What is sinus and what happens when someone has it? I keep getting colds from going out in cold air or sitting under AC could this be sinus? If I get sinus surgery, will it completely go away? Does that mean I won't catch colds as easily from cold air or AC, or will I still get them like a normal person?

My mom has a hole in her eardrum and it's causing a lot of issues. The ENT doctor recommended surgery but I'm wondering if there's any way to heal a ruptured eardrum without going through surgery

Yes, many ruptured eardrums heal on their own without surgery. If the hole is small, it may heal within a few weeks. Even if it doesn't heal on its own, there are other options like patching or ear drop therapy before considering surgery.
