I've got this white patch on my uvula, and it's been feeling like there's something stuck in my throat all the time. It doesn't burn, itch, or hurt, and I'm pretty sure it's not strep 'cause my throat and tonsils aren't bothering me. What could this be?

View allCan using nasal saline spray really help protect us from getting infected by black fungus? I'm curious about how this works and if it's something I should consider.
Nasal saline spray like Solespre can help in keeping the nasal passages moist and clear, which may potentially reduce the risk of fungal infections. However, it is important to note that nasal saline spray alone may not be sufficient to prevent black fungus infection. It is essential to maintain good hygiene practices and seek medical attention if any concerning symptoms arise.

I'm dealing with this constant itch and pain inside my ear, plus there's this ringing noise that just won't go away. It's been happening for about 23 days now. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?
Throat pain can be quite uncomfortable. Before providing a prescription, consider: - Staying hydrated with warm fluids like tea or broth - Gargling with salt water - Using a humidifier - Avoiding spicy or acidic foods For relief, you can try: - Pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen - Throat lozenges or sprays containing phenol or menthol However, for a personalized prescription and proper diagnosis, I strongly recommend consulting a doctor.

My 6-year-old daughter has had enlarged adenoids for the last 4 years, and we really want to avoid surgery. We've seen multiple doctors in Bangalore, but nothing has helped. She constantly has a runny nose and breathes through her mouth. We take extreme care she only eats homemade food, drinks warm water, avoids milk and curd, and can't even play outside or wash hands with normal tap water. Her immunity seems very weak, and she struggles with basic things like taking a head bath without staying indoors the whole day. It's heartbreaking to see her like this. Is there any way to improve her condition without surgery? How can we strengthen her immunity and help her live a normal life?
Adenoidecomy is advised to the patient.Ent opinion is adcised .
