my ct scan shows a deviated nasal septum to the left with left side concavity and hypertrophy of the right inferior nasal turbinate - can this be treated with homeopathy or would surgery be necessary?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A deviated septum and turbinate hypertrophy, as shown in your CT scan, are often best addressed with surgical interventions, but homeopathic treatments might be considered for symptom management. Surgery (septoplasty and turbinate reduction) is necessary to physically correct the septum and turbinate size, while homeopathic treatments might provide relief from related symptoms.

View allI'm dealing with post nasal drip and allergies for the last couple of months and things got worse when I flew recently. During landing, I felt this terrible pain in my ears like they might burst. The ear pain faded by the next day, but now I'm having trouble with a pain in the right side of my Adam's apple when I swallow. There aren't any other symptoms. What could be causing this, and how can I fix it?

I'm dealing with this persistent white, thick mucus in my throat, and I need to clear it often, but I don't have a runny nose. Its kinda annoying, and on top of that, I have some gastric issues. Could these things be connected, or what might be going on? It's been worrying me a bit.
The persistent white thick mucus in your throat, accompanied by the need to clear your throat frequently, and gastric issues, may indicate gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), where stomach acid flows up into the throat, causing irritation and mucus production, so consider consulting a gastroenterologist or ENT specialist to discuss treatment options, such as antacids, proton pump inhibitors, or lifestyle changes like dietary modifications and elevated head positioning during sleep.
