I've been dealing with something really weird and it's got me a bit concerned. So, a few times now, I've coughed up this big, white, cheese-like chunk that smells terrible. I had to vomit a few times to get it out, and it's left me with some congestion in my throat. It was massive, white, and I'm not sure if it's coming from my stomach or somewhere in my throat. I haven't had any cheese or paneer recently, so I'm puzzled. There's no pain, fever, or anything like that, but I'm unsure if it could be a tonsil stone, though it was really big. Any ideas on what's happening here?

View allI've noticed that my uvula seems quite large and kind of pointy at the end. Sometimes it feels like there's something stuck in my throat. Could this be causing some nasal blockage? I'm wondering if I might need surgery for this.
If uvula size is very large and pointy and causing symptoms like feeling something stuck in your throat and nose blockage, it may require surgical intervention. One common surgery for this condition is uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP). However, the decision for surgery should be made after a thorough evaluation by an Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) specialist. They may also recommend medications such as corticosteroids to reduce inflammation and swelling. It is important to seek medical advice for proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

I've been dealing with allergic rhinitis since 2006 and usually take allercet tablets when needed, sometimes with flomist nasal spray though it doesn't always work. I'm worried about long-term side effects of taking allercet regularly - are there any risks? Mornings are the worst with constant sneezing, runny nose and itchy red eyes. The allercet makes me feel drowsy too. Are there better treatment options or even surgery that could help me live more normally without these symptoms
Long-term Allercet use may cause drowsiness; consider immunotherapy or consulting an ENT for possible surgical correction of chronic allergic rhinitis.

My ears feel really blocked up because of a cold, and it's really messing with my hearing. I'm already on some meds for the cold, but what can I do to fix the ear problem? It's kind of concerning.
To resolve your blocked ears due to cold and improve your hearing, you can try using over-the-counter nasal decongestants like Sudafed (pseudoephedrine) or Afrin (oxymetazoline) spray. These medications can help reduce the congestion in your Eustachian tubes and improve airflow, which may help relieve the blockage in your ears. You can also try using a warm compress on your ears to help alleviate the discomfort and promote drainage. Additionally, staying hydrated and getting plenty of rest can also help your body fight off the cold and reduce congestion.
