I'm waking up with a really weird sensation, like there's something rubbery or mucus-like stuck in my throat or behind my voice box. I've had post-nasal drip before and even saw an ENT specialist about it. I don't have any allergies. I had a CT scan a couple of months ago, and it showed minimal mucosal thickening in my right maxillary sinus. I also used a Netipot for about a week. Now, I'm dealing with some nasal obstruction. Could this obstruction be the reason for the rubbery mucus feeling?

View allMy left ear has been feeling blocked for the last 45 days. It started as a feeling of it blocking and opening on and off, but today it's feeling more blocked than ever, and there's some mild pain now and then. I'm really getting worried. Any idea what's happening or what I should do about it?
It sounds like you may be experiencing a buildup of earwax causing a blockage in your left ear. I recommend using over-the-counter ear drops such as Debrox to help soften the earwax and facilitate its removal. You can also try using a bulb syringe to gently flush out the ear with warm water. If the symptoms persist, you may need to see a doctor for further evaluation and treatment.

My son needs to get his tonsils removed and we're considering surgery. Can you tell me what types of tonsil surgeries are available and which one is less painful? Also, how long does recovery usually take after the procedure?
The two main types of tonsillectomy surgery are: Traditional tonsillectomy: Both tonsils are completely removed. Intracapsular tonsillectomy: The surgeon removes all the affected tonsil tissue, but leaves a small layer to protect the throat muscles underneath.
