I've been using Waxonil ear drops because I thought it would help the earwax come out, but the wax just isn't coming out and now it feels like my ears are blocked. What could be happening, and what should I do next?

Yes, in most cases, the loosened ear wax should come out on its own after using Waxonil ear drops. Waxonil ear drops soften ear wax so it can run out naturally without harming the ear. so it will takes some time if your wax is so hard to become soft if after 3-4 days doesnt come consult ent surgeon for wax removal procedure

I've been dealing with severe headaches for months, and an ENT doctor diagnosed me with a mucosal polyp growth in my nose, recommending surgery. My sinuses hurt a lot, and sometimes there's discharge. I'm worried should I go for the surgery or are there other treatments?

I'm really struggling to understand what's going on with my preauricular sinus pit. I've had it since birth on my left ear and for years, it would drain and I'd have to use medications. It stopped leaking around 5 to 10 years ago, but I started dealing with swelling instead, and tried more meds. Then in 2017, it got infected and turned into an abscess, so I went through surgery for an incision and drainage. The surgeon said they removed the entire tract, but I'm still getting swelling that won't heal, even with meds. It's really confusing and frustrating. Given that this seems to be a rare issue, what steps should I take? Who's the best surgeon to reach out to about something like this?

A preauricular sinus, also known as a preauricular pit, cyst, or fissure, is a sinus tract that runs under the skin and starts with a small opening in front of the ear. It's a common congenital malformation that occurs when the ear develops abnormally early in gestation. You should consult a specialist ENT surgeon for confirmation of appropriate treatment if required
