I've been dealing with a persistent runny nose for almost a year now that just keeps coming back. What medicine could I take for this? It's really becoming frustrating at this point.

Your symptoms suggest:

  1. Post-COVID-19 complications (e.g., otitis media, sinusitis)
  2. Acid reflux (GERD)
  3. Anxiety-related symptoms
  4. Possible pulmonary issues (e.g., bronchitis, pneumonia)

Consult your doctor or a specialist (ENT, pulmonologist, or gastroenterologist) for a thorough evaluation and guidance.

In the meantime, consider:

  • Staying hydrated
  • Using a humidifier
  • Elevating your head while sleeping
  • Avoiding irritants (e.g., smoke, dust)

my hearing has been really muffled lately and i think it might be glue ear ive heard about grommet surgery but im not sure if i need it or if theres other options i should try first

If you suspect glue ear and are concerned about muffled hearing, it's best to consult a doctor or audiologist. While grommet surgery (myringotomy with grommet insertion) can be a solution for persistent glue ear, it's not always the first step. Other options include observation, medications (like antibiotics or decongestants), and temporary use of hearing aids.

I've had this cold and cough going on since last Thursday, and my doctor put me on Azitab 500 for five days. I took a Covid test on Monday, and thankfully it came back negative. But now, since Tuesday, I can't smell or taste anything properly. It's frustrating because all I can taste is this constant sour flavor. Do you think I should get tested for Covid again?

Patient is advised to continue tab azitab 500mg for 5 days.

I've been experiencing bitterness in my saliva for the past two days. It was really noticeable this morning before I brushed my teeth. What could be causing this weird taste?

That could be due to alterations in taste,it's not that your saliva is bitter it's your taste sensation,no need to worry take Bvon tablet for a week and consume balanced diet,if it's becoming worse visit ENT doctor for appropriate treatment.
