I'm still dealing with a runny nose even 25 days after testing positive for COVID. I actually started having this runny nose about a week before my test, so it's been over a month now. Throughout this time, I haven't had any other symptomsjust the runny nose. My doctor suggested I take MontairLC, and I've been on it for five days, but there's been no change. Is a runny nose normal after having COVID, or is this something more serious? Could it be a fungal infection? What should I do next?

It's possible that your runny nose could be related to a post-COVID condition, or it might be a sign of another infection, such as a fungal infection. However, without further evaluation, it's difficult to determine the exact cause.

I have a sinus infection and bad headaches because my nose is bent. Is it possible to straighten my nose without surgery? I'm really worried about this

While a deviated septum causing sinus issues and headaches can be bothersome, surgery (septoplasty) is generally the only way to correct a deviated septum. However, managing symptoms with medications and possibly nonsurgical rhinoplasty might provide relief and address the appearance of the nose.

I had earwax removed and now I'm hearing sounds in my ear. One doctor mentioned there's a hole in my middle ear and suggested surgery, while another advised waiting 3 months to see if it heals naturally and recommended daily steam. Can a hole in the ear heal on its own, and what are the chances of natural recovery?

for P/E ENT specialist opinion is advised to the patient.
