I've been dealing with dry sinusitis for a couple of months now and it's been really uncomfortable because there's no mucous forming at all in my nostril. I'm using Nasoclear saline spray and Otrivin only when its absolutely necessary. I've noticed there's some swelling in my left nasal wall, and a little bit on the right too. I'm feeling like I really need a good nasal moisturizer, but I'm not sure what treatment would be best to fix this. What should I do?

Ouch, that sounds painful!
Swallowing warm food can cause:
- Esophageal burns or scalds
- Inflammation and irritation
To alleviate the discomfort:
- Avoid spicy, acidic, or hot foodsdrinks
- Opt for soft, bland, and cool foods (e.g., yogurt, scrambled eggs)
- Stay hydrated with lukewarm water
- Consider over-the-counter antacids or pain relievers
If the pain persists or worsens, consult a doctor for proper evaluation and guidance.

I'm having this issue where soap got into my ear and now there's this constant beeping sound. I'm 19, and I tried using ear drops called Waxrid from Kaizen Drugs. But I'm not sure how many drops I should use. Can you help me figure it out?

I've had a deviated septum and sinus blocks for almost two years now with constant colds and throat infections. I've been doing saline washes, warm compresses, and steam which help but my doctor recommended sinus drainage and correction surgery. I'm really nervous about surgery especially since I have two little kids and can't afford long recovery time. Will sticking to these home remedies clear the mucus completely or is there still a risk of infection? How long would recovery take if I do go for surgery could it be just a couple days or longer?
Given your long-standing deviated septum and sinus blocks, along with frequent colds and throat infections, it's important to seek professional medical advice. While saline washes can help manage symptoms, they may not address the underlying structural issues contributing to your problems. Consult an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist for a thorough examination and personalized treatment plan, which may include surgical correction of the deviated septum or other procedures to address sinus blockages.
