I'm really worried because my baby has had a fever since yesterday. It's strange because only his head feels hot. I've noticed some kind of lymph nodes under his ear too. Should I be concerned and get him medication right away?

I have a sinus infection and bad headaches because my nose is bent. Is it possible to straighten my nose without surgery? I'm really worried about this

While a deviated septum causing sinus issues and headaches can be bothersome, surgery (septoplasty) is generally the only way to correct a deviated septum. However, managing symptoms with medications and possibly nonsurgical rhinoplasty might provide relief and address the appearance of the nose.

I've been diagnosed with reactive lymphoid hyperplasia for the past couple of months. I'm really concerned and wondering if it's something that can be cured on its own, or if surgery might be necessary. Could you provide some insights on this?

Surgery (usually in the form of a biopsy or excision) may be considered if: The swelling persists for a long time without improvement or becomes very large. The doctor suspects there might be another cause (like lymphoma or another serious condition). The lymph nodes are causing other physical symptoms (such as difficulty swallowing, breathing, or other issues due to the pressure they cause).

I've been dealing with a sore throat and notice redness along with little pimples, but they don't seem to have that yellow stuff. A doctor once suggested I use lorfast Am and it seemed to help. Is it safe to take lorfast Am every day for allergies, or should I wait and only use it when those symptoms start up?
