I've been dealing with recurring fevers for the last three months, and it's really been a struggle. Ever since I was a kid, I've had issues with my tonsils. Anytime I'm exposed to cold weather, I end up with a fever, throat pain, and a cold. Recently, I also got typhoid, and although the medicines help for about ten days, the symptoms just keep coming back. This cycle has been repeating over and over, and I'm not sure what to do next. Can you offer any advice or solutions?

I've had my ears blocked for the past 4 days, and I think it might be due to a cold I had. Not completely sure, though. It sometimes feels like there's water or some fluid in there, and occasionally, when I sneeze, the blockage goes away for a few seconds, but then it comes back. There's a little pain too, which is why I've been taking oxalgin tablets and using drep ear drops. What could be causing this, and should I be doing something different?
It sounds like you may be experiencing Eustachian tube dysfunction due to your recent cold. To help relieve the blockage and pain in your ears, I recommend taking a decongestant like Sudafed (pseudoephedrine) to help reduce the swelling in the Eustachian tubes. You can also try using a nasal spray like Afrin (oxymetazoline) to further reduce congestion. Additionally, continue using the Otrivin ear drops for relief. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions for each medication. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it would be best to consult with an ENT specialist for further evaluation and management.

My 5-year-old has enlarged adenoids and keeps getting ear infections. The doctor mentioned surgery but I'm worried can medicines shrink adenoids or is surgery the only option? What are the risks if we delay surgery?
Mild to moderate adenoid issues might improve with nasal steroids and avoiding allergens. Persistent infections may require adenoidectomy.
