I'm really struggling with this dry throat and persistent cough. It feels like I've tried everything and just can't seem to shake this tickly cough. What can I do to finally get some relief?

To alleviate a dry throat and tickly cough, try a multifaceted approach: stay hydrated with warm liquids like tea or broth, use a humidifier to add moisture to the air, gargle with salt water, suck on lozenges or cough drops,

I've been noticing these holes in my tonsils for a while now, and it seems like they're getting worse. Is this something that happens normally, or should I be thinking about getting my tonsils removed?

It is normal.. Unless you are getting recurrent infection you need not remove

My 2-year-old son was born with an ear pit in his left ear, and it's gotten infected. We've already gone through a 2-week course of antibiotics and used topical ointments, but there's been no change. What should be our next step?

Consult an ENT specialist or a pediatric surgeon for further evaluation and guidance, as recurrent infections in preauricular pits often require surgical excision to prevent future complications; they may recommend imaging tests like ultrasound or MRI to assess the extent of the pit and surrounding tissue, and discuss surgical options to remove the pit and affected tissue.

Hey, I've been having this weird jaw pain right at the hinge, and I think it's a bit swollen, but only on the left side. I just had some dental work done on that side because of a cavity, and now it hurts to open my mouth wide. This all started last night, but for about five days before that, I'd wake up with a sore throat, a runny nose, and mucus. Strangely, during the day, I feel fine, but at night it all comes back until morning. There's also this occasional ringing noise in my left ear, like a beep, and it's around 814kHz or something. It's more obvious when I cover or muffle my ear. Any idea what's going on?
