I'm really worried about my dad, who's 63. He's having this problem where there's a strong smell, like mucous, when he breathes out, both from his mouth and nose. He's never been into drinking alcohol or smoking, so I'm not sure what's going on. Could you help me understand what's causing this and maybe recommend a good mouthwash or something that might help with his breathing?

So, I had a tympanoplasty type 1 ear surgery back on May 10, 2018, and my doctor removed some gel forms on June 5, but mentioned there's still a bit left on my eardrum. They can't clear it yet 'cause the doc's on leave, and advised me to use otocin o ear drops, four drops daily, until then. My worry is, when I put the ear drops in before bed, they don't seem to drain properly. Even after sleeping for 7 to 8 hours, the drops just come out when I wake up. Is it okay for the medicine to stay in my ear for that long, or should I be worried about how they're not draining? How long are ear drops typically supposed to stay in the ear anyway?

I had a road accident and ended up with a longitudinal temporal bone fracture and LMN facial palsy. I've attached my CT scan do you think conservative treatment would work or would I need surgery?

A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.

I've been experiencing this constant pain between my eyebrows and the upper part of my nose for over a year now. It's there all the time and feels really heavy. Even taking paracetamol doesn't seem to help. What could be causing this, and is there anything I can do about it?

The persistent pain between your eyebrows and upper nose, lasting over a year, could be related to various conditions, such as sinusitis, tension headaches, migraines, or trigeminal neuralgia; since paracetamol hasn't provided relief, consult a ENT specialist
