Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I can understand your concern. Did your ENT (ear, nose, and throat) doctor say whether your eardrums were normal or congested? Was there any perforation? Do you have ear pain also, or do you just have a blocking sensation? What you are experiencing is eustachian tube dysfunction only. It would have happened due to exposure to cold. Did you recently have a history of swimming in a pool or something? Please help.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. Thank you for your query. I understand that you are experiencing a 50 percent loss of hearing, which is attributed to nerve inflammation. The treatment option of steroid injection into the ear is considered one of the most effective approaches. Steroid injections into the ear can help reduce inflammation and promote healing of the affected nerve.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I read your query and understand your concern. There is no need to worry. Since an endoscopy has already been done, we are sure that there is no anatomical or obstructive pathology in your aerodigestive tract. Since you have difficulty swallowing, I would like to advise certain tests to evaluate esophageal mobility disorders such as: 1.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. Please do not worry because I know you are apprehensive about your child's hearing. The drugs which cause hearing loss are called ototoxic drugs. Many of them affect the hair cells of your inner ear. Sofradex contains Framycetin, which is an aminoglycoside antibiotic.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. Thank you for your query. I understand your concern. According to the reports, you have a laryngeal mass with glottic to supraglottic extension, and you have already been tracheostomized. The histopathological report (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity) suggests evidence of invasive carcinoma.
Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. I went through your query and understood your concern. I have reviewed your laboratory reports (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity). The reports are normal except for a mild marginal increase in cholesterol levels, which is quite normal. So the nose bleeds that you are experiencing are called epistaxis.
Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. According to the pictures shared, I can see some white patches in the tonsilar fossa but it is not clear in the picture (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity).

Hello,Welcome to icliniq.com.I have reviewed your X-ray reports (attachments removed to protect the patient's identity). They show that there is a small undisplaced fracture of both nasal bones. The fracture segments are still in their anatomical position, but you need not worry as these fractures heal by themselves in three to four weeks. Make sure that you do not touch or manipulate your nasal dorsum unnecessarily.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I have reviewed the reports (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity), and I suggest it be a benign cyst, mostly a branchial cyst. These cysts are formed due to remnants during the intraembryonic period; the branchial arches form various parts of the neck, and some epithelium left behind forms these cysts. Since it is just a cyst and not a sinus, and going by your father's age and previous PTCA (percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty), I would suggest you consider palliative treatment, avoiding surgery. Since there is swelling in the vicinity of the parotid, there is a chance of facial nerve palsy, which at this age would be troublesome.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I read your query and understand your concern. As I can see, (attachment removed to protect patient's identity) Adam's apple and neck appear normal.

Any history of throat pain, asthma, allergies, or other illnesses for which you are on medications? Please give me a clarification regarding what you mean by air does not entirely go down.
