View allI've been dealing with dry sinusitis for a couple of months now and it's been really uncomfortable because there's no mucous forming at all in my nostril. I'm using Nasoclear saline spray and Otrivin only when its absolutely necessary. I've noticed there's some swelling in my left nasal wall, and a little bit on the right too. I'm feeling like I really need a good nasal moisturizer, but I'm not sure what treatment would be best to fix this. What should I do?
Ouch, that sounds painful! Swallowing warm food can cause: - Esophageal burns or scalds - Inflammation and irritation To alleviate the discomfort: - Avoid spicy, acidic, or hot foodsdrinks - Opt for soft, bland, and cool foods (e.g., yogurt, scrambled eggs) - Stay hydrated with lukewarm water - Consider over-the-counter antacids or pain relievers If the pain persists or worsens, consult a doctor for proper evaluation and guidance.

From the last month or so, I've been having a sore throat, and when I checked in the mirror, I could see that the right side of my palatoglossal arch is red and a bit swollen. There's also a small white spot behind it. Is this just an infection or could it be something more serious? Google mentioned soft palate cancer, and now I'm really worried. Could you give me some guidance on what's happening? I've attached a picture for reference.
That could be Pharyngitis no need to worry consume warm foods and visit ENT doctor for appropriate treatment.

I'm dealing with BPPV and it's been really tough. Every time I turn my head towards the left, it feels like the room is spinning and I lose my balance. I've seen two doctors about it. The first said there's no medication for this, but the second prescribed Valium 2 and Vertin 24 for a couple of weeks and suggested some tests. They also performed the Epley Maneuver and taught me how to do it at home. My schedule is pretty hectic since I work 23 days weekly, mostly overnight due to different time zones, and the doctor advised me not to stay up all night. I'm just really anxious about when this will get better because it's affecting my daily life and I'm worried about whether these medicines will help or if something more serious might happen.
BPPV can be uncomfortable and worrying, but with the right treatment (including the Epley Maneuver), most people recover fully. It may take some time, so try to be patient and follow your doctor's instructions. The medications you are taking are supportive in managing symptoms, but the physical therapy (Epley) is key to addressing the root cause. If the problem continues or worsens, dont hesitate to revisit your doctor for further advice.
