I've just been to an ENT to get the ear wax removed, and now I'm getting this buzzing sound in my ear. Also, the tragus on my left ear hurts when I touch it. I'm really worried about this. Do you think my tinnitus will ever go away?

Question

I've had these red bumps in the back of my throat for over 2 months now and they're just spreading more and more. It's honestly pretty scary. Do you have any idea what could be causing this or how I can treat it? I'm really worried it's something serious.

Question

My son has a 2cm swollen area on the side of his neck and we've been told it's reactive lymphoid hyperplasia. He's also been coughing a lot. I'm really concerned and I'm trying to understand what might be going on. Could you help me figure out what's happening? Is there something specific we should be worried about or watch for?

Question

I've been having this pain in the back of my throat for a while now, like 3 months, and even though Ive seen a few doctors, they didnt seem worried. But I finally saw a gastroenterologist who said I have reflux and also treated me for an intestine infection, which is better now. The chest pain's still there though, and he thought it might be osteochondritis but said it should go if the infection cleared up, which hasn't happened. Im mostly worried because I noticed really dark veins in my throat, and even after finishing a treatment for a throat infection a few days back, there's still some pain. Also, my ear started inflaming about 4 months ago, and while ibuprofen helped last month, it's bothering me again, especially at night. Could this all be connected somehow?
