I've been dealing with sinus issues for almost 25 years, and it seems to get worse whenever the climate changes. I've been using Nosikind drops for my nose, which helps a bit but not completely. It usually starts with a scratchy throat, and by the next day, I have a runny nose, body aches, and sometimes a fever. I've tried so many medications but they only seem to work for a short time before my symptoms come back. What else can I do to manage these symptoms better?

View allI've had this hearing issue for 10-12 years and seen many doctors without a clear solution. Recently, an audiometry test showed my right ear is fine but the left ear doesn't pick up any beeps at any frequency. The doctor said there's no treatment except a hearing aid and ruled out surgery unless it's a bone or tumor issue. They mentioned one surgery option but said it's not guaranteed since it might be a nerve problem. Is there really no way to fix this 100% or am I stuck with a hearing aid for life?

I've had a lump next to my right ear tragus for about a year and it's been growing bigger lately. Sometimes it hurts too. Should I consider surgery or are there other options? What do you suggest I do about it?
It's crucial to see a doctor for evaluation of the lump near your tragus, especially since it's growing and causing pain. A doctor can determine the cause and recommend the best course of treatment, which may or may not involve surgery

I've been diagnosed with cholesteatoma and need to understand the surgery options traditional tools vs laser-assisted like KTP laser. Which method has lower risks of hearing loss and recurrence? If laser is better, are there experienced surgeons in Bangalore or Chennai who use this technique?
Laser-assisted cholesteatoma surgery, particularly using a KTP laser, has shown potential for reduced risks of hearing loss and recurrence compared to traditional methods. KTP lasers can minimize mechanical trauma and help achieve complete disease removal. To find experienced surgeons in Bangalore or Chennai using this technique, research hospitals and clinics specializing in otology (ear, nose, and throat) and inquire about their experience with KTP laser-assisted cholesteatoma surgery.
