I've been feeling like there's always mucus in my throat for the past few months, and I usually end up spitting it out. Lately, I've noticed that it feels like I might throw up in the mornings because of it. I'm also wondering if it might be getting stuck somewhere in my chest. Can you help me understand what's going on?

I'm an 18-year-old guy and my voice hasn't deepened yet. I talked to some doctors and they said I have puberphonia. What can I do to get a deeper, more manly voice soon? Any advice would be super helpful.
Puberphonia, also known as mutational falsetto, is a condition where a person continues to speak in a high-pitched voice beyond puberty. To help deepen your voice, you can try voice therapy exercises. Additionally, testosterone therapy may also be considered in some cases. One medication that may be prescribed to help with voice deepening is testosterone. Testosterone can be prescribed in the form of Androderm patches, with a typical starting dose of 2.5 mgday. However, the dosage may vary based on individual needs and should be determined by your healthcare provider. It's important to follow up with your healthcare provider for proper evaluation and management of your puberphonia.

My 4.5-year-old son has trouble breathing and always breathes through his mouth due to enlarged adenoids. The ENT recommended surgery. I want to understand the difference between normal surgery and coblation technique are there any side effects with coblation? Which one should we go for?
In an adenoidectomy, the main difference between the traditional method (curettage) and coblation technique lies in how the adenoid tissue is removed and the potential for residual tissue. Coblation, while sometimes considered more precise, can still have some side effects like bleeding and infection, and there's a small chance of adenoid regrowth. Ultimately, the best choice for your child depends on your ENT's expertise, your child's specific situation, and your comfort level with the risks and benefits of each technique.
