If your nose feels bent or the bone seems crooked, it could be a deviated septum or a broken nose, and straightening it without surgery is unlikely. If it's a deviated septum, surgery (septoplasty) may be needed, and if it's a broken nose, it requires immediate medical attention, including the possibility of surgical repair.

I'm really concerned because my doctor prescribed Vitaresp FX 180 and OtocinO drops for my ear infection. He mentioned something about a minor allergy and fungal infection in both ears. I'm curious if Vitaresp FX 180 is actually meant for ear infections because I couldn't find any information about it online. Could you help me understand if this is the right medication?
