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'm feeling this weird vacuum sensation in my left ear, and it's like my hearing's kinda off on that side. I tried using an earbud to see if there's anything blocking it, but there was nothing. I even put some warm oil in there, hoping it would help, but it's still not getting better. What could be going on?

I'm a heavy snorer at 46 years old, 5'10 and 89 kgs. I've been using a CPAP machine but find it uncomfortable. Different ENTs have given me mixed advice some recommend surgery while others say I should lose weight. Is there a permanent solution for snoring that actually works?
Snoring with CPAP intolerance can be treated with UPPP or weight loss—ENT evaluation with sleep study is key.
