Every morning I've noticed a little bit of blood from my mouth or nose, and it's been going on for months now. I don't have any other symptoms, but I'm getting worried. Could you tell me which specialist I should see about this?

Given your symptoms of recurring morning bleeding from the mouth or nose without other symptoms, consider consulting an Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) specialist or an Otorhinolaryngologist, who can examine your nasal passages and sinuses to identify potential causes, such as nasal dryness, allergies, or bleeding disorders, and recommend appropriate treatment.

My sister has been dealing with ear ringing for the past year. Is there a chance that it can be cured?

Ear ringing, also known as tinnitus, can have various causes and treatments depend on the underlying reason. It is important to first determine the cause of the tinnitus before starting treatment. I recommend your sister to consult an ENT specialist for a proper evaluation. Treatment options may include using a white noise machine, counseling, or medications such as Betahistine (brand name Serc) at a dosage of 16 mg three times a day to help with symptoms.

I'm waking up and noticing that I'm spitting brown saliva, which is really unusual for me. I've never smoked or drank, and this is the first time I've experienced something like this. Could you help me understand what might be going on?

Brown saliva in the morning could be due to various reasons such as dehydration, nasal congestion, or even minor bleeding in the mouth during the night. However, if this persists, it is important to consult a doctor for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can try using a saline nasal spray to help with any nasal congestion and ensure you are staying hydrated throughout the day.
