I've been dealing with a cold for the last two years and have been using Cetirizine to manage it. I suspect it might be sinus-related. Is there a way to permanently cure sinus issues?

For snoring, consider over-the-counter (OTC) options or consult a doctor for prescription medications.

OTC options:

  • SnoreStop (contains natural ingredients like eucalyptus)
  • SnoreEase (a homeopathic remedy)
  • Nasal strips or dilators (e.g., Breathe Right)

Prescription options (consult a doctor):

  • Decongestants or nasal steroids (e.g., fluticasone)
  • Sleep apnea treatments (if diagnosed)

Lifestyle changes:

  • Weight loss (if applicable)
  • Sleeping on her side
  • Elevating the head of the bed
  • Avoiding sedatives or alcohol before bedtime

my 4.5-year-old keeps getting colds and snores a lot should we consider surgery or can medicine fix this im worried it wont go away on its own

If your child is frequently snoring and getting colds, it may be due to enlarged adenoids or tonsils. Consult an ENT specialist to assess whether surgery (like adenoidectomy or tonsillectomy) is needed.

I'm really struggling with this constant cough I've got in my throat; it's there almost all the time and I end up coughing a lot just to clear it. It's getting pretty unbearable for me. Sometimes, I even feel like something is dripping slowly from the top part of my nose. I recently had an NCCT PNS scan done, and my doctor says there's nothing serious going on, just recommended breathing exercises like Pranayam and some jogging, which honestly haven't helped much so far. Before making any more moves, I'd like to get a deeper understanding of what's actually in the report, especially the IMPRESSION part. Can you help explain what the medical findings mean?

I'm dealing with what I think might be vertigo issuesfeeling like I'm spinning and having trouble keeping my balance. My ENT doctor recommended Vertin 16 mg about 8 months ago, and I've been taking it as needed. I'm just wondering, is this something that can be cured over time? Also, should I make it a point to consult my doctor every single time these symptoms show up, or is it okay to manage it with the medication on my own? What do you suggest?
