I'm really worried about these bumps under my tonsils in the tonsillar fossa that I've had for around 45 years. They don't grow or cause discomfort, but they don't go away either. Plus, there's some white stuff on my tonsils. I saw an ENT in December who checked everything and said it was normal, suggesting I gargle with saline water or hydrogen peroxide. But I'm just wondering if these bumps will ever go away on their own or if I'm stuck with them forever. What do you think?

I got a fracture in my sinus bone with a displaced nose bone and nasal septum - the doctor recommended surgery for both. Is surgery really necessary or are there other options? What's the recovery like if I go through with it?
Fractured sinus with displacement often needs surgery—recovery is 2–4 weeks post-op.

I've been dealing with some really bad ear pain for the last three days, and it's only in my left ear. It's so painful that I can't even eat anything. It feels like there's something stuck in there, but when I try to put my finger in to check, it just hurts too much. What could be going on with my ear, and should I be worried about this?
