I've been having this weird sensation like there's something stuck in my throat for the past few days. There's a sharp pain whenever I swallow, which is pretty uncomfortable even though I can still do everything else fine. I'm just wondering what could be causing this and if there's anything I can do to make it go away. Any advice?

you may be experiencing symptoms of esophageal irritation or inflammation. I recommend taking over-the-counter omeprazole. Additionally, you can try gargling with warm salt water and staying well-hydrated. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation.

View allI've been dealing with this strange sensation in my left ear. It all started a few days back when I had a cold and was blowing my nose a lot. At one point, after blowing my nose, it felt like some kind of air pressure built up in my left ear. Now that my cold is gone, it still feels like Im breathing through my left ear. Is this something I should be worried about? What could be causing this?

I'm a bit concerned because after getting the wax cleaned from my ear, it's now bleeding. The doctor mentioned there might be a little blood, but should I be worried if it's more than just a little? What should I do next?
After cleaning the wax, it is normal to experience some bleeding. You can apply an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin on the affected area to prevent infection and promote healing. You can also use a sterile gauze pad to apply gentle pressure on the area to help stop the bleeding. If the bleeding persists or worsens, please seek medical attention.

My daughter is 6 years old and she has adenoids. The main issue we're seeing is that she really snores a lot at night. To try and avoid surgery, someone mentioned that we could use metaspray and give her Montair LC at night. I'm really curious about whether that's a good idea or not. Any advice would be great!
Metaspray is a nasal spray containing Mometasone which is a steroid that helps reduce inflammation in the nasal passages. Montair LC is a combination medication containing Montelukast and Levocetirizine. Montelukast helps in reducing inflammation in the airways and Levocetirizine is an antihistamine that helps in relieving allergy symptoms. These medications can help reduce nasal congestion, inflammation, and snoring associated with adenoids. It is important to follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider.
