I'm really struggling with sinus issues and just wanted some advice. For the past couple of months, I've been having this pain on the left side of my forehead that goes down to my nose. There's also this yellowish, smelly discharge that keeps coming from the left side of my nose. I just had a CTPNS done and it showed moderate mucosal thickening in my left maxillary sinus, causing about 70 to 80% of air space to opacify, and it's reaching into the middle meatus through the maxillary ostium. There's also some moderate thickening in the bilateral ethmoid air cells and mild thickening in the bilateral frontal sphenoid sinuses. I've got bilateral concha bullosa with secondary mucosal thickening too. I've been on medication for the past 15 days things like Augmentin 625, Allegra M, Defza 6mg, Ezicas nasal spray, and Enzoflam. They help for a bit, but after 7 to 8 hours, the symptoms just come back. What do you suggest I do now?

Its essential to complete the prescribed medication course, as it can help reduce inflammation and infection and if youre not experiencing lasting relief after 2 weeks of consistent medication.If medications are not resolving the issue, consult an ENT specialist for further evaluation.

I've been dealing with tonsillitis and I've got these white patches in my throat. I've tried taking Novamax 500 for a couple of nights, but it doesn't seem to be helping much. Should I stop using it and try something else like Azithromycin Azithral 500 for the next three days? Or would Augmentin 625 Duo be a better option? I'm trying to figure out which one would work best for treating tonsillitis.

Fertisure M is a supplement designed to support male fertility, particularly sperm motility. However, individual results may vary, and the effectiveness of Fertisure M depends on several factors, including: 1. *Underlying causes of low motility*: If the low motility is due to an underlying medical condition, Fertisure M may not be enough to completely resolve the issue. 2. *Dosage and compliance*: Ensure your husband takes the supplement as directed by the doctor. 3. *Combination with other treatments*: Fertisure M might be prescribed in conjunction with other treatments or lifestyle changes. Typically, supplements like Fertisure M may take around 3-6 months to show noticeable improvements in sperm motility. However, this timeframe can vary significantly from person to person. *Monitoring progress*: Regular semen analysis tests (every 2-3 months) can help track changes in sperm motility. This will enable your husband's doctor to assess the effectiveness of Fertisure M and make any necessary adjustments to the treatment plan.
