I'm really struggling with sinus issues and just wanted some advice. For the past couple of months, I've been having this pain on the left side of my forehead that goes down to my nose. There's also this yellowish, smelly discharge that keeps coming from the left side of my nose. I just had a CTPNS done and it showed moderate mucosal thickening in my left maxillary sinus, causing about 70 to 80% of air space to opacify, and it's reaching into the middle meatus through the maxillary ostium. There's also some moderate thickening in the bilateral ethmoid air cells and mild thickening in the bilateral frontal sphenoid sinuses. I've got bilateral concha bullosa with secondary mucosal thickening too. I've been on medication for the past 15 days things like Augmentin 625, Allegra M, Defza 6mg, Ezicas nasal spray, and Enzoflam. They help for a bit, but after 7 to 8 hours, the symptoms just come back. What do you suggest I do now?

Its essential to complete the prescribed medication course, as it can help reduce inflammation and infection and if youre not experiencing lasting relief after 2 weeks of consistent medication.If medications are not resolving the issue, consult an ENT specialist for further evaluation.

View allI've been having a really weird problem since I ate some tiny thin fish about three months ago. It feels like there's a bone or something sharp stuck behind my tonsil, and it's been bothering me every time I swallow. I went to see an ENT specialist, and they said there's nothing to worry about and that there's no fishbone there. But it seriously feels like something is poking me back there. It's driving me nuts. What could it be, and should I be worried about it since its been a long time now without improvement?

I've had chronic sinusitis and had DNS surgery twice, but I still get heavy pressure around my forehead and eyebrows, especially on the left side. Right now, I'm taking levocetrizine hydrochloride 5mg and ambroxol HCl 60mg, which helped a bit with the dullness. Can I increase the dose to twice a day? I'm worried about side effects because last time I tried that, it caused sinus congestion and discharge. What do you suggest?
for P/E ENT specialist dr opinion is advised to the patient.
