I'm having this issue where I start coughing when I talk. It usually kicks in after I've said a couple of sentences and it mainly happens in the evenings. I've also noticed it's kind of seasonal. It feels like my vocal cords are getting irritated, and I end up not being able to continue any discussion. If I stop talking for a while, it gets better, but then it starts all over again when I begin speaking. Any idea what's going on with me?

I'm experiencing this weird sensation where it feels like air is going through my right ear, but only when I'm at home in Bangalore. It's been happening for around 9 months, and recently I've started feeling dizzy, mostly in the evenings. It doesn't happen if I travel to other places, so I'm curious if this is something I should be worried about. What could be causing this?

My 9-year-old has been struggling with tonsillitis for the past week and it's been really tough. Can you tell me more about what the surgery involves for kids this age? I'm worried about how it works and what recovery looks like for them.

It's tough to see your child struggling, but tonsillitis usually resolves on its own within a week or two, especially if it's viral. If your child's condition doesn't improve or if they have any concerning symptoms (like difficulty breathing or swallowing), it's best to consult a doctor
