My 13-year-old daughter has been having these blood clots coming out of her nose and she's even coughing them up too. They vary in size from a quarter to bigger than her hand. She had her nose cauterized about a month ago, but it's not helping. She's had this issue before, but it usually stopped within a week after the procedure. This time she's never had clots that she's coughed up. What's going on here and what should we do?

View allMy daughter has been breathing through her mouth and the x-ray showed enlarged adenoids. The doctors recommended surgery but we're wondering if homeopathy could help instead. Is it possible to treat this without surgery?
Treatment depends on how severe the condition is. If your child's enlarged adenoids aren't infected, the doctor may not recommend surgery. Instead, the doctor may choose to simply wait and see if the adenoids shrink on their own as your child gets older.

I've been dealing with sinusitis, and after a CT scan about five months ago, it seemed like things were getting better. Most of the symptoms went away once I took antibiotics and used nasal spray. But now I still get this post-nasal drip at night and then in the morning there's mucus in my throat. I don't have a cough or anything like that. Does this mean my sinusitis isn't totally gone? Could this post-nasal drip last forever unless I have surgery? And is surgery necessary if it's not really messing with my daily life?
Your sinusitis seems to be largely healed, but post-nasal drip is a common residual symptom that doesnt necessarily mean the condition is unresolved. It is not lifelong for most people, and surgery is not needed unless the problem is much more severe. You can manage the post-nasal drip with home remedies and over-the-counter treatments, and surgery is not a requirement if your symptoms are not significantly affecting your daily life.

I'm really worried about this situation with my nose. I recently saw an ENT doctor who did a full face x-ray and said that the bone on one side of my nostril is bent, which is blocking a bit of the airway and leaving very little space to breathe on that side. He gave me some medicine for 10 days, but I'm unsure if this will actually help in straightening the bone or if surgery might be necessary. I've been feeling really weak and I think it's because I'm not getting enough oxygen. What should I do?
Thats DNS nad needs surgical correction based on severity, follow your doctors advice.
