I'm using otomize ear spray for an ear infection, but after a few days, it doesn't seem to be helping. It's still really painful, and now my neck glands under the infected ear are swollen and tender. Plus, I've developed a sore throat. Should I consider making an appointment to see if they could give me a different prescription?

I've been feeling really dizzy since yesterday whenever I lie down or get up. It also happens when I shake my head. Should I see an ENT specialist for this, or would another specialist be better?

Your symptoms suggest benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), a common inner ear disorder; consider consulting an ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) specialist or a neurologist for a proper evaluation and treatment, which may include the Epley maneuver or other exercises to help alleviate the dizziness.

I've been feeling this weird needle-like sensation in my throat for a couple of days. There's no soreness or itchiness, and I don't have a cold or anything. It actually feels better when I drink something warm. Do you think taking something like Azithromycin or Amoxy Clav would help?

That could be mucosal congestion consume warm liquids for a day and check if its still there you can take either of the tablet .

I keep sneezing and getting a cold every morning no matter what I try - I've done alopathy, homeopathy, and ayurvedic treatments but nothing helps. One doctor mentioned I might have extra nose bone growth needing surgery, but said there's only a 50% chance it'll work. What do you think about this diagnosis and treatment option?

i feel that you have allergic rhinitis. You can start with a steroid nasal spray twice daily. If no relief, consult another ENT surgeon and get evaluated whether surgery will help or not. But allergy per se may not go away with surgery. You will need spray and avoidance of allergens.
