Sir,
Had a sinus Fess surgery for left sided Antro Nasal Polyp 10 years back. After 5 years the polyp recurred and treated with prednisoplone.
Now since last two weeks having heavy nasal drip, block, cough, throat pain, face pain etc.
Consulted ENT doctor did Endoscopy as attached.
He says I could have prescribed steroud nasal drops after initial surgery.
However, now given DEFZA 6, CLARBACT, MUCINAC, etc and to revert back with CT scan after 10 days.
Will i require surgery?
Thanks
My mother throat had white things look like ball it's comes and go but little pain in that area is this cancer or not please tell me i am sacred doctor
I have persistent swelling on one side of my face, mainly the cheek and under-eye area. The swelling becomes more noticeable during or after eating.
I previously underwent FESS and septoplasty, but the swelling has continued after surgery. I recently had an ultrasound, and the report says the duct was not visualized/not seen.
Could this be related to the parotid/salivary gland or salivary duct? What could cause swelling that increases while eating?
Which specialist should I consult—ENT/head & neck surgeon, oral & maxillofacial surgeon, or another specialist? What tests would be useful?
I can upload my ultrasound and previous CT reports if needed.
For the last 1 month, I have recurrent throat dryness and irritation with an urge to cough or clear my throat. Coughing gives temporary relief, but the irritation returns. During daytime it happens around 10–12 times, but at night after lying down it becomes much worse, sometimes every 5–10 minutes, making it difficult to sleep.
I have allergic rhinitis and regularly stay in an AC room (26°C) with a fan. My AC has not been serviced for a long time. I have also used Foracort 200 inhaler.
Could this be due to post-nasal drip/allergy, sinusitis, silent acid reflux/LPR, asthma, or dust/mold from the AC?
What tests may be needed to identify the root cause, and what treatment/medicine would be appropriate?
I have severe/tremendous throat pain, especially when swallowing food, water or saliva. I had a high fever of 102.6°F yesterday, but it has completely subsided today and I have no fever now. My throat looks very red and inflamed, with small red spots and a small white/yellow spot near the tonsil. I also have a bad taste/bad smell from my throat. My 3-year-old son currently has hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) and herpangina with mouth lesions and has not completely recovered. I have been in close/direct contact with him. Could this be a viral infection transmitted from him, or could it be bacterial tonsillitis/strep? Please advise whether I need a throat test, antibiotics, or specific treatment for the severe pain. I can swallow, but it is extremely painful.
