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.

My eardrum has a hole in it and I heard it's called a ruptured eardrum. I'm not sure whether I should go for medicines or surgery to fix this - which treatment works better and what are the risks of each option?

Most ruptured (perforated) eardrums heal without treatment within a few weeks. Your provider may prescribe antibiotic drops if there's evidence of infection. If the tear or hole in the eardrum doesn't heal by itself, treatment will likely involve procedures to close the tear or hole.

I've noticed that whenever I sneeze, blood mixed with saliva comes out of my mouth. Plus, I often wake up at night with throat pain. It's really concerning me, and I'm curious to know what might be causing this. Any ideas on what's going on or what I should do about it?

This may be caused by various factors such as dry air, allergies, or infections. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try using a humidifier in your room to add moisture to the air, gargling with warm salt water to soothe your throat, and taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen. Additionally, you can use a throat lozenge or spray to help with the throat pain. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm a 26-year-old guy dealing with a high pitch voice that lacks resonance. People often mistake me for a woman over the phone, and it's frustrating. I haven't seen a doctor about this yet, and I'm also dealing with essential tremor. Are there any exercises or treatments that could help with these issues?

It sounds like you may be experiencing voice modulation issues. You can try using voice therapy techniques to improve your voice quality. Additionally, you can use medications like Botox injections to help with essential tremors. For voice modulation, you can try speech therapy exercises and vocal warm-ups. For essential tremors, you can consider taking Propranolol. Remember to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication.
