I'm really concerned about this polypoidal mucosal thickening in my left maxillary sinus that showed up on my MRI scan. I've already tried antibiotics and antihistamines for a month, but they didn't help. I'm worried and wondering what other treatments or options might be available. Could you advise on what else I can do to address this issue?

So, a doctor pulled on my larynx about a month ago, and ever since, I've been a bit worried if that caused any kind of trauma. I didn't notice any physical symptoms right after, but a few days later, I started feeling some discomfort inside my neck. I'm also wondering if this clicking sensation I've been feeling was always there or if I'm just more aware of it now. When I turn my head to the right or left, there's this silent clicking on the right side of my larynx. Could this be something I should be concerned about?

It is possible that the manipulation of your larynx by the doctor could have caused some trauma or irritation. The clicking sensation you are feeling when turning your head could be related to this. I recommend taking an over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medication like ibuprofen (e.g. Advil) to help reduce any inflammation and discomfort. Additionally, you can try using a warm compress on your neck to help relax the muscles. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it would be advisable to follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I'm dealing with a blocked ear and tried using soliwax for four days. Instead of getting better, it feels like it's more blocked. How can I get the wax out? Any advice would be really appreciated.

It seems like the earwax is impacted and not coming out with the use of Soliwax. You can try using Debrox ear drops to soften the wax. Put 5 to 10 drops in the affected ear and keep your head tilted for 5 minutes to let the drops penetrate. You can then rinse your ear gently with warm water using a bulb syringe to help remove the softened wax. If the blockage persists, please consult an ENT specialist for further evaluation and treatment.

I've been noticing these bumps in my throat and shared some pictures where they're circled. These bumps keep changing in size, and I've also got some middle ear effusion issues with my Eustachian tube. Sometimes, I feel a sore and burning sensation just on the right side, in both my throat and ear, which is the same side as the bump. I'm really starting to wonder if this is something normal or if I should be concerned about it. Any thoughts?
