Question

I've noticed a small cut on my uvula and I'm really worried about it. I've also been dealing with gas and acidity issues. Could these be related somehow? I'm not taking any meds right now, so I'm wondering what I should do next. Do you have any advice on treatments or remedies?

Question

I'm a bit concerned because for the past couple of days, I've been waking up with numbness in my left ear. It usually goes away after I shake my ear for about 5 minutes. I'm scheduled to fly on Friday, and I'm worried if this might cause any issues during the flight. Should I be worried about this?

Question

I've been dealing with red bumps on the back of my throat and tongue for a week now. They're itchy but not really painful. It's winter and everyone's got a cold at work, so I ended up with a mild cold too, and a couple of nights of low fever. I've also been experiencing loose stools. This happened once before, about 8 months ago, when I caught a cold. Should I be worried about the red bumps coming back? What could be causing this, and are there any remedies I should try?
