I've been dealing with a cold for almost two months now and it's getting really frustrating. I'm doing steam inhalation every day and using a nasal spray that my doctor prescribed, so my nose isn't blocked at the moment. But it feels like there's something stuck in my throat that Im constantly trying to spit out. Every time I do, it feels like there's a connection to my ears, which is really uncomfortable. On top of that, I've got an eye infection that just won't go away. I've been on medication for a month now with no real improvement. Could you give me some advice on what might be going on?

I have a sinus issue and a deviated nasal bone that makes my blocked nose worse. I don't want surgery but rely on OTRIVIN drops for temporary relief. Are there other ways to manage this? It's really hard to deal with daily.

Yes, there are alternative ways to manage a deviated septum and sinus issues without surgery, such as using saline nasal sprays, avoiding triggers, and incorporating home remedies like steam inhalation and humidifiers.

I've been dealing with a throat ulcer I got treated for about three weeks ago. I saw an ENT specialist and took all the prescribed medication. While the ulcer seems to be healed, I'm worried because I still can't talk or get my voice back. It's been over three weeks since this started and I'm really concerned. What should I do about this?
