I'm dealing with some heaviness in my head and neck and my ear's in pain too, plus Ive got these breathing issues. A couple of weeks ago, I was in an Ola cab and felt chilly, then got rashes. The coconut oil and camphor helped the rashes, but now I've got ear pain and a sense of heaviness in the back of my head. My GP gave me anti-allergic meds that didnt quite help, so I saw an Orthopaedic doctor who checked my vitamin D and B12 levels and prescribed more meds, including anti-allergic ones like Telekast. After a few days, I wasnt feeling much better, so I went to an ENT doctor who did some thyroid and CBC tests along with three different ear tests. Everything looked okay except for a blocked tube between my ear and nose. Now I've got 15 days of meds and exercises to do. I remember having similar issues a few months ago after applying hair dye, but they eventually went away. Im just not experiencing much relief this time. What else can I do?

So, this weird thing happens to me twice a year, and I'm kinda worried. Every time I catch a cold, after the first day, I just start salivating A LOT and it doesn't stop. It's like I'm drooling non-stop! I've tried different medications, but nothing seems to work. The drooling just does its thing and goes away after about 3-4 days. Is there something serious going on here? And if there are any meds that can help with this, that would be awesome.

a cold can cause excess salivation, also known as hypersalivation. This is because a cold can lead to nasal congestion, which can cause you to breathe through your mouth more. Breathing through your mouth can make it easier for saliva to escape. if excess salivation is due to cold then treat the cause
