I'm really having a tough time with my headphones. I can't manage to keep them on for more than 5 minutes because they cause discomfort and sometimes even a slight pain in my ears and throat. It's okay when I'm not using them, but I can't figure out if I will ever be able to use headphones again without this issue. I've noticed dryness in my ears, so I tried using a few drops of coconut oil which helps temporarily, but then after 30 minutes of headphone use, my ears are dry again and the discomfort returns. Could it be the headphones causing the dryness, or is there something else going on? I'm really looking for a permanent solution to this ear and throat discomfort from using headphones. Any suggestions?

View allI was diagnosed with a left antrochoanal nasal polyp back in 2018 and my ENT has tried everything but says surgery is the only option now. I keep getting infections with bloody discharge from my left nose and can only breathe through my right nose and mouth. I'm really scared of surgery and even needles I can't even handle blood tests easily. I've heard about Dupixent (dupilumab) injections for treating polyps but can't find an ENT in India who can help me with this. Money isn't an issue, I just want to avoid surgery. Does Dupixent work for antrochoanal polyps and is it available in India or do I need to go abroad for it
Dupixent (dupilumab) injections are a potential treatment option for nasal polyps, including antrochoanal polyps, and are available in India. While your ENT may have explored other treatments, Dupixent is a viable alternative for managing symptoms and potentially avoiding surgery, especially if you are hesitant about the procedure and its potential complications. You should consult with an ENT specialist in India who is familiar with Dupixent and can assess your specific case to determine if it's the right course of action.

I've recently had earwax removed, but since then, I've been feeling a lot of pressure and fullness, especially in my right ear. It feels like I need to put my finger in there and stretch it to get some relief. It's like there's an itch or a constant urge to wiggle the inside of my ear as if it's swollen. My hearing has definitely improved after the wax removal, but this pressure is bothering me, mostly in the right ear and occasionally in the left. I've been using Ciplox ear drops for about a week now. Is this normal? Should I be taking any precautions or consider any other treatment? I'm getting a bit worried about it. Would appreciate your advice.
this needs evaluation ,visit ENT doctor for the same

I was cleaning my ear with a QTip and think I went too far because it started bleeding. It hurts now, but I can still hear okay. Should I be worried, and what should I do about it?
visit your ENT doctor for evaluation and appropriate treatment.
