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?

I was worried that I might have been exposed to COVID, so I used a liquid sanitizer on my nostrils out of fear. Now I can't smell or taste anything. I'm worried it's permanent. Is there a chance my sense of smell will come back?

I've been having frequent nosebleeds lately, and I'm not sure why because I'm not injuring my nose at all. It just starts bleeding out of nowhere, like yesterday it happened three times. The bleeding isn't too heavy, but it does keep happening. Should I be worried about this? What might be causing it, and is there something I should do to prevent it?

Cialis and Viagra are prescription medications for erectile dysfunction (ED). Consult a doctor in Chennai to discuss your suitability and obtain a prescription. Pharmacies in Chennai require a prescription to dispense these medications. Other options like herbal supplements or over-the-counter (OTC) products may not be effective or safe. Consult a urologist or sexologist for personalized advice. Remember, ED can be a symptom of underlying health issues, so a medical consultation is essential.

I have this lump on my neck that I've noticed for about a month now. I've already done FNAC twice. The first result said it was lymphadenitis and the second one mentioned something about a reactive lymphoid. I'm really concerned about whether I might need surgery for this. Could you please advise?

Surgery is usually not required unless there are complications or the swelling does not improve with conservative treatment. I would recommend taking a course of antibiotics such as Amoxicillin. Additionally, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like Acetaminophen (500mg, as needed) to help with any discomfort. Make sure to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
