I'm trying to understand a recent report I got. It mentions "mild DNS toward the right" and "bilateral concha bullosa," plus something about "pneumatization of the left anterior clenoid process" being an anatomical variant. Can you help me make sense of what these terms mean for my health? Should I be worried about any of this?

If you're experiencing symptoms like nasal obstruction, sinus infections, or facial pressure, you may benefit from:

Medical treatment: Nasal sprays, antihistamines, or decongestants. Surgical evaluation: If symptoms persist, consult an ENT specialist. Procedures like septoplasty or turbinate reduction might be considered.

I've been dealing with allergic rhinitis since 2006 and usually take allercet tablets when needed, sometimes with flomist nasal spray though it doesn't always work. I'm worried about long-term side effects of taking allercet regularly - are there any risks? Mornings are the worst with constant sneezing, runny nose and itchy red eyes. The allercet makes me feel drowsy too. Are there better treatment options or even surgery that could help me live more normally without these symptoms

Long-term Allercet use may cause drowsiness; consider immunotherapy or consulting an ENT for possible surgical correction of chronic allergic rhinitis.

I've been noticing that every time I wash my hair with lukewarm water, my head feels really cold afterward. It's strange because I also end up with a sore throat, especially when I've been caught in the rain too. I'm starting to wonder if there's a connection here or if I'm doing something wrong. Can you help me figure out why this might be happening?

You may be experiencing cold symptoms triggered by changes in temperature. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try taking an over-the-counter medication like Tylenol Cold + Flu Severe for relief. Additionally, you can consider using a throat lozenge like Strepsils to soothe your sore throat. Make sure to stay warm and dry to prevent further discomfort.
