What medicine for tonsillitis pain in ears?

I understand your concern about your son's adenotonsils and ear infection. The tonsils could be causing his ear pain since they are close by in the throat. To help with the pain, you can give him acetaminophen (PCM). Make sure he continues the prescribed medications, drinks plenty of fluids, gets enough rest, and eats soft, cool foods to soothe his throat. If his symptoms don’t improve or worsen, please see the doctor again for further tests.

A benign parotid gland tumor refers to a non-cancerous growth in a salivary gland located at the side of your ear. Symptoms may include a bulge in the cheek or jaw area. In most cases, surgery is the primary method of dealing with the tumor. In most cases, the recovery time can be a bit longer than a few weeks.

Experiencing 7-week hoarseness of voice – What to do?

A hoarse voice for a whopping 7 weeks is a long time, a while for you to be concerned about the fact that it may be serious. Hoarseness, however, can be linked to some conditions such as a cold, acid reflux, or voice overuse. To help your voice heal, try drinking lots of water, using your voice as little as possible, and resting your voice. If it doesn't get better soon, it's a good idea to see an ENT specialist.

Why is my right tonsil bigger and painful?

You might have tonsillitis, where your tonsils (the two lumps at the back of your throat) become swollen and inflamed. This can be caused by bacteria or viruses. The inflammation could be why you feel pain while eating and swallowing, and the white patches indicate an infection. It's important to see an ENT specilaist, as they may recommend antibiotics to treat the infection. Meanwhile, drink plenty of fluids and avoid very hot or spicy foods.

Why do I have sore throat with yellow blisters?

You have tonsillitis which is the case when your tonsils become infected and is the reason for sore throat and blisters. The infection is caused by different viruses or bacteria. To support, water in great amounts and warm salt water gargles first need to be healed by abstaining from voice. Over-the-counter pain relief may also provide some comfort. If symptoms continue, it is better to visit an ENT specialist for more tests.

Can mumps-related tinnitus be treated effectively despite hearing loss?

The feeling of noises in the ear, called tinnitus, can be very distressing. Tinnitus in such cases is usually nerve damage caused by the mumps infection. Sadly, in some cases, the hearing loss may not be reversible. To manage the symptoms, your brother can try listening to soothing music, using white noise machines, and avoiding loud noises. Counseling or therapy can also be helpful for the patients.

Why is my throat inflamed with white patches?

The symptoms you have mentioned suggest a throat infection which is most probably of bacterial origin. The white patches seen on your tonsils are another hallmark of this condition. Amoxicillin is a good step as it is the medication prescribed by the clinic that helps deal with the infection. It is vital to finish the entire course of antibiotics, which you are taking even if you feel better. Your lost voice will probably go back to normal as you continue to heal. Ensure that you get enough rest, drink plenty of water, and stick to the medication directions. If your symptoms stay or get worse, it's a good idea to have a follow-up with an ENT specialist.

How can I unclog my ear effectively?

The ear canal can be clogged and uncomfortable when wax builds up and gets removed, which can sometimes result in swelling and sulking. This may make you think your ear is blocked and may cause you pain when burping or swallowing. To help unclog your ear, try using warm olive oil drops to soften any remaining wax. You can also try gently irrigating your ear with warm water to help clear out any residue. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it's best to seek further advice from your ENT specialist.
