Question 1

I've been dealing with constant headaches and facial pain for years. My PNS CT report shows mild polypoidal mucosal thickening in both maxillary sinuses and a Haller cell that's blocking the maxillary antral infundibuli. Both my inferior nasal turbinates are thickened too. I've tried so many medications and nasal sprays but nothing helps. Should I consider sinus surgery for this? And do you know roughly how much sinus surgery costs?

Accepted Answer

endoscopic surgery is advised to the patient.

Question 2

I'm really concerned about my almost 6-year-old daughter. She's been struggling with a constant cough and cold, and she was doing well for a while on montair lc and some sprays, but now with the weather changes over the last few months, she's caught a cold multiple times and needed antibiotics almost every month. We've been using seroflo and otrivin sprays regularly, but she still has blocked nose and snores at night. Her weight is normal, and she's active otherwise, but our doctor mentioned her adenoids are at grade 4 and suggested surgery. We did a CT scan too. I'm aware she might improve once the weather gets better, but I'm worried about keeping her from catching more colds and infections until then. Should I consider surgery, or is it okay to wait? I've tried homeopathy for a few weeks, but there's no improvement, and it gives her stomach pains. Im really hoping to avoid the surgery route. Is there a chance her adenoids might shrink on their own, or is surgery the only way forward? Any advice would be really appreciated.

I'm dealing with a sore throat and a persistent cough, and it's making it really hard for me to talk properly. Could it be that my voice box is infected? Im worried and would love some advice on what I can do to feel better.
