I had to have some teeth removed a few months back, and I've been having a rough time since. One of the teeth was near the back on the upper part, and ever since then, I've noticed this small hole where I can suck and push air through. Now I'm dealing with migraines almost daily and this awful smell coming from one nostril. There's also a lot of smelly mucus, and it seems to be running down the back of my throat, making me blow my nose like 25 times a day. Could this all be related to getting my teeth removed, and what should I do about it?

I'm having this persistent pain on the left side of my throat that started last May. I had an endoscopy, but nothing showed up. The pain eased for a while, but now it's back. It's really painful under my tongue, especially deep on the left side, almost like a sore. The rest of my tongue feels fine. I'm kind of worried and just need to understand what might be going on. Can you help me figure this out?

A lump between the ear and jaw can be concerning! Given your age and symptoms, possible causes include: 1. *Lymphadenitis*: Inflamed lymph nodes due to infection (e.g., ear, throat, or dental issues). 2. *Parotid gland swelling*: Inflammation of the parotid gland, which can be caused by infection, blockage, or trauma. 3. *Abscess or cyst*: A collection of pus or fluid that can cause pain and swelling. It's essential to consult a doctor, preferably an Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) specialist, for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. They may recommend: 1. Physical examination 2. Imaging tests (e.g., ultrasound, CT scan) 3. Blood tests to check for infection or inflammation In the meantime, apply warm compresses to the area to help reduce pain and discomfort.

I'm 27 years old, weigh 72kg, and my height is 174cm. Lately, I've been sneezing a lot in the mornings, probably because of the cold weather. I've also been feeling some heaviness in my head. When I blow my nose by pinching it shut, I hear this ticking sound near my nose. It even happens when I'm just doing normal activities. Does this sound like a sinus infection to you? Could it be because of the cold? I'm really curious and a bit worried about what's going on.

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.
