What precautions should I take after an eardrum surgery and how long should I avoid washing my hair to prevent water from entering the ear
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
After eardrum surgery, it's crucial to keep the ear dry and avoid activities that could put pressure on the ear. Generally, you should avoid washing your hair or showering for at least a week after surgery and for up to 6 weeks, you should prevent water from entering the operated ear. To do this, you can use a cotton ball coated with Vaseline to form a barrier before showering or washing your hair

View allI'm 19 and I've been masturbating every day, sometimes more than once. I've noticed that I've had a nosebleed a couple of times after doing it, and both times it was cold outside. Do you think there's any link between my frequent masturbation and these nosebleeds?
Your nosebleeds are likely more related to the cold, dry weather than to masturbation itself. However, if you notice a consistent pattern where masturbation seems to coincide with the nosebleeds, consider adjusting your environment (like using a humidifier) and monitoring your overall habits to ensure you're not causing irritation. If the nosebleeds continue or worsen, it might be a good idea to consult a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying conditions and get personalized advice.

I'm really worried because for the past three months, I've had this constant excess mucus in my throat. I feel like I need to clear my throat all the time, and sometimes it even gets sore or I'll have a cough with this sticky mucus. It's frustrating because my throat occasionally turns red too. I'm trying to understand what's going on, but I'm completely stumped. What could be causing this? Is there something specific I should be looking out for or trying to manage it?
That could be due to allergy, identify the triggering factor and avoid it, maintain healthy lifestyle.
