I'm really worried about my brother. He's been dealing with a nasal blockage for months now after recovering from Covid. He tested negative and was fine for a bit after vaccination, but now he can't breathe properly through his nose and has to breathe through his mouth, especially at night. It's affecting his sleep a lot. He quit smoking recently after a long habit, and his PFT results were okay, but he's still not feeling well. What could be causing this ongoing congestion?

View allI'm a bit worried about my health and could use some advice. I've been smoking hookah and cigarettes daily, and I'm starting to notice that I've got a constant sore throat and this white coating on my tongue. Could these habits be causing these issues? I just want to be sure if there's something I should be doing differently. What do you think?
Yes, smoking hookah or cigarettes every day can lead to chronic sore throats and a white coat on the tongue. The chemicals and toxins in tobacco smoke can irritate the throat, leading to inflammation and soreness. Additionally, smoking can also disrupt the normal balance of bacteria in the mouth, resulting in a white coating on the tongue. To help alleviate these symptoms, it is important to quit smoking and maintain good oral hygiene.
