I've been dealing with a severe congested nose and a persistent cough for about a week now, and even though I'm on medicine for the cough, there's no fever. My nose is completely blocked, I have sinus pain, and I'm experiencing a head cold as well. But what really worries me is this new bubble-like sound I hear when I breathe out, especially if I'm lying down. Is this strange noise a typical side effect of having a congested nose and sinus issues? Ive always managed to get over colds and coughs pretty quickly before, so this is new for me. Is it something I should be really concerned about?

View allI'm taking Terol LA 4 mg, and a few hours later, my mouth feels super dry, and my throat gets really tight. It's making it hard for me to eat. What should I do about this?
To help with these side effects, you can try sucking on sugar-free candies or chewing sugar-free gum to stimulate saliva production. Additionally, staying hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day can also help alleviate dry mouth. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult your doctor for further evaluation and possible adjustment of your medication dosage.

I'm experiencing a burning feeling in my left nostril, and alongside it, there's a mild ache on the upper lid of my eye. There's also this pain around my left eyebrow that's been nagging me. Do you have any idea what could be causing this?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of sinusitis, which is inflammation of the sinuses. The burning sensation in your left nostril, mild ache on the upper lid of your eye, and pain in your left eyebrow are all common symptoms of sinusitis. I recommend taking a decongestant like Sudafed (pseudoephedrine) 30mg every 4-6 hours as needed for nasal congestion. Additionally, you can take ibuprofen (Advil) 400mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain relief. Make sure to stay hydrated and consider using a saline nasal spray to help with congestion. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it's important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

What should I do about the tissue stuck in my nostril from a nosebleed? Its not causing any breathing issues, and it doesnt hurt, but it's still stuck up there. Is it safe to leave it until morning?
It sounds like you have a foreign object (tissue paper) stuck in your nose. It is important to remove it to avoid any potential complications. You can try to gently blow your nose to see if that helps dislodge the tissue. If that doesn't work, you should seek medical help to have it safely removed. Leaving it in overnight is not recommended as it can lead to irritation or infection. You can use over-the-counter nasal decongestant spray to help reduce swelling and make it easier to remove the tissue.
