I've been dealing with a cough and cold for the last few days, and just recently, my left ear has started to ring. Could this tinnitus be related to the cold and cough? It's really persistent and not going away. What's going on?

I've had swelling under my right jawline for the past 14 days, and it hurts when I eat. A scan showed a 7mm stone in the main duct where it comes out of the gland. The pain has stopped for the last 3 days, but I can still feel the lump. Is surgery the only option for this? If so, would it be done through the mouth or from outside the neck? Can I get sialendoscopy instead, and where's the nearest place to get it done in Amritsar?

A salivary gland stone is the likely culprit of your swollen jaw and pain when eating. While surgery is an option, sialendoscopy (a minimally invasive procedure) is often a first choice. It's best to seek a specialist's opinion on the best course of action

I've been having some trouble with my throat over the past year. It started with it getting really dry at night, even though I'm drinking a lot of water. Then, a few weeks ago, these solid white sticky stones started forming near my tonsils. They smelled really bad, but I managed to remove them a couple of times using a toothbrush and cotton stick when they got to about 0.25cm. But now, it feels like there's a bigger stone deeper in my throat that I just can't reach or see, even with a mirror. Gargling with salt water and coughing hasn't helped at all, and it's so uncomfortable when I eat or drink. I'm not sure if it's the same kind of stone growing back or something else entirely. What do you think it could be, and what can I do about it?

I'm feeling this heaviness in my left ear after I got slapped, and it just feels sort of blank. There's this dull, heavy sensation and a little bit of pain. Should I be worried? What could be causing this?
