I'm dealing with this annoying dryness in my throat and mouth every early morning around 4 or 5 am since November. I saw a doctor and had my blood sugar tested through a urine testit was normal. The meds helped for a week, but then the dryness came back. Also, I have this long-term nasal blockage since 2011 after a viral fever. I cant smell much unless my nasal passage clears up or during a cold. Plus, I catch a cold every month or two. I'm confused about who to see for this issue because online it seems like these symptoms could be throat infection, prediabetes, or sinus problems. Could you guide me on which specialist to consult and the right treatment to pursue?

View allI've been diagnosed with reactive lymphoid hyperplasia for the past couple of months. I'm really concerned and wondering if it's something that can be cured on its own, or if surgery might be necessary. Could you provide some insights on this?
Surgery (usually in the form of a biopsy or excision) may be considered if: The swelling persists for a long time without improvement or becomes very large. The doctor suspects there might be another cause (like lymphoma or another serious condition). The lymph nodes are causing other physical symptoms (such as difficulty swallowing, breathing, or other issues due to the pressure they cause).

I'm dealing with this ringing in my left ear, which I think is called tinnitus, and on top of that, Ive got this vertigo thing happening too. It hits me once or twice a month and lasts all day. Any advice on what I could do about it?

I'm dealing with some heaviness in my head and neck and my ear's in pain too, plus Ive got these breathing issues. A couple of weeks ago, I was in an Ola cab and felt chilly, then got rashes. The coconut oil and camphor helped the rashes, but now I've got ear pain and a sense of heaviness in the back of my head. My GP gave me anti-allergic meds that didnt quite help, so I saw an Orthopaedic doctor who checked my vitamin D and B12 levels and prescribed more meds, including anti-allergic ones like Telekast. After a few days, I wasnt feeling much better, so I went to an ENT doctor who did some thyroid and CBC tests along with three different ear tests. Everything looked okay except for a blocked tube between my ear and nose. Now I've got 15 days of meds and exercises to do. I remember having similar issues a few months ago after applying hair dye, but they eventually went away. Im just not experiencing much relief this time. What else can I do?
