So, I'm really worried about my cousin who's been dealing with mouth ulcers a lot. My family's regular doctor mentioned maybe seeing an ENT specialist, but I'm not quite sure if that's the right path. She's tried dietary supplements and a bunch of other stuff, but nothing seems to help. Now the ulcers just won't go away. Who do you think would be the right specialist for this?

I'm really worried because last night a fish bone got stuck in my throat, and I can still feel it on the left side below my tonsils. I tried using my finger to get it out, but it just made me vomit really badly and now my throat hurts even more when I swallow. I've also tried eating rice as a home remedy, but that didn't work. What can I do to relieve this pain and get the bone out?

I've noticed a lump in front of my left tragus, and it's painless even when I touch or press it. It also seems to be mobile. I'm not sure if I should be concerned or if there's any specific way I should manage it. Could it be something serious or is it likely harmless?

This lump could be a benign condition such as a sebaceous cyst or a lipoma. It is important to monitor the lump for any changes in size, shape, or symptoms. If the lump causes any discomfort or grows in size, it is recommended to consult a doctor for further evaluation. In case of infection or inflammation, antibiotics may be prescribed. If necessary, the lump can be surgically removed.

I've been having pain and occasional wetness in my left ear, and my doctor recommended surgery to close a hole. Is the surgery absolutely necessary or can this be treated with allopathy or homeopathy medicines? Also, I've noticed a slight hearing loss if I go through with the surgery, could the problem come back? What are the chances of success with the surgery?

A small ear hole can be managed with medication if dry and infection-free. If persistent wetness or hearing loss exists, surgery is advised. Recurrence is rare with proper post-op care.
