I've had this throat ulcer for three days now and I'm on medication for it, with tablets like olise, cipt, cetgo, and zincoplex. I'm just not sure how long it's going to take for the ulcers to heal. Plus, I'm struggling to speak properly now, and even when I try to shout, my voice is really faint. Should I be worried about my voice, or is this just a normal part of having a throat problem like mine? Is my treatment moving in the right direction?

View allI can clearly see and feel a yellow polyp-like substance when I look in the mirror or insert my finger into my nostril. A doctor mentioned polyps back in 2018 and said I might need surgery, but I never got it done. Now I can't exhale properly through that nostril, and when I try to inhale forcefully, it feels like something is vibrating near the area. Is surgery the only option for polyps, or can medication help shrink them?
Surgery is advised to the patient,also ent opinion is advised and the surgery is called polypectomy.

I've been told I have nasal polyps in my right nostril. I went to an ENT and they said I needed a CT scan, which I did. After reviewing the scan, the doc said I should have surgery right away and didn't even suggest any medication first. It feels a bit suspicious to me. From what I've found online, these polyps seem pretty common. I'm just wondering if there are medicines or home remedies I could try before jumping into surgery. What do you think?
No surgical excision is the treatment of choice for nasal polyps,trust your doctor and follow their advice.

My son has an adenoids issue and the doctor suggested surgery, but we're really hesitant about going that route. Is there any other alternative treatment or option available for this that doesn't involve surgery?
You can opt for conservative management as well but getting operated and removed fas it is the solution for it.
