I'm dealing with this annoying dryness in my throat and mouth every early morning around 4 or 5 am since November. I saw a doctor and had my blood sugar tested through a urine testit was normal. The meds helped for a week, but then the dryness came back. Also, I have this long-term nasal blockage since 2011 after a viral fever. I cant smell much unless my nasal passage clears up or during a cold. Plus, I catch a cold every month or two. I'm confused about who to see for this issue because online it seems like these symptoms could be throat infection, prediabetes, or sinus problems. Could you guide me on which specialist to consult and the right treatment to pursue?

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've been taking Susten 200 once a day as advised, but I've started feeling dizzy after taking it. Now I'm also experiencing chills and a really bad cough and cold. I'm almost done with the course, just have two tablets left. How long do these side effects usually last, and is there anything I should do to feel better?

Dizziness is the most common side effect of progesterone pills,no need to worry you can continue the medicine and if the symptoms are bothering you much visit your Gynaecologist for alternate medicine.

I've had this beeping sound in my ear for the past few days. It doesn't really hurt, but when people talk, it kind of sounds like a "guyyy" noise in my ear. I'm able to hear voices, but everything feels off. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?

Visit your ENT doctor immediately to remove it,don't make any attempts by yourself to remove it.
