I've been dealing with sinus issues for almost 25 years, and it seems to get worse whenever the climate changes. I've been using Nosikind drops for my nose, which helps a bit but not completely. It usually starts with a scratchy throat, and by the next day, I have a runny nose, body aches, and sometimes a fever. I've tried so many medications but they only seem to work for a short time before my symptoms come back. What else can I do to manage these symptoms better?

View allI've noticed that each time I bend over, drops of water seem to leak from my right nostril. It happens about 35 drops on average, and this pattern repeats every 15 to 20 days. Should I be worried about this, or is it something common?

I'm getting really worried because for the last 20 days I've been feeling super uncomfortable near my esophagus when I swallow saliva or food. I'm taking 4 doses of pansec, monocef, and metrogyl, but there's been no improvement. The doctor said it's tonsillitis after just a physical exam. Could there be something else going on? Looking forward to your insight.
A blocked nostril can be quite uncomfortable! Given your symptoms, possible causes include: 1. _Deviated septum_: A crooked partition between the nostrils. 2. _Nasal polyps_: Growths in the nasal lining. 3. _Chronic sinusitis_: Inflammation of the sinuses. 4. _Allergies_: Seasonal or environmental allergies. 5. _Foreign object_: Something lodged in the nostril. To alleviate your symptoms, try: 1. _Nasal saline irrigation_: Rinse your nasal passages with a saline solution. 2. _Humidifiers_: Add moisture to the air to ease congestion. 3. _Steam inhalation_: Breathe in warm, moist air to loosen mucus. Consult an _ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) specialist_ for a thorough examination and diagnosis. They may recommend: 1. _Nasal endoscopy_: A flexible tube with a camera to visualize the nasal passages. 2. _Imaging tests_: CT or MRI scans to rule out underlying conditions. 3. _Medications_: Decongestants, antihistamines, or steroids to alleviate symptoms. Seek medical attention to breathe easy again!

I'm really concerned about a lump I've noticed slightly behind where my left tonsil was removed about 8 years ago. It doesn't hurt and seems to be the same color as the rest of my throat. I don't have any trouble eating, but when I dry swallow or just swallow saliva, it feels like there's phlegm stuck in my throat. It's been there for a couple of months now, and I'm just so aware of it all the time. Is it something I should be worried about, like throat cancer? I've attached a picture too.
No need to worry, that could be normal lymphnodes or mucus retention cyst, visit ENT doctor for evaluation and appropriate management
