I've been having trouble breathing through my left nostril and visited an ENT in Hyderabad who said there's extra bone growth in my nose causing the issue. They recommended surgery but I'm a bit unsure - could you suggest any other options or advice for this problem?

If you're hesitant about surgery for a deviated nasal septum, consider consulting with another ENT doctor for a second opinion. While surgery is often the solution for a deviated septum, there are other options like medication to manage symptoms and improve airflow

I'm really wondering if having my tonsils taken out will weaken my immunity or if there are any other side effects I should know about after the surgery. Any insights?
Removing tonsils does not significantly reduce immunity. In fact, the tonsils are part of the body's immune system, but their removal typically does not lead to a noticeable decrease in overall immunity. However, after surgery, some common side effects may include temporary pain, swelling, and difficulty swallowing. These symptoms can usually be managed with pain medication and rest.
