I've been having this uncomfortable feeling in my throat, like there's something stuck in my larynx. I had a tonsillectomy about three years ago and I'm worried it might be related. On top of that, I'm experiencing some breathing problems. Could this all be connected? Would love to understand what's possibly going on.

I'm really worried because I've noticed a small amount of blood in my mouth. It happens when I clear my throat from water, and I see it mixed with saliva when I spit. Another time, I felt the same when I bent down to touch my feet while standing. I don't smoke or drink, and I'm a 29-year-old male, 5.7ft tall, weighing 67 kg. What could be causing this?

My ENT specialist diagnosed me with grade 4 tonsillitis and recommended surgery. I'm worried is surgery really necessary at my age? Could there be any long-term issues if I delay or avoid it?

A Grade 4 tonsillectomy recommendation by your ENT specialist, especially if it's for recurrent tonsillitis, is often a serious consideration. While surgery might seem daunting, delaying or avoiding it could lead to persistent or severe complications, and it's crucial to have an open discussion with your doctor about your concerns.

Ive been experiencing this annoying beep noise in my left ear for quite some time now. It gets more noticeable when Im in a quiet place and seems to disappear when theres a lot of noise around me. The doctor mentioned it might be tinnitus and gave me some meds, but they dont seem to be working. Could it really be tinnitus, or might it be something else?

Tinnitus is ringing sound in the ear...it may be due to impacted wax,fluid in the middle ear,acute or chronic otitis media, abnormally patent eustachian tube, minieres disease, otosclerosis,noise trauma, ototoxic drugs etc...it may be due to non otologic conditions like Anaemia, hypertension, hypotension, arteriosclerosis, hypoglycemia,epilepsy,migraine etc...so detailed clinical examination and evaluation needed Consult nearest ent specialist they will do the needful.
