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've had two Tympanoplasty surgeries, one in 2011 that didn't work out and then another in 2014 after having sinus surgery and surgery for a deviated nasal septum. The doctor said back then that I shouldnt swim for the rest of my life because of the ear infections. Its been a few years now and I'm wondering if its still risky to swim or if things might have changed with my ear health?
It is important to follow the advice of your doctor after Tympanoplasty, especially if there have been complications such as infections in the past. Swimming can introduce water into the ear canal, which may increase the risk of infection or damage to the eardrum. To protect your ear health, it is advisable to avoid swimming or to use ear protection such as earplugs while swimming.

I've got these sore blister-like things at the back of my throat, and I'm kinda worried. My sister thinks it's strep throat, but someone else mentioned it might be related to something sexual, while another person just said they're blisters. I'm confused and a bit concerned. Could you help me figure out what might be going on?

I've had this throat ulcer for three days now and I'm on medication for it, with tablets like olise, cipt, cetgo, and zincoplex. I'm just not sure how long it's going to take for the ulcers to heal. Plus, I'm struggling to speak properly now, and even when I try to shout, my voice is really faint. Should I be worried about my voice, or is this just a normal part of having a throat problem like mine? Is my treatment moving in the right direction?
You are recieving right treatment no need to worry give some time rest your voice untill you recover consume warm foods,visit ENT doctor for evaluating further.
