So, this weird thing happens to me twice a year, and I'm kinda worried. Every time I catch a cold, after the first day, I just start salivating A LOT and it doesn't stop. It's like I'm drooling non-stop! I've tried different medications, but nothing seems to work. The drooling just does its thing and goes away after about 3-4 days. Is there something serious going on here? And if there are any meds that can help with this, that would be awesome.

a cold can cause excess salivation, also known as hypersalivation. This is because a cold can lead to nasal congestion, which can cause you to breathe through your mouth more. Breathing through your mouth can make it easier for saliva to escape. if excess salivation is due to cold then treat the cause

I've been experiencing this weird sensation in my left ear for what feels like forever, especially at night, and it's got me pretty freaked out. It almost feels like something is moving in there, and it's been going on for almost a year now. Any idea what this could be or what I should do about it?

How much does SMR and FESS surgery usually cost and do they often get done at the same time? I'm also worried about potential complications what should I be aware of before deciding on these procedures? Is it common to combine SMR with FESS, and what's the typical price range for both? I've heard there might be risks what are the most serious ones I should know about? I'm considering SMR and FESS but not sure about the costs or if they're usually performed together. Also, what kind of complications could happen after these surgeries? What's the average cost for SMR and FESS, and do surgeons typically do them together? I'm a bit nervous about possible side effects what are the big risks? Trying to figure out the expenses for SMR and FESS and whether they're often done in one go. Are there any major complications I should watch out for post-surgery?

Yes , if the symptoms of nasal blockage are due to allergy not due to DNS , you wil still feel nasal block after surgery .. It's your body's immune response towards allergens .. you should get tested for allegry . it can controlled but not cured.
