Hi Vik. I really enjoyed the video about tinnitus. Thanks! I have some problems with lightly clogged left ear, and im hearing distortion on the left ear when it sounds loudly. No ear wax, no infection on the eardrum and my doctor gave me a cortizon treatment nosespray for 14 days. I have had this weird distortion sound (when its laud) and unbalanced (clogged hearing) and mild tinnitus for about + sensitiv for sound (its better now) for 24 days now - it has getting better specially after a steam bath. Im wondering if I have Eustachian Tube Dysfunction! I really would like to know more about Eustachian Tube Dysfunction and your videos are the best. Could you please make a video about it? All the best from Sweden! Thanks again for your videos!
Vik makes the best videos on UA-cam. My UARS makes me clench my jaw at night trying to breathe, which gave me temporomandibular dysfunction, which is now inflaming the joint so bad that it's spread into my ear and destroying my hearing. My local doctor didn't send me to an ENT, he just gave me cipro+dex eardrops. I don't have an infection. Would they be worth taking just to reduce the inflammation?
Here I learned a lot things about eardrops but still have a old stupid Q. When eardrops come out from the ear even after resting for an hour, it seems that the medicine has been wasted, is it normal? If there is a hole in the eardrum, will the eardrops still come out in that amount? Very useful vid. thank you!
If it has been in for a long time, then it would have done something. It will look the same as when it went in. It doesn't change colour in the ear. If the hole is very small then the fluid won't be able to pass through it (meniscus stops it). If it is big, then no the same amount will not come out. Glad you found it useful
Thank you Mr Vik for this healthy ear message, im experiencing migraines so would it be possible that my ear, once blocked and later on unusual headaches which i suspect to be migraines, be the cause of it ?
Hi doc, are you able to make a video on having a smelly sneeze? What causes it and how to treat it? I’ve had it for years and every time I sneeze people around me can smeel my sneeze
Ask your doctor / ENT about it. Typically a smelly sneeze that lasts a long time is a fungal sinus infection or something similar. It's quite easy to deal with. Try some NeilMed Sinus rinse to start with and see your doctor. Good luck
I have almost endless itchy ears. A gp several years ago said it looked like exema. I used to get otomize but new gp said to try earcalm, but earcalm also says to not use longterm. Im not sure what to do now. I did get some different things OTC on holiday in greece but im not really sure what they are so whether i should use them: Synalar drops which seem to be steroid and acid i think; Celestoderm-v with garamycin which is a cream the greek pharmacist said to apply with a qtip - i did that for w few days but its far too tempting to rub the inside of my ears when doing that which is why i went to a different pharmacist and got the synalar.
Is my ear or nose spur causing my horrendous 7 week non stop migraine? Gloucester ent nose endoscopy found a spur in my right nostril, I also have mild earache.
@@VikVeerENTSurgeon thank you, my gp is sending me for a head/neck ct scan, is there a special ct scan just for the sinus area? I will let you know the outcome, meanwhile 10mg of prednisone is helping. Grateful thanks to you VikVeer for your brilliant knowledge and generous help to so many people.
Was just watching Adenotonsillectomy video, just wondering how much this would be to have done privately? Just a ball park figure? Have an ENT appt in February on NHS so will find out if as I suspect I would benefit from this as been diagnosed with sleep apnea and believe this is a big part of issue. In case they not interested in doing anything though was just wondering on private cost?
I presume most of the steps apply to Sodium Bicarb for ear wax too? The only one I think might be wrong would be the duration. Would that still be 30 minutes, or would you recommend to reduce to 5 or 10 minutes? (I ask because the leaflet just says to keep your head tilted for a couple of minutes.)
Slightly different - as there is no risk with wax drops you can use them multiple times - every hour if you need. I would keep them in for as long as possible though.
I have CSOM central perforation in my left ear i do tympanoplasty 2year ago now My eardrum perforated again after tympanoplasty what should i do now and what could be the cause of this
I tried using the drops, doing everything like you’ve shared in the video, but my ear feels clogged, like the drops won’t go down and my hearing is muffled. I’ve tried pulling my ear and pushing the tragus. How long do I need to wait for the drops to go in and the muffle to go away
I put ear drops in my ears and i lay down for almost 1 hour and when i get up theres no liquid coming out in my ears , is that okay? Or bad if theres no ear drop coming out after almost 1 hour laying in my bed? I have hole in my ears about 20 percent 😢 do you think the ear drop went inside the hole? 🥺
I had an ear infection last year, treated it with neomycin and it resolved. I feel the infection coming back now. You are saying that once you use an aminoglycoside once, you can never use it again ever? Or just that you shouldn't do multiple courses back to back?
Hi doc can I ask? I had ear infection and am treating it with eardrops prescribe by Doctor is it okay if it has small blood discharge?thank you hope you will notice me doc @Vik
I was using peroxide and it still hasn't worked today.I put some Olive oil in my ear.So I don't know what's going to happen.Can you speak to that?I'm in america by the way
Great video Vik, thankyou for the shoutout

I've got a few videos about eustachian tube dysfunction. Have a look at this one...

We want to know about a regular blocked ear not an infection.... What about murine ?
No, we want to know about an ear infection not a blocked ear. For a blocked ear you need to get the earwax removed
Thank you doctor i am from srilanka ❤❤
This days am too recovering from ear unbalance problem
We cannot get Ear Calm in the US...is it acetic acid?? would vinegar work??

Itchy ears are hard. Difficult to differentiate from infection and eczema.

theoretically it could. hard to know from here.

I'm guessing that it would be about £3k ? I'm not really sure. It depends how much the hospitals in your area charge.
Dr am getting tonsillectomy and turbinectomy next month is it painful to recover both surgeries.thank you
I'm afraid it is - ua-cam.com/video/M1fenUbXCfQ/v-deo.html

Dr Virk lately this company selling a neck brace for snoring would start with your picture. Can you comment on that and maybe review the product
I don't know anything about it, they are probably using my appearance to gain sales. Not a good sign I'm afraid
I have CSOM central perforation in my left ear i do tympanoplasty 2year ago now My eardrum perforated again after tympanoplasty what should i do now and what could be the cause of this
Having an ear infection in Thailand and watching your video xD. I hope the drops they gave me will work normally. Lowkey scared ahah
I tried using the drops, doing everything like you’ve shared in the video, but my ear feels clogged, like the drops won’t go down and my hearing is muffled. I’ve tried pulling my ear and pushing the tragus. How long do I need to wait for the drops to go in and the muffle to go away
this is mostly for antibiotic ear drops - are you using sodium bicarbonate for ear wax?
@ it’s for an ear infection
I put ear drops in my ears and i lay down for almost 1 hour and when i get up theres no liquid coming out in my ears , is that okay? Or bad if theres no ear drop coming out after almost 1 hour laying in my bed? I have hole in my ears about 20 percent 😢 do you think the ear drop went inside the hole? 🥺
Maybe visit a doctor and see if it's advisable using any drops if you have a perforated ear drum.
I had an ear infection last year, treated it with neomycin and it resolved. I feel the infection coming back now. You are saying that once you use an aminoglycoside once, you can never use it again ever? Or just that you shouldn't do multiple courses back to back?
I got pain on my left ear while landing when I went to doc she gave me ear drop but didn’t tell me if I have to use for both ears
Dr you didnt explain how the antibiotc can cause hearing loss
I cannot use ear drops, the always seem to get stuck and take days/weeks to come out 😔
You sure you don't just have ear wax? It's the most common cause of this. I have a video on ear cameras somewhere...
@@astridjones6327 this is happening to me too. I believe its ear wax. The hand vaccum works for me when this happens. Hope this helps
