I've been dealing with daily nasal infections for years and take night montek lc regularly but every morning I wake up with nasal mucosa discharge even after my septoplasty surgery what should I do to stop this
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
To address persistent morning nasal discharge despite regular medication and a septoplasty, a comprehensive approach including identifying the cause and implementing specific treatment strategies is recommended. This could involve further testing for allergies or infections, exploring the possibility of nasal polyps or other structural issues, and potentially adjusting your medication or trying alternative therapies like nasal irrigation or steroid sprays

View allI've been dealing with this weird ear issue for a few months now. It started with this clicking sound in my left ear only when I talked, and then I began noticing this crackling sound in both ears while yawning. Initially, the ENT said it was an Eustachian tube blockage, but there's been no pain at all. The clicking seemed to go away for a while, but now its back and feels pretty recurrent. I'm really curious and slightly worried about what might be causing this, and wondering what you think could be going on. Is it really just a blockage, or could there be something else happening? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this.
The recurrent clicking in your left ear, accompanied by crackling in both ears during yawning, suggests Eustachian tube dysfunction (ETD), as diagnosed by your ENT specialist; to manage symptoms, try: nasal decongestants, ear drops, and exercises like the Toynbee maneuver (swallowing while pinching the nose) and Valsalva maneuver (exhaling while pinching the nose and closing the mouth), and consult your ENT specialist for further guidance and potential tympanometry testing.

I've been having this strange sound in my ear, like a buzzing or hissing, and I think it's tinnitus. It's been going on for about four months now, and it only happens in one ear. It's making it really hard for me to sleep or focus during the day. I've read that tinnitus might not be treatable, and I'm feeling really stuck. Could you maybe give me some advice or guidance on what I should do next?
Feeling like something is stuck in your throat can be unsettling! Given your tobacco and pan masala addiction, it's essential to take this symptom seriously. _Possible Causes_ 1. _Oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF)_: A precancerous condition common in tobacco and pan masala users. 2. _Tobacco-related lesions_: Leukoplakia, erythroplakia, or other lesions can cause throat irritation. 3. _Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)_: Stomach acid flowing up into the throat can cause discomfort. 4. _Throat infection or inflammation_: Bacterial or viral infections can cause throat irritation. _Cancer Risk_ While it's impossible to diagnose cancer without a medical examination, your tobacco and pan masala addiction increases your risk of developing oral, throat, or esophageal cancer. _Urgent Action Required_ 1. _Consult an ENT specialist or oncologist_: Schedule an appointment for a thorough examination and diagnosis. 2. _Get a biopsy or imaging tests_: If necessary, undergo tests to rule out cancer or other serious conditions. 3. _Quit tobacco and pan masala_: Seek professional help to overcome your addiction and reduce your cancer risk. Don't delay seeking medical attention. Early diagnosis and treatment can significantly improve outcomes.

I've been using Nasivion nasal drops for the past 10 years and can't seem to stop even after consulting doctors. One doctor suggested switching to Alligra M and saline drops while reducing the amount, but it's been really tough for me. Is there any surgery or alternative treatment that could help with this dependency?
Long-term use of nasal drops can cause rebound congestion. A gradual taper using saline sprays and antihistamines may help; surgery (like turbinate reduction) is an option if conservative measures fail.
