I'm feeling really worried because for the past couple of days, I've been dealing with a dry nose and now it feels super itchy. I don't have a cold or any other symptoms like a headache or fever, but I'm breastfeeding my baby and I'm concerned if these could be symptoms of a virus. Can you give me some advice on what this might be and what I should do? I'd really appreciate your help!

I've been noticing these yellowish bumps at the back of my throat for a few months now, like maybe 3 or 4 months. It's got me kinda worried because I chew tobacco. Do you have any idea what this could be?

The yellowish bumps at the back of your throat could be due to a condition called oral thrush, which is a fungal infection caused by Candida yeast. To treat oral thrush, you can use clotrimazole troches. You can dissolve one troche slowly in your mouth five times a day for 14 days. Additionally, it's important to quit chewing tobacco as it can worsen the condition and lead to other health issues.
