How can I unblock my ears at home?
Earwax buildup often causes this. Hardened wax clogs the ear canal, making you feel full or hear less. Use over-the-counter ear drops to soften wax. Gently flush ears with warm water using a bulb syringe. If this doesn't work, see an ENT specialist for evaluation and treatment.

Why do I have persistent ear sounds and pain?
A buildup behind your eardrum might cause the noise. Your ear and jaw ache may relate to this otitis media (middle ear infection). Antibiotics aid, but seeing an ENT specialist for assessment and care is wise. They'll determine if fluid accumulates, resulting in the symptoms you describe.

What should I do for cough?
If you have been feeling like something is tickling or causing discomfort in your throat, it could be an irritation on your throat. This irritation is usually caused by a common cold, allergies, or food particles getting stuck in the back of the mouth and then traveling down into the esophagus. Other symptoms may include a dry cough without phlegm production; hoarseness (speaking with difficulty in voice due to swelling); or pain when swallowing. If any of them persists too long or worsens over time then visit an ENT specialist.

Is Sinus Surgery Necessary for Deformed Nose Bone?
Are headaches, stuffy nose, or breathing problems telling you that something may be wrong with your nose bone? If so, you could be suffering from a deviated septum that requires surgery to fix it. Sometimes fixing the bone can relieve symptoms. When none of these treatments help, doctors will recommend an operation on what is blocking your airway.

Should I be concerned about persistent nosebleeds?
Nosebleeds can happen because the air is dry or if you sneeze a lot. If you are spitting blood with a bleeding nose, it might be from the back of your nose. Sit straight up, pinch your nose, and breathe through your mouth. If it doesn’t stop, get help from an ENT specialist.

Why am I producing clear mucus for 6 months?
It is caused when the body is fighting off allergens, such as dust and pollen, in the nasal passages. This kind of disease is seasonal and it may become severe if not controlled. Employing saltwater nasal sprays, keeping away from various triggers like dust, and staying hydrated can reduce the production of the excreted mucus.

Why do I hear voices in one side of my head for three years?
It may sound like you're experiencing a symptom known as tinnitus, which manifests as the perception of ringing, buzzing, or whooshing sounds in the head, and can occur in one or both ears. Tinnitus can be related to factors such as age, exposure to loud noises, or ear infections. Coping strategies for tinnitus include reducing exposure to loud sounds, managing stress, and ensuring adequate sleep. However, since your symptoms involve hearing voices specifically on one side or both sides of your head, it's advisable to consult an ENT specialist for further evaluation and management.
