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?

I've been noticing a bad smell when I cough, but I don't have any cold or flu symptoms, and my throat doesn't hurt at all. I went to see a doctor, and they mentioned it might be submucous fibrosis. What should I do about it?

I'm having this issue where I start coughing when I talk. It usually kicks in after I've said a couple of sentences and it mainly happens in the evenings. I've also noticed it's kind of seasonal. It feels like my vocal cords are getting irritated, and I end up not being able to continue any discussion. If I stop talking for a while, it gets better, but then it starts all over again when I begin speaking. Any idea what's going on with me?

There might be some issue with your vocal cords visit ENT doctor for evaluation and appropriate management.
