Question

I've been noticing a bad smell when I cough, but I don't have any cold or flu symptoms, and my throat doesn't hurt at all. I went to see a doctor, and they mentioned it might be submucous fibrosis. What should I do about it?

Question

I'm a bit concerned about my blood test results. My high mean platelet volume is 14, and I noticed my total platelet count is 223. What could this mean? Should I be worried about anything related to these numbers?

Question

I'm curious about some issues I've been having. I've been dealing with sinus infections and nasal polyps for about 5 years now. I went through surgery back in June 2016, but just a few months later, the same problems started again. Lately, I've been noticing my nose gets completely blocked, sometimes just one side, but there are days when both are blocked. It feels like something is stuck in there, and its really hard to breathe, especially at night. I've been using XyloFlo nasal steroids for the past two years whenever things get bad, and I also use a neti pot with saline tabs. I have a CT scan that's less than a year old if you think it might help. I'd really appreciate any advice you can offer because it's getting pretty frustrating and it's hard to focus on studying for my exams. Any thoughts on what I can do to feel better?

Question

I'm 27 years old, weigh 72kg, and my height is 174cm. Lately, I've been sneezing a lot in the mornings, probably because of the cold weather. I've also been feeling some heaviness in my head. When I blow my nose by pinching it shut, I hear this ticking sound near my nose. It even happens when I'm just doing normal activities. Does this sound like a sinus infection to you? Could it be because of the cold? I'm really curious and a bit worried about what's going on.
