I've been having this weird sensation, like something's crawling in my right ear, but every time I look, I can't find anything. When I use earphones, it feels kinda hollow in that ear, and I've been getting these intense headaches sometimes too. The eye doctor mentioned it might be from dry eyes after my LASIK. Now, I'm feeling some slight pain in my right ear and a bit of numbness. What do you think could be going on, and should I be worried?

View allI'm really struggling with sinus issues and just wanted some advice. For the past couple of months, I've been having this pain on the left side of my forehead that goes down to my nose. There's also this yellowish, smelly discharge that keeps coming from the left side of my nose. I just had a CTPNS done and it showed moderate mucosal thickening in my left maxillary sinus, causing about 70 to 80% of air space to opacify, and it's reaching into the middle meatus through the maxillary ostium. There's also some moderate thickening in the bilateral ethmoid air cells and mild thickening in the bilateral frontal sphenoid sinuses. I've got bilateral concha bullosa with secondary mucosal thickening too. I've been on medication for the past 15 days things like Augmentin 625, Allegra M, Defza 6mg, Ezicas nasal spray, and Enzoflam. They help for a bit, but after 7 to 8 hours, the symptoms just come back. What do you suggest I do now?
Its essential to complete the prescribed medication course, as it can help reduce inflammation and infection and if youre not experiencing lasting relief after 2 weeks of consistent medication.If medications are not resolving the issue, consult an ENT specialist for further evaluation.

I'm dealing with Allergic Rhinitis Asthma and some level of Obstructive Sleep Apnea. I've been using NazomacAF nasal spray in both nostrils every couple of days. Since starting it, my nasal congestion has pretty much vanished and I'm not having any breathing issues. But I'm really curious if it's safe to use this spray long-term when I'm using it once every two days. Also, I haven't seen any improvement with my snoring since I began using it. What should I know about this?
Continue same treatment as advised by the physician.

My mom has moderate hearing loss in her left ear and sometimes hears abnormal sounds, but there's no pain. The doctor suggested surgery and did an HRCT of the temporal bone. I'm not sure if surgery is the only option right now are there any alternative treatments we should consider?
Yes, besides surgery, alternative treatments for moderate hearing loss and tinnitus include hearing aids, tinnitus retraining therapy, and potentially certain medications. The best approach depends on the cause of the hearing loss and tinnitus, as determined by the HRCT of the temporal bone and other diagnostic tests.
