I've been using Cipla ear drops to clear out ear wax because I noticed I can't hear so well from my right ear. I'm wondering if it's alright to continue using them, or should I really see a doctor about this?

My dad is 45 and has been having ear problems with mucus discharge every other day. We saw an ENT doctor who said both ears might need surgery. I'm not sure if surgery is really necessary or if medications could help instead. Also, if surgery is needed, does it have to be for both ears or just one? Can you check the reports I've attached and let me know what you think?

If both ears have chronic discharge and failed medical treatment, surgery like tympanoplasty may be needed; one or both ears can be treated depending on disease severity.

I've had swelling under my right jawline for the past 14 days, and it hurts when I eat. A scan showed a 7mm stone in the main duct where it comes out of the gland. The pain has stopped for the last 3 days, but I can still feel the lump. Is surgery the only option for this? If so, would it be done through the mouth or from outside the neck? Can I get sialendoscopy instead, and where's the nearest place to get it done in Amritsar?

A salivary gland stone is the likely culprit of your swollen jaw and pain when eating. While surgery is an option, sialendoscopy (a minimally invasive procedure) is often a first choice. It's best to seek a specialist's opinion on the best course of action
