I'm dealing with vertigo for the last couple of days and I'm not sure who to see about it. Should I go to a regular doctor or is it better to consult with an ENT specialist? Whats usually the best choice for something like this?

I'm really concerned about my 10-year-old daughter. She has this adenoid issue, and the problem is mainly at night when she starts breathing through her mouth as she sleeps. During the day, everything seems normal. Is there a way to treat this with medicine instead of surgery?

Prolonged mouth breathing would cause Dryness of mouth,dental caries etc., surgical correction is the treatment of choice better plan for surgery.

I 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.
