I've been dealing with Vertigo for about 2 years now, and it's really getting to me. Back in 2012, I had a bad accident but was told there were no major issues, just some muscle spasms. But then around June 2015, I started feeling off-balance when driving. I saw a cardiologist, and he said I have MVP but didnt think it was anything seriousjust gave me Starpress XL 25 mg. My blood tests all came back okay except my sugar was borderline, and my BP was fine too. An endocrinologist ruled out any sugar or BP issues. Finally, an ENT said it's Vertigo. My right ear often feels full and occasionally hurts. Things were okay for the last few months, but now, within the past 10 days, the imbalance is back. Im on Vertin 16 mg and Stematil MD, but what else can I do? This is super frustrating. Any ideas on how to handle this?

View allMy mom's eardrum is ruptured and sometimes bleeds from her ear. The doctor in Bangalore suggested surgery but I'm really worried since she's 49. Will she face major issues with this condition? Are there any other treatment options besides surgery?
Eardrum rupture may heal with precautions; surgery only if it persists or worsens—follow-up ENT is essential.

I'm really struggling with a sore throat and it's becoming hard to swallow my saliva. I think it might be a bacterial infection. Do you have any suggestions on what medication I should take to feel better?
Throat pain and difficulty swallowing saliva could be a sign of a bacterial infection like strep throat. It's important to consult with a doctor who may prescribe an antibiotic like amoxicillin or azithromycin. In the meantime, you can use throat lozenges and warm saline gargles for relief.

I've been having this pain in the back of my throat for a while now, like 3 months, and even though Ive seen a few doctors, they didnt seem worried. But I finally saw a gastroenterologist who said I have reflux and also treated me for an intestine infection, which is better now. The chest pain's still there though, and he thought it might be osteochondritis but said it should go if the infection cleared up, which hasn't happened. Im mostly worried because I noticed really dark veins in my throat, and even after finishing a treatment for a throat infection a few days back, there's still some pain. Also, my ear started inflaming about 4 months ago, and while ibuprofen helped last month, it's bothering me again, especially at night. Could this all be connected somehow?
Its good that youve been working with doctors to address your symptoms, but since theyve persisted and seem to be affecting multiple areas, it would be helpful to follow up with specialists, like an ENT or a musculoskeletal specialist, to further evaluate your throat, chest, and ear symptoms. Its possible that the ear pain and throat discomfort are related to your GERD or a lingering infection, but a more thorough examination will help provide clarity.
