Question

I'm trying to get some information about what my options are for dealing with a deviated nasal septum. Could you explain what the surgery involves, any potential complications, and how long the recovery typically takes? I'm a bit concerned and would really appreciate some clarity on this.

The latest procedure is an Endoscopic Nasal Surgery which can be done as a daycare procedure. Advantages include breathing nasally immediately after surgery( no packsbandages to nose), no enlargement of structure of nose externally, no complications like septal synaechaeseptal perforationseptal saddlingseptal abscess! Costs a bit more than conventional septoplasty surgery but for all these advantages... Well worth the premium costing!

Question

I'm feeling like there's something stuck in my throat. Whenever I swallow or drink water, it feels like something's lodged right in the middle. It's weird because I don't notice it while I'm eating, but afterwards, that sensation comes back. Also, I've noticed these small pink pimple-like bumps towards the back of my tongue. What's going on with me?

Question

I've been dealing with sinus issues for almost 25 years, and it seems to get worse whenever the climate changes. I've been using Nosikind drops for my nose, which helps a bit but not completely. It usually starts with a scratchy throat, and by the next day, I have a runny nose, body aches, and sometimes a fever. I've tried so many medications but they only seem to work for a short time before my symptoms come back. What else can I do to manage these symptoms better?
