I'm a 24-year-old guy and I've always been really skinnylike, my whole life. I'm around 55 kg, and nothing I've tried in terms of medicines or treatments seems to help me gain weight. I've also got a couple of other issues. My left ear veins aren't working right, so I can't hear out of it, and I'm starting to go bald even though I'm pretty young. Plus, I have this bad habit of chewing tobacco, which I know can't be helping. I'm really eager to figure out how to get healthier and maybe even bulk up a bit. Do you have any advice or suggestions on what I could do?

I'm really puzzled about this swollen lymph node I've had for 4 months. It's not changing in size at all and sometimes it hurts around my neck where it's swollen. Otherwise, I'm feeling healthy but I've noticed some weird stuff lately. Occasionally, I find what looks like black hair in my phlegm and at times, it's this greenish or greyish color. Plus, there's a kind of pressure in my throat and around my shoulder or neck blade when I take a deep breath. This all seemed to start after I got Covid in April. I also experience daily neck and back pain, probably because of my job, but I'm not completely sure if it's related. I'm just trying to understand what could be causing the swollen lymph node. Could you help me figure this out?

I'm really concerned about this ongoing soreness and scratchy feeling in my throat that I've had for the last four months. I've seen several ENT specialists, and each one seems to have a different take on it. One mentioned acid reflux but I don't actually feel any heartburn, while another pointed to post-nasal drip and after a CT scan said I have ethmoid sinusitis and inflammation in my throat. He mentioned surgery might be an option if medication doesn't help, which I'm really not eager for. Yet another doctor said it's just an infection, but that doesnt seem to explain everything, and I can't get rid of this nagging feeling. I went down a Google rabbit hole and read about persistent throat issues being linked to cancer. Could just a sore throat really mean something as serious as cancer?
