I've recently had earwax removed, but since then, I've been feeling a lot of pressure and fullness, especially in my right ear. It feels like I need to put my finger in there and stretch it to get some relief. It's like there's an itch or a constant urge to wiggle the inside of my ear as if it's swollen. My hearing has definitely improved after the wax removal, but this pressure is bothering me, mostly in the right ear and occasionally in the left. I've been using Ciplox ear drops for about a week now. Is this normal? Should I be taking any precautions or consider any other treatment? I'm getting a bit worried about it. Would appreciate your advice.

I've been dealing with nasal congestion for about a year now, and it's been really bothersome. When I try to do alom vilom, I notice my nostrils feel blocked and it's hard to breathe properly. Plus, I've been experiencing some inflammation around the edges of my throat whenever I swallow. I consulted my doctor and tried some medications like Azeflo nasal spray, Montfair fx, and Sompraz D, but I haven't felt any significant relief. What else can I do or try to finally get some relief from these symptoms?

Continue same treatment.

I've been experiencing some strange sensations in my ear, like occasional sounds and this feeling like something's stuck inside. It's really unsettling, and I'm not sure what to make of it. Could you shed some light on what might be happening?

Consult an ENT specialist to rule out underlying conditions. Explore sound therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and relaxation techniques to manage symptoms. Tinnitus Retraining Therapy (TRT) can help your brain habituate to tinnitus. Lifestyle changes, such as avoiding loud noises and managing stress, can also help. While there's no cure, these strategies can alleviate symptoms.
