I'm really worried about my brother. He's been dealing with a nasal blockage for months now after recovering from Covid. He tested negative and was fine for a bit after vaccination, but now he can't breathe properly through his nose and has to breathe through his mouth, especially at night. It's affecting his sleep a lot. He quit smoking recently after a long habit, and his PFT results were okay, but he's still not feeling well. What could be causing this ongoing congestion?

View allIs using clove oil safe to treat an ear infection at home? My right ear keeps ringing, and it's really irritating. Sometimes a liquid comes out, and then the ringing stops, but it starts again after a while. This has been happening for a couple of days now. What should I do?
Using clove oil for ear infections at home is not recommended as it can potentially cause irritation and allergic reactions in the ear canal. It is important to consult a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and treatment. In the meantime, you can use over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen and keep the ear dry. If there is discharge from the ear, avoid putting anything inside the ear canal and seek medical attention promptly.

Are these nasal polyps or swollen turbinatesAttached are the pics of my right and left nostrils.What is the possible treatment of these except surgeryI have rhinitis allergy since last 8 months.Sneezingrunny noseblocked nose sometimes feeling blockage in throat too.
It's difficult to definitively diagnose whether your nasal issue is polyps or swollen turbinates without a visual examination. However, the symptoms you've described (sneezing, runny nose, blocked nose, and sometimes a blocked throat) are common in both conditions, particularly when associated with allergic rhinitis, which you've also mentioned. Treatment options beyond surgery for both nasal polyps and turbinate hypertrophy include medications and lifestyle changes

I'm a singer, and I've been having this issue with my left ear. Whenever I hit high notes, it feels clogged or like there's a bubble in it. It's super frustrating because I'm a soprano, and I really need to be able to hit those high notes without any problems. Could it be something serious, or is there a way to fix it?
