I've had a ranula mucocele under my tongue for the past 4 months it keeps bursting and filling up again. Is there any medicine or permanent cure for this? I'm wondering if homeopathy can treat it since allopathy only suggests surgery as the option.

Ranula mucoceles often require surgery for permanent cure; homeopathy has limited evidence for success and may not prevent recurrence.

View allI've been waking up with my right ear blocked every morning for the last 45 days, but it seems to clear up for the rest of the day. It feels similar to when your ears get blocked on an airplane. A little jaw movement sometimes helps a bit. I'm starting to worry if it could be something serious. Any ideas about what's going on with my ear?

I'm dealing with a deviated nasal septum, and it's been bothering me a lot. I really want to go for septoplasty surgery, but I'm super anxious about the idea of using packing because I just can't breathe through my mouth. I'm based in Delhi. Is there any surgeon here who could help with a packing-free procedure? I'm really looking for advice or suggestions on how to proceed.
