I'm really concerned because I used cotton buds to clean my ears, and now they feel blocked. I went to see a doctor, and instead of cleaning out the wax, they recommended a wax solvent. I've been using it for two days, but my ears still feel the same. Should I be worried about this, or is there something else I should be doing?

View allI'm struggling with nasal congestion and its making it kind of hard to breathe properly. Do you have any suggestions for home remedies that might help with this? Maybe something I can try out to ease the discomfort?
Your sneezing response to cold stimuli is known as "cold-induced sneezing" or "photic sneezing reflex." It's a relatively rare condition. To manage symptoms: - Avoid sudden exposure to cold temperatures - Wear protective gear (gloves, scarf) in cold weather - Use saline nasal sprays to moisturize nasal passages - Consider over-the-counter antihistamines or decongestants Consult a doctor or allergist for further guidance and diagnosis.

I'm experiencing dizziness whenever I walk on a polished surface and I've already seen a neurologist who prescribed Betavert 16mg for two weeks. Unfortunately, the symptoms haven't gone away. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

I've been having this issue where my left ear feels blocked every morning, and I can only hear faintly until it gradually clears up throughout the day. It's been happening for about 20-25 days now. Do you have any suggestions for wax removal drops that could help?
You can try using Debrox earwax removal drops. Use 5-10 drops in the affected ear, and keep your head tilted for 5 minutes to allow the drops to work. You can do this twice a day for up to 4 days to help soften and remove the earwax. If the symptoms persist, please consult an ENT specialist for further evaluation.
