I've been dealing with really bad sinus issues for the past few days, and it's causing intense headaches, especially on the left side of my face. The pain is pretty severe, and even though I saw a doctor who prescribed meds, nothing's helping. They mentioned sinus surgery as an option do you perform that? I also have insurance and wanted to check if it's covered. What do you think I should do next?

Intense, left-sided headaches accompanied by sinus issues could indicate a sinus infection or other sinus-related conditions. To manage these symptoms, try saline nasal sprays, warm compresses, and steam inhalation. If symptoms worsen or persist, consult a doctor.

View allI had surgery yesterday and I've noticed that my uvula has gotten really elongated, almost laying on my tongue. Is this something I should be worried about? Is it normal after surgery or should I get it checked out?

I've been dealing with a bad cold I caught about three weeks ago. It seems like the main infection cleared up, but I'm still experiencing this choking sensation in my throat, although it happens off and on. I can feel some phlegm sitting there, but swallowing isn't an issue. My breathing is fine too, and I only really cough to try and clear my throat. Should I be worried about this lingering issue, or is it normal after a cold?
Its common to experience lingering throat discomfort or mucus production after a cold, and it sounds like youre on the road to recovery. Keep practicing hydration, using a humidifier, and potentially using saline sprays to help clear your sinuses. If the symptoms persist or become bothersome, a follow-up with your healthcare provider might be necessary to make sure theres no underlying issue, like post-viral inflammation or infection.

I often wake up feeling like there's something stuck in the back of my throat, kind of like phlegm, but it feels more like a rubbery slime or clay. It's really making me feel nauseous and I'm wondering if there's any medicine to help with it. I've had sinusitis before, which got better, but this still happens. When I eat, I sometimes can't swallow properly, and other times my throat gets super dry, and I think some cough might have gotten frozen in there due to fungus or something. What could this be, and is there a treatment for it?
take syrup ascoril twice a day for 5 days
