I've been dealing with a blocked nose due to sinus issues for the past 5 years and have relied on Otrivin for relief. An ENT specialist recommended FESS surgery, but it's too expensive for me right now. Are there any other treatments or alternatives that could help improve my condition without surgery?

Consider nasal irrigation, antihistamines, and steroids first; FESS surgery is a last resort if all else fails.

View allI've been struggling to hear soft or low-volume voices lately and it's really frustrating. Are there any remedies for this besides hearing aids? Also, is there a non-surgical solution that could help improve my hearing?
If you're struggling with low-volume hearing, there might be treatments like hearing aids or cochlear implants, but it’s best to consult an ENT specialist. Non-surgical options might include therapies or devices to amplify sound.

I'm dealing with this ongoing issue where my throat really hurts when I'm drinking or eating, and it feels like the pain stretches from my throat to my right ear. It's been happening for about three months now. What's going on with this, and should I be concerned?
could be due to inflammation or infection in that area. I recommend taking a course of antibiotics like Amoxicillin. Additionally, you can take over-the-counter pain relief like Acetaminophen 500mg as needed for pain relief. Gargling with warm salt water several times a day can also help alleviate the discomfort. If the symptoms persist, it is advisable to consult an ENT specialist for further evaluation and management.

I've been hearing this continuous beep in my right ear since yesterday evening, and it just won't stop, not even for a second. I tried using the ear drops you mentioned last night, but it didn't make a difference. I'm wondering what could be causing this and what steps I should take next. Im 30 and havent had any major medical issues or allergies before. Could you help me figure this out?
That could be ear effusion, practice valsalva manoeuvre u will feel relieved.
