Question

I've noticed that my uvula seems to be slightly off-center, leaning a tiny bit to the right when I say "aah." I don't really have any other symptoms, but I'm curious if this slight deviation is considered normal. Should I be worried about it?

Uvula asymmetry can be a normal finding in some individuals. As long as you do not have any other symptoms such as difficulty swallowing, sore throat, or snoring, it is likely nothing to be concerned about. Just keep an eye on it for any changes.

Question

I've been dealing with post nasal drips for a while and was using Nasivion S spray and Montair LC, but now my new doctor switched me to Metaspray nasal spray and Histrafree 120 tablets. After taking them this morning, I noticed swelling and a discoloration on the roof of my mouth. Should I stop taking these meds or keep going with what the doctor prescribed?

Question

I'm currently taking Vertin 8 mg for decreased hearing in one ear and have been on it for over a week now. I've just been prescribed Dolo 650 and Aziwok 500 mg and was wondering if I can take all of these together at night after eating. I also take a half tablet of Nexito 5 mg in the morning. Is it safe to combine all these medications? Are there any interactions I should be worried about?

Question

I've noticed that the upper back part of my throat is swollen. It seemed to have gotten a bit better over the last couple of days, but it's still noticeable. I'm curious about whether this is something normal or if it's a sign of a more serious issue. Could you share some remedies or advice on what I should do about it?
