My 2.5-year-old son has adenoids and has been on montair LC and abymys nasal spray at night for 8 weeks. He's been sleeping peacefully without snoring or breathing issues since starting the treatment and is very active. The doctor suggested surgery if things don't improve after 2 months, but I really want to avoid that. What should I do?

Since your son is responding well to current treatment and is sleeping peacefully, focus on continuing that treatment and monitoring his progress. A follow-up with the doctor is crucial to discuss his continued improvement and explore all available options, including delaying surgery if possible, if symptoms are minimal, treatment may not be necessary.

My right nose is always blocked due to DNS and I catch coughs and colds easily. I do anulom vilom pranayama and eat healthy, avoiding cold foods. Would anushadbindu oil help improve my DNS issue? What's better between the two options? Is there any non-surgical way to recover from DNS?

septoplasty for DNS is advised to the patient if conservative treatment is ineffective.

I'm really concerned because I've been dealing with a sore throat that just won't go away. It's been hard to swallow and it feels like it's below the tonsils, around the throat wall under the palatopharyngeal arch. I can't usually see anything unless I look really closely. It's been a month now, and I'm getting pretty scared. What could this be?

Based on your description of a sore throat with mild swallowing difficulty located below the tonsils and below the palatopharyngeal arch, it may be due to a throat infection. I recommend taking an antibiotic like Amoxicillin (brand name: Amoxil) 500mg three times a day for 7-10 days to treat the infection. Additionally, you can use throat lozenges containing Benzocaine to help relieve the soreness. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation.
