My left ear has completely lost hearing and the doctor said the nerves are dead. Is there any medicine that can help or are there hearing devices that can be surgically implanted to restore some hearing?

I'm waking up with a really weird sensation, like there's something rubbery or mucus-like stuck in my throat or behind my voice box. I've had post-nasal drip before and even saw an ENT specialist about it. I don't have any allergies. I had a CT scan a couple of months ago, and it showed minimal mucosal thickening in my right maxillary sinus. I also used a Netipot for about a week. Now, I'm dealing with some nasal obstruction. Could this obstruction be the reason for the rubbery mucus feeling?

I've been feeling under the weather with a fever and cold last week and, thankfully, that's all cleared up. But now I'm dealing with this really unpleasant musty smell coming from my nose. It's really bothering me, and I just want it to go away as soon as possible. Can you suggest what might be causing this and how I can get rid of it?

I've been dealing with this really painful and persistent issue where the inside of my right nostril is dried out and raw and it just won't heal. It's been ongoing for about 8 months now and I've even been to the ER twice. I've tried everything from antibiotics to all the natural remedies I could think of like humidifiers, ice, heat packs, vaseline, coconut oil, saline spray, pain medications, and even steam, but nothing seems to work. The pain is worse than anything I've experiencedeven worse than childbirth. I'm super worried. What else could be causing this problem?

That needs evaluation,visit NT doctor for the same also consume healthy balanced diet for better solution
