I've been feeling really dizzy since yesterday whenever I lie down or get up. It also happens when I shake my head. Should I see an ENT specialist for this, or would another specialist be better?

Your symptoms suggest benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), a common inner ear disorder; consider consulting an ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) specialist or a neurologist for a proper evaluation and treatment, which may include the Epley maneuver or other exercises to help alleviate the dizziness.

View allI'm really feeling under the weather with this throat pain. It's been tough dealing with a dry throat and I'm also having this fever that's got me shivering quite a bit. What's strange is that there's no cough along with these symptoms. Can you help me figure out what's going on or suggest what I should do? I'm just not sure how to handle this.
Throat pain, cold, fever, and chills with dry throat but no cough can be symptoms of a viral infection. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can take acetaminophen for fever and pain relief. Additionally, you can try lozenges like Strepsils for throat pain relief. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention.

I've been having some pain in my right ear ever since I accidentally slept with my earphones on all night. Could this have caused any damage, and what should I do about it?

I've been diagnosed with reactive lymphoid hyperplasia for the past couple of months. I'm really concerned and wondering if it's something that can be cured on its own, or if surgery might be necessary. Could you provide some insights on this?
Surgery (usually in the form of a biopsy or excision) may be considered if: The swelling persists for a long time without improvement or becomes very large. The doctor suspects there might be another cause (like lymphoma or another serious condition). The lymph nodes are causing other physical symptoms (such as difficulty swallowing, breathing, or other issues due to the pressure they cause).
