I'm worried about my child who's been having issues with adenoids. Could you let me know who would be the best kind of doctor to help with this? Would really appreciate any details or suggestions.

I've had two Tympanoplasty surgeries, one in 2011 that didn't work out and then another in 2014 after having sinus surgery and surgery for a deviated nasal septum. The doctor said back then that I shouldnt swim for the rest of my life because of the ear infections. Its been a few years now and I'm wondering if its still risky to swim or if things might have changed with my ear health?

It is important to follow the advice of your doctor after Tympanoplasty, especially if there have been complications such as infections in the past. Swimming can introduce water into the ear canal, which may increase the risk of infection or damage to the eardrum. To protect your ear health, it is advisable to avoid swimming or to use ear protection such as earplugs while swimming.

I've noticed that sometimes when I bend my neck or look down, water suddenly comes out through my nose. I'm a bit concerned and wondering if this could be something serious. Is this something I should be worried about?

You may be experiencing a condition called cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea, where cerebrospinal fluid leaks through the nose. This can be caused by a skull base fracture or a tear in the membrane surrounding the brain. It is important to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management. Medications such as acetazolamide and gabapentin may be prescribed to reduce the production of cerebrospinal fluid.

I've been having this mild pain on the right side of my throat. It's sort of around the mid to lower area, but I don't have a fever or a sore throat. It's been bothering me a bit, and I'm not sure what's going on. Any idea what might be causing this?

Right side throat pain with no fever or sore throat could be due to various reasons such as muscle strain, acid reflux, or even a mild infection. To help alleviate the pain, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil) at the recommended dosage. Additionally, you can try gargling with warm salt water to soothe the throat. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
