Question

I'm really concerned about my 5-year-old. He's been snoring a lot, and every time the weather changes even a little, he gets a cold, cough, and sometimes a fever. One doctor mentioned something about getting an X-ray to check for an adenoid issue, and now an ENT specialist is suggesting surgery. I'm worried about going through with surgery at such a young age. Do you think it's the right move? And if we do decide on surgery, which hospital would you recommend for something like this?

Question

I'm dealing with a lot of discomfort because I chewed a pudin hara tablet without water, and now my throat feels really irritated and swollen. Swallowing water has become quite difficult. What should I do to get some relief from this? Can you help?

Question

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?

Question

I'm getting really worried because for the last 20 days I've been feeling super uncomfortable near my esophagus when I swallow saliva or food. I'm taking 4 doses of pansec, monocef, and metrogyl, but there's been no improvement. The doctor said it's tonsillitis after just a physical exam. Could there be something else going on? Looking forward to your insight.
