I'm really worried because I swallowed a chicken bone during dinner and now it's stuck in my throat. It's super irritating and I can't figure out how to get it out. What should I do to deal with this?

If it is lodged in the throat it would cause severe pain and many other worse symptoms visit your ENT doctor for evaluation and follow up.

I'm experiencing pain on the right side of my jaw near my ear, and I already went to see a dentist. He told me theres nothing wrong with my teeth, but the pain hasn't gone away. I'm a bit worried about what might be causing this discomfort. Could it be something other than a dental issue? What should I do next?

The pain you are experiencing near your ear and jaw could be due to temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ). You can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen (Advil) 400mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain relief. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the area and doing gentle jaw exercises may help alleviate the discomfort. If the pain persists, you may need to see a specialist for further evaluation and management.

I'm feeling some discomfort in my ear and chest, which has been going on for the past couple of days. The weird thing is, it only lasts for about 20 or 30 minutes, and then it just goes away like nothing happened. Should I be worried about this, or is it just some random thing that might sort itself out?

Usually there is no relation between those, visit ENT doctor for appropriate treatment.

I've been experiencing a problem lately. After wearing a mask for 12 hours, I've noticed my nose starts bleeding, but everything seems normal when I'm not wearing it. What could be causing this issue? Could the mask be affecting something with my nose?

Nosebleeds can be triggered by various factors, and wearing a mask for an extended period of time can lead to dryness and irritation of the nasal passages, making them more prone to bleeding. To help prevent nosebleeds while wearing a mask, you can use a saline nasal spray to keep the nasal passages moist. Additionally, you can apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly inside the nostrils before putting on the mask to help protect the delicate nasal skin.
