I'm getting a bit concerned because my mom has been snoring really loudly for the past six months, and the sounds are, well, kind of unusual. Could this be a sign of thyroid issues, or might it be something else altogether?

I've been having some discomfort around my jaw, right beneath my left ear lobe. It's not constant, but I really notice it when I press on it. There's no issue when I'm talking or opening my mouth wide, and it doesn't hurt when I swallow either. What could this be? Should I be concerned?

That could be TM joint pain or muscle catch,no need to worry give some time it will self adjust,do not attempt to massage the area,if its becoming worse visit your ENT doctor for evaluation and appropriate treatment.

I've been having trouble swallowing food for the last couple of days, and I'm worried because I can actually feel my epiglottis when I touch behind my tongue. It's not really affecting my breathing, but swallowing feels weird. Could this be something serious?

Do not worry, visit you ENT doctor for evaluation and appropriate treatment.
