My brother recently got a CT scan for his sinus problem and ear hole issue, and the doctor is recommending surgery. Is there any way to treat this without going under the knife? Also, any idea what the surgery might cost?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It's understandable to want to explore all treatment options before considering surgery. For sinus issues and ear hole problems, non-surgical approaches can be effective in some cases. The cost of surgery can vary significantly, but generally, expect sinus surgery to range from Rs. 45,000 to Rs. 70,000 in India. Ear hole problems like tympanic membrane perforations might require tympanoplasty surgery, which can range from Rs. 30,000 to over Rs. 1 lakh, depending on the procedure and hospital

View allMy 3-year-old has frequent swelling and infections in the neck area from adenoid issues, along with constant high fever and runny nose. The doctor recommended surgery to remove the adenoids, but we're hesitant because of his age. Are there other options we can try first?
Yes, there are often alternative approaches to address adenoid issues in young children before considering surgery. Instead of immediate removal, your doctor might recommend a course of antibiotics to address any bacterial infections, along with nasal sprays to reduce swelling. If the adenoids are not causing significant breathing difficulties or infections, they can be monitored to see if they shrink naturally as the child grows older

While homeopathic remedies may offer a complementary approach for nasal polyps, it's crucial to understand that they are not a substitute for conventional medical treatment. If you are experiencing complete nasal blockage and difficulty breathing, seeking a medical consultation is vital.
