My ears have been plugged for four weeks due to middle ear infection (otitis media). I have been on antibiotics (initially azithromycin and now just finishing 10 days of moxifloxacin 400mg/day). I have had no improvement. I am a 61 year old male. How much longer can I expect this infection to continue? Do I need to see an ENT? Thank you for any assistance.

For nasal allergies (mold, dust, and tree pollen), is there any particular corticosteroid nose spray that is more effective than the others?

Hi I had a sinus surgery about two years ago but recently have had pressure on my forehead (especially on my right side near the eye. Also in the below, is the ?left? actually referring to my right side?). Hence, I took a CT scan again. Below are the findings:
The patient is status post bilateral partial ethmoidectomies and antrectomies since the prior examination. There is mucosal thickening superficial to an agger nasi cell on the left although the frontoethmoid recess is otherwise clear. The frontal sinuses are otherwise clear. There is no nasal or nasopharyngeal mass. The previously seen deviation of the maxillary spine is no longer present. Maxillary spine appears to have been resected. There is no bony destruction or expansion. The intraorbital contents are unremarkable as is the orbital apex and sella turcica. Middle ear cavity and mastoid air cells are grossly clear.
Would you be able to interpret this in a detailed and understandable way? Also, my doctor recommended that I have another surgery to clean my sinuses (especially frontal). Do you think this is necessary? If not, what other options are there to relieve the pressure?
Thank you.

Dear Doctor,
I am a 45 years old female classical singer and music teacher. For the first time in my singing career since my age of 10, I have started facing a peculiar trouble in my voice since last couple of months.
While singing or even speaking, I have started noticing broken/ vibrating voice at many notes, especially in lower scales. It becomes more perceivable when I remain on a single note for long. But the problem varies significantly practically without any fixed pattern.
With stroboscopic tests, ENT specialists of my place did not find any ?anatomical problem? in my voice box .
Under his suggestion, I had my Thyroid tests done. Report showed my TSH level as 6.80 µIU/ml (Against 0.39-6.16µIU/ml Normal Reference).
My USG Neck report suggested presence of ?Mild Thyroiditis, with tiny nodules.?
Based upon these, the doctor prescribed anti allergic drug and suggested for voice rest for two months.
Without much of positive outcome after two months, he suggested me to consult other ENT specialists and Voice Therapists.
Please suggest my next course of action. May I have any specific treatment of this ailment at your clinic?
Thanking you with regards-
Mrs. Papiya Sarkar

I have had a "clogged ear" feeling for over three years now. I have seen doctos, a few ENT's and they tell me I just have to live with it. Some days it drives me more insane then other days. I feel like I have tried everything and nothing helps it. At the moment I am trying to take Sudafed every 12 hours, and I have a nose spray that I use at times. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

my uncle suffers from severe hearing impairment. He always had problems with his ears since childhood.He is 55 years old, illeterate and tells me doctors have told him he had ear perforation on one side and has been on loads of medications since with no help. He also had chronic serous like discharge on other ear as well. He hearing is so impaired he could hardly hear now. What are his options.
Many Thanks

Hello Doctor......7 days ago I had an excruciating pain in my left ear following which i vomited and had fever for about 3 days. After taking combiflam the pain subsided. AS soon as my medication stopped the pain resumed and now it has spread to my right ear also. It has become difficult for me to hear. The doctor recommmends an operation to remove the fluid which has accumulated in the ears due to cold but i am not sure whether i should go for it or not because another doctor has advised me against it...please reply soon.

For about 3 weeks I have fluid in my ear. Dr gave me flonse to use so I used that for a couple of days but that didnt help. I was told to see an ENT. Next available appointment isn't until another 3 weeks. Should I wait that long and will it get worse?

Anonymous writes: About 14 months ago I woke up with visible swelling in the right side of my neck. GP said my Lymph nodes were swollen and prescribed antibiotics. Swelling persisted several weeks and was referred to an ENT. By the time I got to the ENT the swelling had subsided. ENT said to come back if it returns. About a year later the swelling came back more severe with additional swelling on the left side. Went to a different ENT who performed a neck CT scan, needle biopsy and excise biopsy of a cervical lymph node and still no diagnoses. Where would you look next for diagnosis. Why haven't any of the doctors done any type of blood work?
