I've been dealing with unilateral hearing loss in my right ear for about 16 years now not sure if it's been there since birth. Is there any way to treat this naturally without surgery or hearing aids? What would be the fastest and most effective option for me?

My 6-year-old daughter has had enlarged adenoids for the last 4 years, and we really want to avoid surgery. We've seen multiple doctors in Bangalore, but nothing has helped. She constantly has a runny nose and breathes through her mouth. We take extreme care she only eats homemade food, drinks warm water, avoids milk and curd, and can't even play outside or wash hands with normal tap water. Her immunity seems very weak, and she struggles with basic things like taking a head bath without staying indoors the whole day. It's heartbreaking to see her like this. Is there any way to improve her condition without surgery? How can we strengthen her immunity and help her live a normal life?

Taking daily cold showers with a slight sinus infection may exacerbate your condition, as cold water can cause nasal passages to constrict, increase mucus production, and potentially worsen sinus congestion; however, some people find that cold showers help reduce inflammation and improve circulation, which may alleviate sinus symptoms.
