I'm really worried about my brother. He was sleeping, and suddenly woke up with a sore throat. When he tried to cough, blood started coming out and it wouldn't stop for over an hour. It was pretty scary. Then, the same thing happened again after a week. What could be causing this, and should we be concerned?

I'm wondering if it's okay to rinse my mouth with fresh water after using Betadine for gargling. Also, if I can't rinse, is it safe to swallow the saliva that comes after gargling, because I read somewhere it might cause thyroid issues? And how long should I wait before eating or drinking anything post-gargling?

There is no such specific indication do it in your comfortable way.

I've been having some trouble with my nostrils. One of them is always blocked while the other one opens up, and then it sometimes switches. It's making it really hard to breathe through both nostrils at the same time, and it's making me feel really lazy. I'm worried it might be a sign of something more serious or could turn into a major problem. Could you give me some advice on what might be going on and what I should do?

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?

share me reports so that i can elaborate about your symptoms
