View allMy 5-year-old has enlarged adenoids and keeps getting ear infections. The doctor mentioned surgery but I'm worried can medicines shrink adenoids or is surgery the only option? What are the risks if we delay surgery?
Mild to moderate adenoid issues might improve with nasal steroids and avoiding allergens. Persistent infections may require adenoidectomy.

My dad has had a swollen throat for two years, and his voice changed because of it. A few months ago, a CT scan showed swollen vocal cords on both sides. The doctor prescribed meds and suggested minor surgery, but he didn't go through with it. Two days ago, he woke up coughing blood what could be causing this and what should we do next?
Coughing up blood, especially in someone with a history of throat issues and swollen vocal cords, is a serious symptom that requires immediate medical attention. While the cause could be related to the existing vocal cord condition, it could also indicate a more serious problem, like a tear or infection in the throat or even a potentially dangerous condition like throat cancer. It is imperative to seek emergency medical care right away.

Can Ayurveda really cure sinus issues permanently or is surgery the only option left if treatments don't work? I've been struggling with recurring sinus problems and want to explore natural remedies before considering surgery. What are the best Ayurvedic treatments for chronic sinusitis?
Yes, sinusitis, or sinus infections, can often be treated and cured without surgery. Many cases resolve with home remedies, over-the-counter medications, and sometimes antibiotics if the infection is bacterial. Surgery is typically reserved for chronic or severe cases where non-surgical treatments have been ineffective
