I've been taking Ebast-M for about four years, and whenever I miss taking it for like three days, I start feeling this pain on one side of my throat and get random sneezing fits. Can you help me figure out what's going on and maybe suggest how I can manage or reduce these symptoms? It's been a bit of a hassle, so any advice would be appreciated.

It seems like you are experiencing symptoms of allergies due to missing your ebastine and montelukast tablets. To reduce your throat pain and sneezing, you can start by taking Ebast-M tablet again. The usual dosage is one tablet once daily. Additionally, you can take a pain reliever like Paracetamol for throat pain. It is important to continue taking your prescribed medication regularly to manage your allergy symptoms effectively.

I'm pretty worried because out of the blue, my husband has this tiny lump on the side of his neck, near the left. I've snapped a pic to show it because I'm not sure what it could be. Should we be concerned about this? Do you think it's best to see a general physician or maybe an ENT specialist for this kind of thing?

Swollen lymph nodes are usually a sign that the body is fighting an infection. However, without further evaluation, it is difficult to determine the exact cause. I recommend consulting with a general physician first for an initial evaluation. The general physician may refer you to an ENT specialist if further investigation is needed. In the meantime, you can give him over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen for any discomfort.

I've been dealing with this strange issue where one nostril is always blocked, but it switches sides every now and then. Thing is, I don't have a cold or the flu or anything like that. It's been going on for about six months now. A few doctors have mentioned it could be an allergy, while others think it's sinusitis. I'm just really confused and would like to know what might be really causing this. Any insights?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of chronic rhinosinusitis. This condition can cause alternating nostril blockage without the presence of a cold or flu. I recommend using a nasal corticosteroid spray like Flonase (fluticasone) to help reduce inflammation and improve airflow. You can use 2 sprays in each nostril once daily. Additionally, using a saline nasal spray like Ocean Spray can help keep your nasal passages moist and clear. Make sure to stay hydrated and consider using a humidifier in your room to help with congestion. If symptoms persist, it's best to follow up with an ENT specialist for further evaluation and management.
