My brother recently got a CT scan for his sinus problem and ear hole issue, and the doctor is recommending surgery. Is there any way to treat this without going under the knife? Also, any idea what the surgery might cost?
It's understandable to want to explore all treatment options before considering surgery. For sinus issues and ear hole problems, non-surgical approaches can be effective in some cases. The cost of surgery can vary significantly, but generally, expect sinus surgery to range from Rs. 45,000 to Rs. 70,000 in India. Ear hole problems like tympanic membrane perforations might require tympanoplasty surgery, which can range from Rs. 30,000 to over Rs. 1 lakh, depending on the procedure and hospital

I'm having some issues with my voice, both when I talk and sing. It feels like there's a weakness in my voice box, even when I'm not speaking. There's also pain when I do talk or sing. My voice tires easily, and it's losing its depth and clarity it sounds faint and a bit muffled. Plus, hitting high notes takes a lot more effort than it used to. These issues used to happen rarely over the last year, but in the past three months, they've become more consistent. I've tried taking Oratil and Azee tablets, but they haven't helped. Could you help me figure out what's going on with my voice?
