Question

I'm having this strange issue where onions and garlic smell really bad and different to me, and it's making it pretty much impossible to eat anything that has them. It's not the usual onion or garlic scent, but something really off-putting and irritating. I'm not sure why this is happening, but I really want to figure it out and get better. Any ideas on what might be causing this, or how I can manage it?

Question

I'm really struggling with this whole not smoking thing after my tonsil removal. I've been smoking about 15 cigarettes a day, and now the past couple of days without them are just killing me. The NRT options aren't helping much either. My doctor mentioned something about my bleeding risk going from 2 to 3 if I smoke, but that doesn't entirely make sense to me. I'm trying to find out what the absolute minimum time is before I can start smoking again. Honestly, quitting for good isn't an option for me, and going two weeks without smoking seems nearly impossible. Any advice?

Question

I've been dealing with a throat ulcer I got treated for about three weeks ago. I saw an ENT specialist and took all the prescribed medication. While the ulcer seems to be healed, I'm worried because I still can't talk or get my voice back. It's been over three weeks since this started and I'm really concerned. What should I do about this?

Question

I'm really worried because I've had this small white spot on my left tonsil for about three months now, and it just won't go away even after taking antibiotics. There's no pain, but should I be concerned about it not disappearing? What could it be?
