I'm really struggling with this constant cough I've got in my throat; it's there almost all the time and I end up coughing a lot just to clear it. It's getting pretty unbearable for me. Sometimes, I even feel like something is dripping slowly from the top part of my nose. I recently had an NCCT PNS scan done, and my doctor says there's nothing serious going on, just recommended breathing exercises like Pranayam and some jogging, which honestly haven't helped much so far. Before making any more moves, I'd like to get a deeper understanding of what's actually in the report, especially the IMPRESSION part. Can you help explain what the medical findings mean?

my 7-year-old needs a tonsil surgery but I'm worried about safety and long-term effects is it really safe for kids that young also heard some kids get ear and head pain after the surgery how common is that

Tonsil surgery (tonsillectomy) in a 7-year-old is generally considered safe, but it's important to discuss any concerns with your child's doctor. While the procedure is common and has a good safety record, there are potential risks and side effects to be aware of, including ear pain and headaches after surgery.

I've had this small lump on my neck for like 10 months now. I saw an ENT doc who said it's nothing to worry about. He did mention something about surgery, either now or later. My friend's dad had a similar lump, and their doctor insisted on surgery which cost them around 1 lac. Should I be worried about this lump even though there's no pain?

Yours might be a different scenario,do not worry but as your doctor suggested better to get it removed,follow their advice

There's this recurring swelling under my jaw, on the left side, that's been really worrying me. It seems to get hard and painful as it grows. Whenever I take antibiotics, the swelling decreases but never fully goes away, and it pops back up, especially after I eat non-veg food. Could this be something serious? What should I do about it?
