I've been having this weird needle-like pain on the left side of my throat that kind of spreads to my left ear. It doesn't feel like a regular sore throat; it's barely noticeable, but it's there, and it's really freaking me out. I suffer from severe anxiety, and I'm just super worried it could be throat cancer. What do you think could be going on?

My daughter has been breathing through her mouth and the x-ray showed enlarged adenoids. The doctors recommended surgery but we're wondering if homeopathy could help instead. Is it possible to treat this without surgery?

Treatment depends on how severe the condition is. If your child's enlarged adenoids aren't infected, the doctor may not recommend surgery. Instead, the doctor may choose to simply wait and see if the adenoids shrink on their own as your child gets older.

I've been dealing with a deviated septum where my right nostril is almost completely blocked and I can only breathe through the left side. Lately, my snoring has gotten really bad is surgery the only option or are there other ways to manage this?

While surgery (septoplasty) is often necessary to correct a deviated septum and improve breathing, it's not always the first or only option. If your symptoms are manageable, medications like decongestants, antihistamines, and nasal steroid sprays can be used to alleviate nasal congestion and inflammation. If your snoring is also a problem, lifestyle changes and certain devices can help reduce snoring. If symptoms worsen or are persistent, then surgery may be considered.
