I'm really worried because for almost two years now, it feels like a lot of mucus is just building up in my mouth and throat, and it's like I constantly have to clear my throat. But lately, the past month or so, I've been feeling this burning sensation down my throat, especially when I breathe, and it's super bothersome. My throat and chest also feel really congested. I haven't had a fever, but it's been going on for so long now. What could be causing this?

View allI'm noticing a hard bump on the side of my nose, just about an inch below my eye. I initially tried to squeeze it thinking it was a pimple, but nothing came out, and then it disappeared for about an hour before returning. Now it's hard and I'm wondering if it could be an allergic reaction to the nose pads on my glasses since I do have sensitive skin and a history of allergies. Could this really be just an allergy or should I be worried about something else?
As you said that could be Allergic reaction,do not attempt to squeeze it or scratch it, avoid triggering factors stay healthy.

I've been having a bitter taste in my mouth whenever I cough, but there's no blood in the phlegm. I've also got on-and-off congestion and a stuffy nose. What could be causing this? Should I be worried?
You may be experiencing symptoms of post-nasal drip. To help with the bitter taste in your mouth and congestion, you can try using an over-the-counter antihistamine like loratadine (Claritin) 10mg once daily. Additionally, you can use a nasal decongestant spray like oxymetazoline (Afrin) 2-3 sprays in each nostril every 12 hours as needed for congestion. Make sure to stay hydrated and consider using a humidifier to help with your symptoms.

I'm just a little concerned because while playing with my daughter, her head accidentally bumped into my wife's nose. It hurt her on the left side, but she said she felt fine after a bit. However, later at night, she noticed some blood spots when she blew her nose. There's no pain or constant bleeding, but the blood spots got us a bit worried. Is that something normal?
