I've been dealing with thick, sticky mucus in my nose and throat constantly, and now there's this weird cracking sound between my ear and nose. I've attached my CT scan do you think I should consider surgery right away or wait a few more months until the pandemic settles down? I'm not sure how urgent this is.

I'm just a little concerned because while playing with my daughter, her head accidentally bumped into my wife's nose. It hurt her on the left side, but she said she felt fine after a bit. However, later at night, she noticed some blood spots when she blew her nose. There's no pain or constant bleeding, but the blood spots got us a bit worried. Is that something normal?

I'm dealing with this annoying dryness in my throat and mouth every early morning around 4 or 5 am since November. I saw a doctor and had my blood sugar tested through a urine testit was normal. The meds helped for a week, but then the dryness came back. Also, I have this long-term nasal blockage since 2011 after a viral fever. I cant smell much unless my nasal passage clears up or during a cold. Plus, I catch a cold every month or two. I'm confused about who to see for this issue because online it seems like these symptoms could be throat infection, prediabetes, or sinus problems. Could you guide me on which specialist to consult and the right treatment to pursue?
