I'm really worried about this sore throat I keep getting every morning for the past few days. I make sure to drink water before bed and sometimes even in the middle of the night, but it doesn't seem to help. I've noticed I mostly sleep with my mouth closed too. Could you give me some advice on what might help? Also, I don't drink tea or coffee before bed, just so you know.

It sounds like you might be experiencing dryness in your throat, possibly due to mouth breathing during sleep or environmental factors. Try using a humidifier at night to keep the air moist, and consider drinking a glass of water before bed. If the issue persists, it might be worth checking for allergies or mild reflux, which can also cause throat irritation.

I'm kind of worried because I had a cold and in a rush, I accidentally put Iodex in my nose. I quickly realized it was a mistake and washed it out with soap and water, but then my nose started bleeding a bit. Is this a serious issue, or should I be okay since the bleeding stopped quickly?

No need to nothing serious complication would happen,but do not repeat it as you say you had one episode of bleeding,visit ENT doctor for evaluation
