I'm really puzzled about this swollen lymph node I've had for 4 months. It's not changing in size at all and sometimes it hurts around my neck where it's swollen. Otherwise, I'm feeling healthy but I've noticed some weird stuff lately. Occasionally, I find what looks like black hair in my phlegm and at times, it's this greenish or greyish color. Plus, there's a kind of pressure in my throat and around my shoulder or neck blade when I take a deep breath. This all seemed to start after I got Covid in April. I also experience daily neck and back pain, probably because of my job, but I'm not completely sure if it's related. I'm just trying to understand what could be causing the swollen lymph node. Could you help me figure this out?

View allI'm dealing with a sticky throat issue, and it feels like the cough is just stuck there all the time. I had a cough a few days ago and it's still bothering me. Could there be something else going on, or should I be doing something specific to help with this?
You may be experiencing post-nasal drip causing the sensation of a sticky throat. You can try using an over-the-counter antihistamine like Claritin (loratadine) 10mg once daily to help reduce the mucus production. Additionally, you can use a saline nasal spray to help clear out any mucus in your nasal passages. If the symptoms persist, you may need to see a doctor for further evaluation.

I've been feeling some pressure on the left side of my throat lately, and it's kind of hard to breathe at times, which makes me want to cough. There's this strange feeling on the left side of my chest too sometimes. I can still take deep breaths without any issues, but my pulse can be a bit high, like around 100 beats a minute. Generally, my health is fine, and the only medication I'm on is birth control pills. Should I be concerned about this? I'm traveling abroad right now and will be for the next two weeks, so I'm wondering if I need to do something about it or can wait until I'm back home.
