Question

I'm really having a tough time with my headphones. I can't manage to keep them on for more than 5 minutes because they cause discomfort and sometimes even a slight pain in my ears and throat. It's okay when I'm not using them, but I can't figure out if I will ever be able to use headphones again without this issue. I've noticed dryness in my ears, so I tried using a few drops of coconut oil which helps temporarily, but then after 30 minutes of headphone use, my ears are dry again and the discomfort returns. Could it be the headphones causing the dryness, or is there something else going on? I'm really looking for a permanent solution to this ear and throat discomfort from using headphones. Any suggestions?

Question

I'm really worried because for the past three months, I've had this constant excess mucus in my throat. I feel like I need to clear my throat all the time, and sometimes it even gets sore or I'll have a cough with this sticky mucus. It's frustrating because my throat occasionally turns red too. I'm trying to understand what's going on, but I'm completely stumped. What could be causing this? Is there something specific I should be looking out for or trying to manage it?

Question

I'm a bit concerned because I've noticed this tiny round lump on the bottom right side of my neck. It's not painful at all, which seems odd to me, but I'm just worried since it showed up suddenly and only on one side. Should I be worried about this? What might it be?
