Every morning when I wake up, my nose is really blocked which makes it hard for me to breathe. It's been going on for the past couple of days, and I'm a bit worried. Could this be a symptom of the coronavirus? Would really appreciate your thoughts on this.

I'm really worried about my sister. She's been experiencing this weird burnt plastic smell and taste whenever she eats anything. It's like everything just tastes and smells like plastic to her, and raw veggies seem to be the worst. This all started about two weeks ago, and she doesn't have a cold, cough, or fever or anything like that. Now she's also feeling some pain in her left lower jaw since yesterday. Do you have any idea what this might be? Who should we talk to about getting this checked out?

I've noticed a small, white, pimple-like spot on the right side of my throat that's been there for about 10-12 days now. I've started taking Becasoule and Cetirizine for the past two days, but I'm not sure if that's helping. Should I be worried about this, or is there something else I should be doing?
