My daughter, who's 5 now, has been having really frequent nosebleeds like at least twice a week ever since she was one year old. We've been using Botroclot, Neosporin ointment, and ice almost all the time. The bleeding is quite heavy and doesn't stop unless we use Botroclot. We've done blood tests for clotting, and everything came back normal. We were told that this might normalize as she grows older, but honestly, we're really worried about it. Could you suggest what might be going on or what else we could do?

managing environmental factors (like dryness), avoid irritants, and practice good nasal care. However, if the bleeding persists or worsens, its advisable to seek further consultation with an ENT specialist who can investigate any underlying causes and provide targeted treatment.

I'm really worried about my 3-year-old son. He recently had a BERA test, and the results showed normal waves in his right ear but absent waves in the left. What could this possibly mean? I'm scheduled to see his doctor next week, but the waiting is stressing me out and I'd love to get a second opinion in the meantime. Can you shed some light on this?

Bera test is used for hearing examination can determine the type of abnormality (conductive or sensorineural), severity (hearing threshold), and hearing loss (inner ear or other parts) of the child. and absence of waves can indicate neurological issues in the hearing pathway

I'm feeling a bit off because the right side of my throat has been heavy for about 8 to 10 days now. I haven't had a cough or sneezing, and there's no dry cough either. Also, I haven't traveled anywhere recently. I've tried gargling with hot salt water, but it hasn't really helped. It feels like there's a swelling or something stuck on that side, but when I look, there's no visible swelling from the outside. Could you please help me understand what's going on?
