I've had a maxillary sinus issue for about 3 years now, and it seems to be getting worse. It started when a doctor gave me some meds, but I only took them for a week and stopped. Recently, I've been dealing with a lot of itching all over my body, especially bad when I get my legs waxed. It's been going on for the last month, and along with this itching, my sinus issues like coughing have also been acting up more frequently. I've started taking steam to relieve it a bit, but I'm wondering what I should do for a proper cure. Should I get my sinus condition checked out to see what's going on, or should I see a doctor for some advice? Any suggestions would be really helpful.

I'm hearing this strange sound, like breathing, coming from my left ear. I tried holding my breath, but the sound didn't stop. What could this be? Should I be worried?

Hearing your breathing in your ear can be caused by a condition called patulous Eustachian tube dysfunction so consult ent surgeon for the same

I've been dealing with this fever, cough, and cold situation, and while I've started taking meds, my sore throat just won't go away. I had some cucumber and tomato raita last night, and I'm worried if they might be making my throat worse. Could those foods be affecting my recovery?

Eating cucumber and dahi (yogurt) is unlikely to cause or worsen a sore throat; in fact, yogurt has anti-inflammatory properties and can help soothe a sore throat; however, the acidity in tomatoes might slightly irritate the throat, but this is usually temporary and mild; it's more likely that your sore throat persists due to the underlying viral or bacterial infection, and it may take some time to fully recover, so continue with your medicatio
