Patient's Query

How can I stop snoring at night permanently

Ent Surgery

Answered by Dr. Babita Goel

Among the leading causes of this are nasal congestion, obesity, alcoholic drinks, and sleeping posture. Should you want to cut down or completely get rid of this, think of lifestyle changes like controlling your weight, sleeping on your side, and not drinking alcohol before bedtime. Besides, using nose strips or humidifiers may help. If none of these strategies give you satisfaction, it would reinforce the importance of professional help to discover the underlying health issues and customized treatments.

I am a 27-year-old female and I have dry throat and Malaria for 3 weeks. I've used malaria drugs and antibiotics but the dryness is severe I don't know what to do next.

Female | 27

Dry throat is a condition that can be caused by several factors such as dehydration, infections, or even side effects of medications. You should be glad to know that your proactive approach has already been able to help you. To alleviate your dry throat try drinking more water, using humidifiers, and sucking on lozenges. If still the dryness persists, think of going back to your doctor for further assessment.

Ears are block, hurts very little, hearing like mini beats in my right ear, no medications taken

Male | 18

It sounds like you may be experiencing a mild blockage in your ear, potentially caused by earwax buildup, sinus issues, or changes in pressure. The sensation of rhythmic sounds could be linked to fluid movement or minor changes in your ear's function. Staying hydrated and gently yawning or swallowing may help relieve discomfort. However, to ensure a proper assessment and appropriate treatment, I recommend consulting a ENT specialist. They can provide a thorough examination and tailored advice.

I have been experiencing throat pain on my left side since few weeks … I have tachycardia I am on beta blockers , my doctor said for a ultrasound of neck in which level 3 10 into 6 mm benign nodes with maintained fatty hilum . But since few weeks I have pain and I also feel something is stuck and I have ear pain sometimes with toothache

Female | 22

The possible cause of pain in your throat and the feeling of an obstruction in your neck might lie in benign nodes. Once in a while, these nodes can problematically press on a nerve and cause pain. Apart from that, they might also be the culprits of earache and toothache. Therefore, you must schedule an appointment with an ENT specialist to undergo the necessary diagnostic programs.

Hello I’ve been having some hissing in one ear

Male | 23

If you hear a hissing noise in one ear, you may have tinnitus. It is a condition where you hear sounds like ringing, buzzing, or hissing without any outside noise making the sound. Tinnitus can happen for a few reasons. Very loud sounds can cause it. An ear infection might too. Or if you are very stressed, tinnitus can start. Try to avoid loud places and sounds. Find ways to feel calm and relaxed. But you should also go see an ENT specialist. They can check your ears and help figure out the best way to make the hissing stop.

Is this enlarged turbinate and if so what caused it and could it go away on its own? I can’t breathe through my nose for the past two days only. Was completely normal prior to that and I was able to breathe through my nose with my mouth completely closed. Plz help

Female | 25

It sounds like you may be experiencing nasal congestion, which can occur due to factors like allergies, a respiratory infection, or environmental irritants. Swelling in the nasal passages can temporarily hinder airflow, making breathing through your nose difficult. In many cases, this condition improves on its own within a few days as inflammation subsides. To alleviate symptoms, consider using saline nasal sprays or a humidifier. Drinking plenty of fluids can also help. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, I recommend consulting a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation and personalized treatment.

I'm a 21 year old female experiencing serious pain around the ear-neck region and I'm to prepare for a test tomorrow but I can't even study due to the pains

Female | 21

It might be helpful to know that the pain you feel in the ear and neck might have been caused by an infection in the ear or neck muscles that are too tight. Additionally, pain gets even worse when a person is stressed sometimes. Try to take some time off your studies and relax, use a warm cloth or over-the-counter painkillers may relieve this pain. Ensure you get enough sleep too. If this continue, please consult an ENT specialist.

You might have an inflamed lymph node or possibly a salivary gland issue. Since the pain increases with chewing and swallowing, it's important to visit an ENT specialist. They can give a proper diagnosis and suggest the best treatment. Self-medication can be risky, so please consult a doctor for the right guidance.

Female | 28

It sounds like you're experiencing throat pain and cough, which can often stem from viral infections or irritants. Since you have no fever or runny nose, this may not be a serious concern. You can continue using throat lozenges and gargling warm salt water for comfort. Dolo 650, which contains paracetamol, can help relieve pain; just ensure you follow dosage instructions. However, if your symptoms persist or worsen, I recommend consulting a physician for tailored advice.

You have a peritonsillar abscess problem based on your statement. The condition occurs when an infection causes pus formation in the vicinity of your tonsils. You can experience some symptoms such as a bright and hard lump next to your tonsils, strong pain during the swallowing or talking process, and a cold.

My grandfather age is 69 before 4 months he had second brain stroke now he has cough in his throat which not come out from his mouth so please doctor how to remove cough from throat

Male | 68

Your grandfather is likely experiencing throat congestion, which is common among stroke people. This could be caused by the fact that after a stroke, a person may have difficulty swallowing. When we swallow, the cough should come out of the mouth. Be sure to hydrate him by drinking lots of fluids. A speech therapist who can teach exercises to improve swallowing and coughing should be seen. Apart from that, he will also be able to make the cough from his throat disappear.

मुझे नाक मैं प्रोब्लम है मेरा नाक अंदर से बंद है उसमे फोड़ा जैसा कुछ है

Male | 17

Your stuffy nose and lump point to an infection. Viruses, and bacteria, get in your nose, leading to these symptoms. Pain or swelling could accompany it too. Stay hydrated, get some rest, and use saline spray - this might help clear things up. But if it sticks around, you may need to talk to an ENT specialist.

Hello doctor, so in 2022 I was diagnosed with typhoid in March. It was a 15-day treatment course. I made a full recovery in 1 month. Then, in July, I found 2 lymph nodes in my neck (level Il & IV), each less than 1cm. They were movable. The FNAC result was left cervical small swelling, reactive lymphoid hyperplasia. The lower one shrank a bit with meds, but today I noticed both nodes are still there and movable, just like 2 years ago. Do l need to get it checked again or is it normal?

Female | 24

Lymph nodes are small defenders in your body that help fight infections. Sometimes, they stay a little swollen even after the infection is gone. In your case, the nodes are small and movable, which is a positive sign. Since they haven’t changed in size over the past two years and aren’t causing any issues, it’s likely just your body’s way of managing past infections. However, it’s a good idea to keep an eye on them. If they grow, become painful, or new symptoms appear, it's best to get them checked again for peace of mind.
