I'm experiencing some issues with my nose lately. It feels really itchy, and there's been more dirt buildup than usual, which even caused it to bleed once. Today, I noticed there's an extra muscle growth inside my nose that hurts when I touch it. I also find it hard to be in cold weather, and sometimes my eyes tear up for no apparent reason. I don't have sinus issues though. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

Your symptoms could be related to nasal polyps, allergic rhinitis AND keep the nose moisturized, avoid irritants, and consult with an ENT specialist for further evaluation and treatment. They can help diagnose the cause of the muscle growth and any underlying issues.

My grandpa's over 80 and he's got an ear infection. He's been taking zifi 200 for a couple of days now, but he's started feeling a heaviness in his head, can't hear too well, and there's some watery pus coming from his ear. I'm kind of worried and not sure if we should keep giving him the zifi. What do you think?

Its important to stop Zifi for now and contact his doctor immediately. His symptoms could be related to side effects from the medication, the infection not responding as expected, or other complications, and his doctor can help determine the best course of action.
