I've been dealing with this discomfort for over a week now, like something is stuck in my throat and just won't go away. It's not affecting my eating, but it's really bothering me. Any idea what this could be or how to get rid of it?

Heaviness in the head, ear blockage, and facial pain can be uncomfortable.
Considering your raised IgE and nasal corticosteroid medication, possible causes include:
- Allergic rhinitis exacerbation
- Sinus pressure or infection
- Eustachian tube dysfunction
Consult your doctor or an ENT specialist to discuss:
- Adjusting your medication
- Additional treatments (e.g., decongestants, antihistamines)
- Further evaluation (e.g., sinus imaging, allergy testing)

View allI've got a pleomorphic adenoma on my left parotid gland again since 2010. I recently went through Sonography, FNAC, and a CT Scan, and they all say it's still there. Everything else around it seems normal, thankfully. My doctors are advising me to go for a Parotidectomy. I'm feeling a bit unsure and worried about this. Could anyone offer some guidance on what I should consider before making a decision?
The most common treatment for a parotid gland adenoma is surgery to remove the tumor, a procedure called a parotidectomy

I'm experiencing a burning feeling in my left nostril, and alongside it, there's a mild ache on the upper lid of my eye. There's also this pain around my left eyebrow that's been nagging me. Do you have any idea what could be causing this?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of sinusitis, which is inflammation of the sinuses. The burning sensation in your left nostril, mild ache on the upper lid of your eye, and pain in your left eyebrow are all common symptoms of sinusitis. I recommend taking a decongestant like Sudafed (pseudoephedrine) 30mg every 4-6 hours as needed for nasal congestion. Additionally, you can take ibuprofen (Advil) 400mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain relief. Make sure to stay hydrated and consider using a saline nasal spray to help with congestion. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it's important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
