View allI'm pretty worried because my mom just had an endoscopy and they found her left vocal cord isn't working right the report mentioned something about left side vocal cord paralysis. The doctors said there's no infection and no clear cause, calling it idiopathic. They've suggested a CT scan, but I'm really anxious about what might be causing this. Can you shed some light on what could lead to vocal cord paralysis like this?

My eardrum is retracted and now it's ballooned up. I'm a pilot and really worried will this heal on its own or do I need surgery? It's been bothering me a lot and I'm not sure what to expect.
Retracted eardrums can range from mild to severe. Some get better on their own, and some need treatment. It's important to visit a healthcare provider if you think you might have a retracted eardrum. In some cases, it can lead to conditions like ear infections and temporary or permanent hearing loss.

I'm experiencing pain on the left side of my throat, and it's really tough to swallow. There's also this annoying feeling like a lump's stuck in my throat. Any idea what might be going on?
Persistent swollen lymph nodes can be concerning. Given the FNAC result shows reactive lymph nodes, it's likely a benign condition. Consider the following steps: - Consult a hematologist or an oncologist for a second opinion. - Rule out underlying conditions like tuberculosis, sarcoidosis, or autoimmune disorders. - Imaging tests like ultrasound or CT scans may help identify the cause. - Excisional biopsy might be necessary if the node persists. Don't hesitate to seek a specialist's opinion for further guidance.
