I've got really tough ear wax and it's making it hard to hear from one of my ears. I gave Cipla ear drops a shot, but they didn't work. Any ideas on how I can get rid of it?

I've had this cold and cough going on since last Thursday, and my doctor put me on Azitab 500 for five days. I took a Covid test on Monday, and thankfully it came back negative. But now, since Tuesday, I can't smell or taste anything properly. It's frustrating because all I can taste is this constant sour flavor. Do you think I should get tested for Covid again?

Patient is advised to continue tab azitab 500mg for 5 days.

I'm struggling with a really bad cough because of what I think is post-nasal drip from allergies, and I'm not sure who to see. Should I go to an ENT specialist or is a pulmonologist better for something like this? I'm just trying to figure out the best route for treatment.

I just got my NCCT scan results for the PNS area, and I'm kinda worried. It says there's mucosal thickening in the sphenoid sinus and along the walls of my bilateral maxillary sinuses. Also, the posterior air cells of my bilateral ethmoidal sinuses are affected, and the bilateral ostiomeatal units are compromised due to mucosal thickening at the hiatus semilunaris. Should I be concerned about this?

This is a condition called sinusitis,no need to worry just follow your doctors advice ,avoid cool foods and cold weathers there is nothing to worry.
