I've been dealing with red bumps on the back of my throat and tongue for a week now. They're itchy but not really painful. It's winter and everyone's got a cold at work, so I ended up with a mild cold too, and a couple of nights of low fever. I've also been experiencing loose stools. This happened once before, about 8 months ago, when I caught a cold. Should I be worried about the red bumps coming back? What could be causing this, and are there any remedies I should try?

View allI've been dealing with frequent sinusitis that worsens my asthma, and I'm wondering if surgery for a deviated septum could help. I'm tired of relying on meds like cetirizine and montelukast and have started jal neti and vaman for relief. Would surgery actually make a difference or are there other options I should consider?
Yes, surgery to correct a deviated septum (septoplasty) can potentially make a difference in managing your sinusitis and its impact on your asthma. It's a common procedure to improve airflow and reduce nasal congestion. However, it's crucial to consider other options and determine if surgery is the right fit for your individual situation.

I'm experiencing some ear discomfort that seems to flare up mostly at night. I've also been having this persistent cough and feel like my hearing isn't as sharp as it used to be. Could you give me some advice on what I should do about this?
Start using ear drops like Otek AC or Otocin O 2 drops 3 times a day, an anti-allergic like Cetrizine tablet at night and if you are not hypertensive, a decongestant like Otrivin nose drops 2 drops 3 times. Otherwise, steam inhalation is safe! You can take an analgesic like Combiflam, if the pain is severe! Next Steps Consultant an ENT if the symptoms or cough persist

I'm feeling really under the weather and have all the symptoms of strep throat, but my family is saying it's just a seasonal cold. I'm not so sure though. Could you help me figure out if it might actually be strep?
