My nose has been blocked for 3 years and it's really affecting my breathing. I can't take deep breaths properly and it's been like this for so long. How much does nose surgery cost and how many days will I need to stay in the hospital?

I'm really worried about my child who has adenoids. Do they absolutely need surgery, or are there any medications that could help shrink or cure them? I would appreciate any guidance you could offer.

I'm experiencing this ear pain in my right ear, specifically around the tragus area, and it only hurts when I touch it or sleep on that side. The doctor recommended Cetraxal online because of the COVID situation and mentioned it might be an ear infection. I've been using the medicine for a day, but there's no relief yet. I've had earwax issues a couple of times before, many years back. Could this be due to earwax again, or is it really an infection?

I've been feeling really dizzy since yesterday whenever I lie down or get up. It also happens when I shake my head. Should I see an ENT specialist for this, or would another specialist be better?

Your symptoms suggest benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), a common inner ear disorder; consider consulting an ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) specialist or a neurologist for a proper evaluation and treatment, which may include the Epley maneuver or other exercises to help alleviate the dizziness.
