I've been dealing with a sore throat for the last month and a half, and I've noticed these red bumps at the back of my throat. It feels like something's stuck there every time I swallow. Plus, there's some weird growth of flesh on both sides of my tonsils. What's going on here?

It sounds like you may be experiencing chronic tonsillitis with the symptoms you described. I recommend you start with a course of antibiotics to help clear the infection. You can take Amoxicillin 500mg three times a day for 7-10 days. Additionally, you can use throat lozenges like Strepsils to help soothe your throat. It's important to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest to help your body fight off the infection. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it's best to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation.

View allMy doctor said I might need surgery for a hole in my eardrum. How do they usually do this procedure? Are there any medications that can help instead of surgery? I'm a bit worried about what to expect.
If a hole in your eardrum (ruptured eardrum) doesn't heal on its own, surgery might be needed to repair it. The most common surgical procedure is called tympanoplasty or myringoplasty, where a patch of tissue is used to cover the hole. While some cases heal without treatment, surgery is often required if the eardrum doesn't heal within a few months or if complications like infection or hearing loss occur

I've been having ear pain and dizziness in the evenings, and I think there might be a hole in my right ear because water keeps getting in. Is there any way to treat this without surgery? What can I do to recover naturally?

I just found out I have mild DNS on the right side of my nose and my bilateral inferior turbinates are hypertrophied. What does all this mean for my breathing or overall nose health? Is this something I should be worried about, and are there any treatments I should consider? I'm a bit concerned about how this might affect me day-to-day.
