Pain on right side of nose
Jun 23, 2008 in the Ear, Nose and Throat Expert Forum
The key here is that if there is something that requires further evaluation, the pain will persist. If it does not resolve in 10 days, you may need more high resolution imaging.

The tissues may be sensitive to the harsh reagents but I would recommend that you see your surgeon to double check.
sense of smell very strange!

You should see your otolaryngologist- There are many possibilities ranging from a lingering sinus infection to viral mediated anosmia. An office evaluation will usually help to determine the underlying cause.

Swollen lymph node
Jun 23, 2008 in the Ear, Nose and Throat Expert Forum
1. Is there a possibility something worrisome could be going on here? Difficult to say but a fine needle biopsy of the lymph nodes will usually help determine if there is something to worry about.

Any ideas regarding unresolved throat clicking and new symptoms
Jun 23, 2008 in the Ear, Nose and Throat Expert Forum
This may be complex, yet most likely, there is a rather simple explanation. You would be best served by seeing someone whose practice is dedicated to swallowing disorders. This is commonly found at major academic institutions. A careful history and exam will usually determine the cause- Often, it is nothing serious.
Can tinnitus be caused by post nasal drip?
Jun 23, 2008 in the Ear, Nose and Throat Expert Forum
It is unlikely that your post nasal drip is directly related to the tinnitus however if you are experiencing Eustachian tube dysfunction as a result of the allergies/post nasal drip, it may lead to a perception of tinnitus. An audiogram with tympanometry and an exam should help to determine the cause of your problem.
pulsatile tinnitus
Jun 23, 2008 in the Ear, Nose and Throat Expert Forum
Typically, when tinnitus occurs in the presence of a "clogged" ear, it is often not true tinnitus. It is not abnormal to hear the rush of jugular blood when your middle ear is not functioning properly. This may occur because the middle ear is filled with fluid. You need an audiogram, and ear examination, and an evaluation of your middle ear function...
Deviated septum etc

You need a lidocaine test wherein your nose and septum are treated with anesthesia- if your headaches resolve, you may be having contact headaches.
4 year old with ear pain
Jun 17, 2008 in the Ear, Nose and Throat Expert Forum
I would recommend that you consider a pediatric otolaryngologist at the nearest major academic medical center. This problem sounds a little more perplexing than the typical otlagia- Has anyone checked his throat to make sure that this pain is not referred from the throat? Again, a major medical center is your best best.
