I'm really concerned because I just saw an ENT doctor and she told me I have something called Melanoplakia Buccal Mucosa. What does it mean and how is it treated? Could you please give me some advice on what steps to take next?

Don't try to remove the cotton yourself, as it can push it further in. Instead, visit an ENT specialist near you. Here are some options in Palava City, Dombivili East:
- RTKL VERTIGO & ENT CLINIC
- Trisense Ent Care
- Dr. Pol ENT Hospital (Dr. Uday Pol & Dr. Poonam Kshirsagar)
- Dr. Rakhi Dhotre Ear Nose Throat and Cochlear Implant Clinic
You can also search for more options and book an appointment online . Remember to explain the situation to the doctor, and they'll safely remove the cotton.

I've been dealing with breathing issues because of a deviated nasal septum, and my last doctor recommended a minor surgery to fix it. Is this something your clinic offers? I'm a bit nervous about the procedure and wanted to check if it's an option here.
septoplasty is advised to the patiet at apollo hospital.

I have a deviated septum and my ENT doctor recommended surgery after seeing my CT scan but said it's optional and up to me to decide. My main issues are one nostril always being blocked, post nasal drip causing cough, and tinnitus. Right now I manage with cetirizine but I'm not sure if I should go for surgery. What factors should I consider when deciding? My CT scan shows the deviation but I'm worried about recovery and whether it'll actually help my symptoms long-term.
for P/E ENT specialist opinion is advised to the patient.
