Ive been experiencing this annoying beep noise in my left ear for quite some time now. It gets more noticeable when Im in a quiet place and seems to disappear when theres a lot of noise around me. The doctor mentioned it might be tinnitus and gave me some meds, but they dont seem to be working. Could it really be tinnitus, or might it be something else?

Tinnitus is ringing sound in the ear...it may be due to impacted wax,fluid in the middle ear,acute or chronic otitis media, abnormally patent eustachian tube, minieres disease, otosclerosis,noise trauma, ototoxic drugs etc...it may be due to non otologic conditions like Anaemia, hypertension, hypotension, arteriosclerosis, hypoglycemia,epilepsy,migraine etc...so detailed clinical examination and evaluation needed Consult nearest ent specialist they will do the needful.

I'm dealing with Allergic Rhinitis Asthma and some level of Obstructive Sleep Apnea. I've been using NazomacAF nasal spray in both nostrils every couple of days. Since starting it, my nasal congestion has pretty much vanished and I'm not having any breathing issues. But I'm really curious if it's safe to use this spray long-term when I'm using it once every two days. Also, I haven't seen any improvement with my snoring since I began using it. What should I know about this?

Continue same treatment as advised by the physician.

I've noticed a small, white, pimple-like spot on the right side of my throat that's been there for about 10-12 days now. I've started taking Becasoule and Cetirizine for the past two days, but I'm not sure if that's helping. Should I be worried about this, or is there something else I should be doing?

That could be leukoplakia or malakoplkia visit ENT doctor for evaluation and appropriate treatment

I've been dealing with nasal issues and got mixed opinions one doctor did an endoscopy and said I have DNS to the right, recommending surgery, while three others who checked my CT scan said it's just allergies and prescribed Cetirizine. The meds help but leave my nose and throat super dry, and the mucus is white. The weird part is I don't sneeze from typical triggers like dust or sunlight, but after sex, I feel like my immune system drops and cold-like symptoms kick in, leading to sneezing. If I skip meds for a couple of days, even small things like temperature changes, water, dust, or smells set off sneezing. How do I figure out if surgery is really needed or if pranayama could help? Is the DNS causing allergic symptoms or is the allergy making DNS worse? Can this be diagnosed precisely, or is trial and error the only way?

septoplasty is advised.
