they inserted this pipe-like instrument, and it made this really loud noise in my ear. It's been about 25 days now, and there's still some pain in my ear, but it's not super severe. I'm just concerned that maybe this pipe thing hurt my eardrum. So, if the pipe did hit my eardrum, would there have been immediate, intense pain? And what are the signs of having a hole in your eardrum?

That could be vacuum which you are saying about,do not worry it causes no damage,the pain that younare saying could be negligible forget about it,if it's becoming worse visit your doctor for evaluation.

I've been dealing with a sore throat off and on for about 1.5 to 2 months now. Sometimes, it lasts for about 4 to 5 days with cold and fever happening every couple of weeks. I'm trying to manage it by gargling hot water regularly and I've avoided cold drinks and ice creams during this time. Can you offer any advice or suggest what might be going on?

Your recurring sore throat, accompanied by cold and fever, could be due to a lingering viral or bacterial infection, allergies, or environmental factors, and despite your efforts to manage symptoms, consider consulting an ENT specialist for a thorough examination, and potentially, a throat swab or blood tests to determine the underlying cause and appropriate treatment, which may include antibiotics, antivirals, or anti-allergic medications.
