I have detected with Submandibular gland stone of arround 16 mm. Doctor suggested to operate the gland by external incision.
Is this surgery done under general anasthesia. How painful is the submandibular gland removal surgery. Will there be any pain immediately after the surgery once I will return in sense from anesthesia? If yes is there any option to eliminate this? I have phobia and fear of surgery.
I think i have nasal polyps and sinus issues. Since 5 months i am suffering from swallowing issues. I feel that food gets stuck in throat or i have to swallow hard or take some water to gulp it down. Below i am attaching my pns xray. Please let me know what i am suffering. I wanna eat again normally. This stuff has caused me lot of stress and anxiety. Even while shower i feel urge to swallow i dont know why.
Hello Doctor,
I have been experiencing symptoms suggestive of Meniere’s Disease, including episodes of vertigo, occasional hearing disturbance, and earlier I had some noise sensation in the ear.
Currently, most of my reports (MRI, EEG, VNG) are normal.
I would like your guidance regarding the best course of treatment.
Kindly advise on the next steps.
Thank you.

I have a history of earwax buildup. Recently, I had wax blockage in my left ear and used Clearwax ear drops. I have removed wax using ear buds and it came out and my hearing became normal.
Today, I felt irritation in my right ear and used an ear bud. Some wax came out, but I think the rest got pushed deeper. My hearing in the right ear is now reduced to around 30%.
I started using Clearwax drops again. There is no severe pain, dizziness, discharge, or fever. Should I continue the drops for a few more days, or do I need ENT wax removal? Is this anything serious??
