Hello, recently I have been having sore throat and blocked nose but it is on and off. Then when I just woke up I rrealise when I swallow my own saliva, my ear hurts. I suspect there is something at the junction of my ear and nose. Is it something that is stuck there? Please help!!!

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query your husband have obstruction in nose, sorethroat and ear pain which is due to eustachian tube dysfunction. I would suggest you to put antibacterial ear drop. You should take throat lozenges and do warm saline gargles. You should take antibiotic Levofloxacin in combination with antiallergic medication Sinarest. Visit ENT specialist once and get it examined. You should get throat swab test, paranasal sinus x-ray done and start treatment after proper diagnosis. Aoid pricking ear with any sharp object. Avoid oily and sharp food. Drink plenty of fluids.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
