My uvula is looking really red and I can see a lot of veins on it. There's also a small sore on the side. I don't have a fever, but it feels really dry and uncomfortable in the mornings. Should I be worried about this? What could be causing it?

View allI've been waking up with my right ear feeling blocked and kinda wet for the past three days. There's this ringing sound in that ear that sticks around all day, which is really starting to bug me. Could you help me figure out what's going on with it?
For dry sinusitis, consider: - Nasal moisturizers: Nasogel, Rhinocort Aqua, or Simply Saline - Humidifiers to add moisture to the air - Increase saline spray usage to 3-4 times a day For swelling and congestion: - Consult an ENT specialist for a proper examination - Consider prescription medications like nasal corticosteroids - Otrivin can be used as needed, but follow usage guidelines Maintain good nasal hygiene and consult your doctor for personalized guidance.

I've had this throat infection for a few days now, and it's just not going away. It started with pain and soreness, and I took oflox200 for three days, which helped at first. But then, only a few days later, the symptoms came back even worse. This time, I've been on Azithromycin 250 mg, Ofloxacin, Ornidazole, and Levocetirizine for three days, but the pain is still there. I did feel a little better on the first day, but the soreness and pain are back, especially when I swallow. Theres only one day of this course left, and I'm worried because theres no real improvement. Can you suggest another antibiotic that might actually work for me?
Krishna, considering your persistent throat infection symptoms despite completing two antibiotic courses, it's essential to revisit your diagnosis and treatment plan; consult an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist to rule out other underlying conditions, such as tonsillitis, strep throat, or a viral infection; they may prescribe alternative antibiotics like Amoxicillin-Clavulanate, Clindamycin, or Cefpodoxime, or order further tests like a throat culture or rapid strep test to guide treatment; in addition, maintain good hydration, gargle with salt water, and use throat lozenges to help soothe your throat

I've been dealing with a sore throat for three months, and it's really starting to get to me. I've tried a bunch of antibiotics and syrups, but nothing seems to work. I'm worried it might be something more serious since its not going away. Could you suggest what else I should try or what might be going on? I'm really looking for some advice here.
