Suggest Treatment For Nasal Congestion Along With Swelling In The Neck

Posted on Wed, 26 Jul 2017

Question: Ive had a rock hard swollen 3cm lymphnode on the right side of my neck under my chin for 4 years, I had 2 at one point but they biopsied it and it was negative, Now my question. For the past few weeks ive had a clogged ear and droopy blurry eye and occasionally a clogged nose could this be lymphedema from the fluids not passing properly? If so what should I do?

Nasal congestion with Eustachian tube blockage

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to healthcare magic and thanks for putting up the query
You are having eustachian tube blockage due to nasal congestion. The nasal congestion is probably due to a nasal septum deviation or it can be allergic.
The eyes are also watering due to nasal congestion only as the tear ducts open into nasal cavities.
Please get a x-ray paranasal sinuses done and send me the report.
Also tell me what medicines have u been taking so far.
Follow up with the required information so that I can suggest you better.
Take care
Thanks and regards

Nasal congestion with Eustachian tube blockage

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for the information.
You should get a x-ray paranasal sinuses done and send me the pictures of your face also so that I can diagnose the problem and suggest you better.
You should take a combination of levocetrizine and pbrnylepherine twice daily and xylometazoline nasal drops three times a day for a week. This will decongest the nasal mucosa and the eustachian tube. You will definitely be benefited. Take steam inhalation.
Follow up with the required information.
Take care
