I'm really worried because my baby has had a fever since yesterday. It's strange because only his head feels hot. I've noticed some kind of lymph nodes under his ear too. Should I be concerned and get him medication right away?

My right nostril has been completely blocked for the past three months. The doctor diagnosed it as DNS and recommended surgery, but I've been trying homeopathy for a month with no relief. What else can I do to improve this?

If homeopathy hasn‚Äôt helped, an ENT might recommend septoplasty or radiofrequency ablation. Nasal sprays and steam inhalation may help temporarily.
