I'm really worried about a possible CSF leak and I'm not sure who to see about it. Should I consult an ENT specialist, a neurologist, or a neurosurgeon? Any advice on which doctor would be best for this situation?

Question

I've been having this pain right on the side of my Adam's apple, and it's pretty tender when I press on it from the outside. It really hurts when I swallow, but it's not like a regular sore throat 'cause it doesn't hurt at the back of my throat. It's more at the front, and if I tense up like before sneezing or when yawning, it hurts even more. What could be causing this? Should I be worried?

Question

I've been dealing with sneezing thats pretty repetitive, almost four days a week. I also struggle with breathing issues, but its not constantsome weeks yes, other weeks no. Could this sneezing issue be because of a deviation in my nasal septum? When I tilt my head up, I can spot the deviation pretty easily. What do you think?

Question

Can smoking cigarettes lead to swollen lymph nodes in my neck or behind my ear? I've noticed some swelling and I'm getting a bit concerned it might be linked to my smoking habit.
