I've been having this cough on and off where I feel like something's stuck in my throat. Sometimes, when I cough, there are these tiny clear balls that come up. Its not constant, but it keeps coming back every few days, and I'm really tired of it. What could be causing this, and how can I get it to stop?

I'm worried because yesterday I made a mistake and used hand sanitizer on my face and inside my nostrils when something dirty fell on me. I know I shouldn't have done it, and now I'm a bit concerned about any possible issues. I'm having a slight headache and the air I breathe through my nose feels warm. Could the alcohol in the hand sanitizer be drying out my nostrils? Could there be any side effects from this?
No there are no such side effects,no need to worry, take rest you will be fine.

My nose is almost always blocked and I use otrivin every day. Doctors say I have a swollen nose bone and need minor surgery, but is there any other option? I feel like I might be addicted to otrivin what should I do?
Your nose blockage, Otrivin overuse, and a swollen nose bone that requires minor surgery are all connected issues. The frequent use of Otrivin, a nasal decongestant, can lead to rebound congestion (rhinitis medicamentosa), where the nasal passages become more swollen and congested when the medication's effect wears off. This prolonged congestion can also lead to structural changes, such as a swollen nose bone, which may require surgery to correct.
