  • Mastoiditis is a dangerous infection of the bone behind the ear. If you have this problem you ought to go directly to the emergency department and often you need an operation to clear away the pus that is collecting in this bone and the abscess under the skin.
    In this video I describe the signs that you may have this infection.

    Oh my goodness. I had this and my doctor told me to take paracetamol. I never knew there was a terminology for the condition.
    I need to research it now. It took weeks for me to recover. I stayed in bed day and night. It was horrible.

    Hi Veer, Great content. I am diagnosed with mild OSA. the culprit in my case is the soft palate collapse during sleep. my uvula and skin around it is more down and forward stretched towards the tongue. Its like, if i open mouth with the tongue stretch outwards from my mouth , one cannot see my uvula region because it hides behind my tongue.
    My question here is, What is your take on RFA(radio frequency ablation) or laser treatments like NightLase. in cases like mine with mild OSA ?
    I am from India. i am doing a lot of research on my issue consulting various doctors. No one seem to narrow it down clearly. A lot of them suggest invasive surgeries which i am not considering.
