I've been waking up with my right ear feeling blocked and kinda wet for the past three days. There's this ringing sound in that ear that sticks around all day, which is really starting to bug me. Could you help me figure out what's going on with it?

For dry sinusitis, consider:

Nasal moisturizers: Nasogel, Rhinocort Aqua, or Simply Saline

Humidifiers to add moisture to the air

Increase saline spray usage to 3-4 times a day

For swelling and congestion:

Consult an ENT specialist for a proper examination

Consider prescription medications like nasal corticosteroids

Otrivin can be used as needed, but follow usage guidelines

Maintain good nasal hygiene and consult your doctor for personalized guidance.

I've got a pleomorphic adenoma on my left parotid gland again since 2010. I recently went through Sonography, FNAC, and a CT Scan, and they all say it's still there. Everything else around it seems normal, thankfully. My doctors are advising me to go for a Parotidectomy. I'm feeling a bit unsure and worried about this. Could anyone offer some guidance on what I should consider before making a decision?

The most common treatment for a parotid gland adenoma is surgery to remove the tumor, a procedure called a parotidectomy
