I noticed a small lump under my jaw a few days ago. It doesn't hurt but looks strange. Could this be something serious or is surgery the only way to remove it?

Lump under jaw may be reactive node or cyst; not all need surgery but ultrasound or FNAC can confirm nature—see ENT or surgeon for evaluation.

View allI had throat pain a few days ago, and though that's gotten better, I've started having this cough. Also, I noticed a small flap-like skin beneath my tongue, deep in my throat. I think it's my epiglottis. Is it normal to be able to see the epiglottis? I don't seem to have any other symptoms but just wondering if this is something I should be concerned about.
That could be chronic pharyngitis,no need to worry visit your ENT doctor for evaluation and appropriate treatment,consume warm foods and do salt water gargling for a better result.

I've been waking up with my right ear feeling blocked and kinda wet for the past three days. There's this ringing sound in that ear that sticks around all day, which is really starting to bug me. Could you help me figure out what's going on with it?
For dry sinusitis, consider: - Nasal moisturizers: Nasogel, Rhinocort Aqua, or Simply Saline - Humidifiers to add moisture to the air - Increase saline spray usage to 3-4 times a day For swelling and congestion: - Consult an ENT specialist for a proper examination - Consider prescription medications like nasal corticosteroids - Otrivin can be used as needed, but follow usage guidelines Maintain good nasal hygiene and consult your doctor for personalized guidance.
