I have this lump on my neck that I've noticed for about a month now. I've already done FNAC twice. The first result said it was lymphadenitis and the second one mentioned something about a reactive lymphoid. I'm really concerned about whether I might need surgery for this. Could you please advise?

Surgery is usually not required unless there are complications or the swelling does not improve with conservative treatment. I would recommend taking a course of antibiotics such as Amoxicillin. Additionally, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like Acetaminophen (500mg, as needed) to help with any discomfort. Make sure to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

View allI've been having a sore throat for about three weeks, along with ear pain and swelling on one side of my neck. I've also got tonsil stones, super dry mouth, and I noticed red bumps at the back of my throat and on my tongue. Theres a bit of thrush too. Could all of this be related to candida?
It looks like acute tonsillitis with pharyngitis.

I'm usually a really good sleeper, but lately, I've noticed something a bit worrying. When I wake up, there's blood mixed with my saliva. It's only four or five drops, but it's still concerning. I know my blood pressure has been at 130 over 87. Could these two things be connected, or is there something else I should be worried about?
One possible cause could be gum disease or gingivitis. To address this issue, you can use a mouthwash containing chlorhexidine to help reduce inflammation and prevent infection. Additionally, you can take Vitamin C supplements to support gum health. Regarding your blood pressure of 13087, it is slightly elevated. You can manage this by making lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, exercising regularly, and maintaining a healthy weight. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I'm having a bit of a hard time with my head feeling heavy and one of my ears being blocked for the last couple of days. It's kind of bothersome, and it's been causing some pain around my forehead and eyes too. Ive been told I have raised IgE levels, and I'm already using a nasal corticosteroid as part of my treatment. Could this be related? I'd appreciate some guidance on what might be going on.
