Question

I've been dealing with this annoying ear blockage for the past couple of days and started using some clear wax ear drops to help out. Now, whenever I pull down my earlobe, I hear a pop and I can hear better, which is kind of weird but also a relief. Do you think I should keep using these ear drops, or is there another way I should try to clear things up? I'm just a bit concerned about whether this popping is normal and if I'm handling this correctly.

Question

I'm struggling with a really bad cough because of what I think is post-nasal drip from allergies, and I'm not sure who to see. Should I go to an ENT specialist or is a pulmonologist better for something like this? I'm just trying to figure out the best route for treatment.

Question

My throat's been hurting for a couple of days now, but its not like a typical sore throat. The pain feels like its on the outside at two specific spots, and it doesnt hurt when I swallow or anything, no cold symptoms either. The pain's just there constantly, whether I talk, sneeze, yawn, or even touch my throat. Eating and drinking seem normal though. Is it okay if I have cold foods or spicy stuff? And should I be doing any gargling since it's not like the usual throat pain we hear about?

Question

I'm dealing with tonsillitis and noticed these white patches on my throat, but weirdly, I don't have a fever. There's just a bit of congestion. Do you think it's necessary for me to take Augmentin 625 three times a day after meals for a whole week to deal with this? I've never really taken antibiotics more than once a day before, so I'm a bit uncertain about this dosage. Can you help clear this up for me?
