I've been dealing with allergic sinus infection for the past 2-3 months and recently had a CT PNS scan. The ENT specialist recommended surgery to reduce swelling and clear the blockage, but I'm wondering if homeopathic treatment could permanently fix the sinus issue without needing surgery

If it is allergic nasal wash and steroid spray can take care of it. Get a allergy test done and treat the allergy by immunotherapy. Surgery is done if all measures to clear sinuses are exhausted and you have a blocked nose

I'm wondering if it's safe to use hydrogen peroxide to clean my ears, especially if an insect accidentally crawled in while I was sleeping. Is hydrogen peroxide effective and safe for removing insects from the ear? Im a bit worried and would love some guidance on this.

I have a deviated nasal septum and enlarged turbinates along with chronic sinusitis and I've been having constant face pain, headaches, and even eye and joint pain. My ENT recommended surgery but said it might not fix the headaches. Should I still consider the surgery or are there other options I can try first?

septoplasty for DNS is advised to the patient if conservative treatment is ineffective.
