Ive been feeling this sharp sensation on the right side of my neck whenever I drink water. It started with cold water, but now it happens with regular water too. It's been a couple of days since this started. Any idea what could be causing this?

It sounds like you may be experiencing throat pain or sensitivity. This could be due to various reasons such as throat infection, muscle strain, or even acid reflux. I recommend taking a pain reliever like acetaminophen (e.g. Tylenol) as needed for the discomfort. Additionally, you can try using a throat lozenge or gargling with warm salt water to soothe the irritation. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it would be best to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I've been having this issue where my left ear feels blocked every morning, and I can only hear faintly until it gradually clears up throughout the day. It's been happening for about 20-25 days now. Do you have any suggestions for wax removal drops that could help?
You can try using Debrox earwax removal drops. Use 5-10 drops in the affected ear, and keep your head tilted for 5 minutes to allow the drops to work. You can do this twice a day for up to 4 days to help soften and remove the earwax. If the symptoms persist, please consult an ENT specialist for further evaluation.

I had COVID last year and for the past six months, I've been dealing with constant nasal blockage because my turbinates are swollen, as confirmed by my ENT. I've tried all the medications the doctor suggested, but nothing has worked. Right now, I'm just using saline drops to manage the blockage. Is surgery the only option left for swollen turbinates, or could allergy shots help? Also, does turbinate surgery increase the risk of empty nose syndrome?
Swollen turbinates causing nasal blockage can be treated with medications like nasal sprays and antihistamines, and allergy shots may also be helpful, but surgery is sometimes necessary. Turbinate surgery carries a risk of "empty nose syndrome" (ENS), especially if too much tissue is removed
