My doctor recommended sinus surgery costing around 30k but I'm wondering if laser treatment could be an option instead what's the average cost for that and would it work for my condition?

Laser sinus treatment, also known as Radiofrequency Turbinate Reduction (RTR) or Laser Turbinate Reduction, can be a viable alternative to sinus surgery for some individuals, and the average cost can range from Rs. 10,000 to Rs. 40,000. While laser treatment may be effective for certain conditions, it's essential to discuss your specific case with your doctor to determine if it's appropriate and if it will address your particular sinus issues

Question

I'm experiencing some discomfort when swallowing, particularly on the right side near my Adam's Apple. It's not a constant pain, but it sometimes feels like a lumpy soreness throughout the day, especially when I gulp. I have a moderate cough and notice I'm spitting more often. Last month, I had a cold and sore throat and was advised to take Azithral and ClavamXR by my GP. I've also stopped working out for about a month and it feels like I'm gaining weight. Could you offer some advice or insights into what's going on?

Question

I've been dealing with constant nose block and thick mucus that's causing ear blockage too. An ENT specialist recommended surgery for a deviated septum or extra bone growth in my nose, but I really want to avoid surgery if possible. Are there any effective non-surgical treatments that could help with this condition?

Question

I had sinus surgery back in 2011 for allergic rhinitis and sinusitis. These days I don't have the usual sneezing, cold, or post nasal drip but I keep getting this low-grade fever with body aches and a heavy feeling in my forehead. Could this still be sinus-related even though I don't have other symptoms? What treatment would work best and how long before I see results? Homeopathy didn't fully help last time but I'm hoping there's still a way to manage this.
