Health Query

I am male and 34 years old. I'm suffering from loss of smell and taste for 4 years due to nasal allergy. By using dexamethasone it was ok. But it came again. I want its permanent treatment.

Sorry to say permanent treatment may not be possible as long time allergy damages the olfactory nerve. The nerve of smell.

Hello lybrate-user, don't worry at all, dexamethasone is just an adjuvant drug given during the peril-implantation period. But it has not shown any positive impact on increasing the pregnancy chances. So your result won't be affected by missing that.

Dexamethasone is a steroid and causes such side effects.
Either you can wait for the side effects to go on its own or take proper homoeopathic treatment.

Health Query

I had ear pain so prescribed otek ac neo ear drops. I had a opened bottle from mid-june 2020, which I have used for 2 days (november 26 and 27, 2020). Later I realized we should not use opened chloramphenicol ear drops 4 weeks after opening. Will it cause any side effects. I have bought a new ear drop. Please advise as soon as possible.

Dr. Vilas Misra91%(782 ratings)

ENT Specialist•Lucknow

Dear lybrate-user, ear pain can be due to bacterial infection fungal disease or just wax. You have to give a history of whether there is ear discharge if present its nature. Eventualy you must undergo an otoscopic (like stethescope) examination of the ear for which you should consult a good ent specialist at the earliest. Yours sincerely.
