Question

I'm dealing with a bit of a situation hereIve been getting a slight cough, and whenever I cough, there's this small gel-like droplet that's all sticky on my tongue. It's kind of weird. I dont have any fever or cold symptoms though. I've been doing saltwater gargles at home to try and ease it a bit. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?

Question

I've noticed this white spot on my left tonsil for the past couple of days. There's no pain, no swelling, no sore throat or fever, and I've never had any issues with my tonsils before. This is the first time seeing something like this, and I'm a bit concerned. Could you help me understand what it might be?

Question

I'm wondering if it's okay to rinse my mouth with fresh water after using Betadine for gargling. Also, if I can't rinse, is it safe to swallow the saliva that comes after gargling, because I read somewhere it might cause thyroid issues? And how long should I wait before eating or drinking anything post-gargling?

Question

I'm a bit confused about a prescription I received. My doctor told me to use Flomist AQ nasal spray for my runny nose, but when I went to the pharmacy, they only had Flomist nasal spray. Is this the same thing, or should I be looking for something specific?
