I'm really worried about my recent medical reports that mention something called pleomorphic adenoma. I'm unsure which kind of doctor I should see about this. Do you think surgery is necessary, and which specialist is best for handling this situation?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
For plemorphic adenoma, you should consult an Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) specialist or an Otolaryngologist. Surgery is often recommended for plemorphic adenoma to remove the tumor and prevent any complications. The specialist will assess your specific case and recommend the appropriate treatment plan, which may include surgery to remove the tumor.

View allI've been dealing with this tinnitus for about 9-10 months now. The first doctor I saw said my left ear looked a bit dull and gave me a decongestant, but that didn't really help. Then another ENT mentioned something about my ear being retracted or RTM. Since then, I've seen multiple doctors and have been on multivitamins and ginkgo. I've got a few questions though. Can RTM stick around for nearly a year, and if it does, could this be the reason for ear pain when I gently use earbuds? Also, when I do the Valsalva maneuver in the morning, I sometimes feel something watery in my ear. This only happens the first time when I wake up. Besides taking all these meds, are there other ways to deal with it? It's hard to sleep with this constant noise, kinda like the sound an old TV makes, and it's there all the time, fluctuating like a stream. Is using warm oil in my ear a good idea? Could an infection be causing all this? I'm really stressed out by all this.

I've been having this pain near my left ear, like right between my jaw and tragus. It happened a few months ago too but went away eventually. Now it's back, and it gets worse when I bite down on something. Could you help me figure out what might be causing this and how to fix it?

I've been feeling this film of mucus on the right side of my throat, almost down to my chest, for the past few weeks. I remember having the same feeling last year. My right nostril is blocked, and there's pressure on my right ear. I used to smoke a lotabout six cigarettes a day for seven yearsbut quit last year. Since then, there's no cough, but the mucus feeling is still there. Could it be cancer? Sometimes, it seems like this sticky feeling on the right side even goes down to my stomach. I'm not experiencing heartburn though. I'm curious, what's the risk of throat cancer at 27 in India? Also, I used to smoke marijuana but stopped that last year too. What do you think?
