I'm using Ceruklin ear softening drops to try and get rid of my ear wax, and I've been doing this for the past five days, but it's still not coming out. How much longer should I keep using these drops?

While there's no definitive "cure" for allergic rhinitis, treatment options can help manage symptoms:
Treatment Options
- Medications: Antihistamines, nasal corticosteroids, and decongestants.
- Immunotherapy: Allergy shots or sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) to build tolerance.
- Lifestyle Changes: Dust mite control, HEPA filters, and avoiding strong fragrances.
Next Steps
- Consult an allergist or immunologist for personalized guidance.
- Explore immunotherapy options to desensitize yourself to dust mites and histamine.
- Develop a comprehensive management plan to minimize symptoms.

View allI'm experiencing this strange sensation like there's water stuck in my throat, and it's been going on since yesterday. It's kinda freaking me out, and I'm not sure what could be causing it. Is this something I should be worried about or maybe just a minor thing that'll pass? Any ideas on what this might be or how I could find some relief?
The sensation of having water stuck in your throat could be due to various reasons such as acid reflux, postnasal drip, or a swollen throat; try gargling with warm salt water, sipping warm tea, or taking antacids to alleviate the discomfort, and if the sensation persists, consult a primary care physician or an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist to rule out any underlying conditions.

I've been dealing with constant ear blockages and this uncomfortable feeling in my throat and chest ever since I got over COVID three months ago. It's weird because whenever I try to spit, I get this sharp pain in my ear, throat, and chest all at once. I feel like there's something stuck in my throat, and it's getting hard to breathe sometimes. Could this be related to post-COVID symptoms? I also had anxiety and palpitations after COVID and was on ivabradine and Nexito Plus. Any idea what's going on with me?
The pain under the left side of the tongue could be due to: 1. Sublingual gland infection or inflammation 2. Salivary gland stone 3. Lingual tonsillitis 4. Trauma or injury 5.

I had LASIK surgery 3 years ago but now I'm having pain in my left eye and the upper part around my eyebrow. Multiple ophthalmologists say everything looks fine and suggested I see an ENT for possible sinusitis. Could this eye and brow pain actually be from a sinus infection?
Persistent pain post-LASIK may suggest sinus-related issues; an ENT consultation is appropriate for sinusitis evaluation.
