I'm having a lot of discomfort at the back of my tongue. It's sore, and I'm in quite a bit of pain. I've noticed it's turning a bluish color with some lines and spots. I'm really concerned and not sure what's going on. Could you help me figure out what might be causing this?

So, I'm really worried about my cousin who's been dealing with mouth ulcers a lot. My family's regular doctor mentioned maybe seeing an ENT specialist, but I'm not quite sure if that's the right path. She's tried dietary supplements and a bunch of other stuff, but nothing seems to help. Now the ulcers just won't go away. Who do you think would be the right specialist for this?

You can visit ENT doctor for evaluation and appropriate treatment.

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?

No it is not

I've been dealing with this constant coughing, headache, and runny nose, especially at night, and it's been really bothering me. I'm wondering if it's safe to take Azithromycin and Montek LC on the same day to help with these symptoms. Could this combo help, or should I be worried about any side effects?

That looks like sinusitis, you can take both tablets on same day no problem.
