I've been dealing with allergic rhinitis ever since I was a kid. One side of my nose always seems to be blocked. It's really frustrating and I'm wondering if there's something more I should be doing to manage it. Are there any specific treatments or lifestyle changes I should be considering?

View allHey, I'm really worried about my mom. Shes been dealing with vertigo, and our family doctor says its related to her middle ear. For the past two days, shes been stuck in bed. Every little move makes her so dizzy, and she even vomits when trying to get up. On top of that, staying in bed has caused her shoulder and back to hurt terribly. What can we do to help her feel better and get rid of this quickly? This is all so sudden and she's never had these issues before. She's on vertistar md8 as prescribed. Any advice would be appreciated.
For vertigo symptoms related to the middle ear, it is important to continue taking Vertistar MD-8 as prescribed by the doctor. In addition, I recommend keeping her well-hydrated and ensuring she gets plenty of rest. To alleviate the symptoms of dizziness and vomiting, she can also take 'Stugeron' which helps in relieving vertigo symptoms. For the shoulder and back pain, she can take 'Flexon' to help with the discomfort. It is advisable for her to avoid sudden head movements and to slowly change positions to prevent triggering vertigo episodes. If her symptoms persist or worsen, please consult with your family doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm experiencing something strange with my nose. There's this yellow runny liquid coming out, and it kind of looks like urine but it isn't the usual nasal discharge. I've just recently gotten over a cold about 23 days ago, so I'm not sure if it's related. It feels similar to when you have a nosebleed but without any blood. It's been happening for about a day now, just in small drips. I'm really confused and would appreciate some advice on what might be going on. Any thoughts?
You may be experiencing a condition called cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) rhinorrhea, where there is a leakage of clear fluid from the nose. This can sometimes be mistaken for urine due to its color and consistency. CSF rhinorrhea can occur after a head injury or surgery, but in some cases, it can also happen spontaneously. In your case, since you mentioned having a cold recently, it is possible that the increased pressure from coughing or sneezing during the cold may have caused a small tear in the tissue surrounding your brain and spinal cord, leading to the leakage of clear fluid. I recommend you see a doctor as soon as possible for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, it is important to avoid blowing your nose forcefully and to keep your head elevated to potentially reduce the leakage.

I'm really worried because after I cleaned my ear and started using the antibiotic ear drops like I was told, some of the drops ended up in my mouth. Now I'm also feeling this burning sensation deep inside my ear. What should I do about this?
