Turbinoplasty doesn’t significantly alter nose width;surgeons preserve nasal structure and swelling subsides in weeks–months to maintain a natural shape.

Question

I'm kind of worried because I had a cold and in a rush, I accidentally put Iodex in my nose. I quickly realized it was a mistake and washed it out with soap and water, but then my nose started bleeding a bit. Is this a serious issue, or should I be okay since the bleeding stopped quickly?

Question

I'm really concerned because I used cotton buds to clean my ears, and now they feel blocked. I went to see a doctor, and instead of cleaning out the wax, they recommended a wax solvent. I've been using it for two days, but my ears still feel the same. Should I be worried about this, or is there something else I should be doing?

Question

I'm feeling like there's something stuck in my throat. It doesn't hurt, and I'm not having trouble swallowing, but it's just really uncomfortable. Any advice on what kind of test I should consider to figure out what's going on?
