Question 2

I'm dealing with a blocked ear and tried using soliwax for four days. Instead of getting better, it feels like it's more blocked. How can I get the wax out? Any advice would be really appreciated.

Accepted Answer

It seems like the earwax is impacted and not coming out with the use of Soliwax. You can try using Debrox ear drops to soften the wax. Put 5 to 10 drops in the affected ear and keep your head tilted for 5 minutes to let the drops penetrate. You can then rinse your ear gently with warm water using a bulb syringe to help remove the softened wax. If the blockage persists, please consult an ENT specialist for further evaluation and treatment.

Antibiotics such as Amoxicillin can be prescribed to help reduce the swelling and infection in your tonsils.

To help with the pain and inflammation, you can try using a throat anesthetic spray to numb the area. Additionally, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen (e.g. Advil) to reduce the pain and inflammation. Gargling with warm salt water can also help soothe the throat. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it's best to consult with a doctor for further evaluation and treatment.

Question 6

I'm trying to figure out if it's safe to include curd or milk in the diet for someone with high triglycerides and high LDL cholesterol. Is there any benefit or should they be avoided?

Accepted Answer

Azithromycin (Azipro 500) is an antibiotic commonly used to treat bacterial infections, including throat infections. The usual dosage for adults with a sore throat is 500 mg once daily for 3 days. It is important to complete the full course as prescribed by the pharmacist. In addition to Azithromycin, you can also try over-the-counter remedies such as throat lozenges, warm salt water gargles, and staying hydrated to help alleviate your symptoms. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.
