I've been having frequent nosebleeds for the past three days, and yesterday it happened three times. Should I be worried about this, and is there anything specific I should do or avoid?

Frequent nosebleeds can be concerning. It is important to determine the underlying cause. In the meantime, you can use over-the-counter nasal decongestant spray like Afrin. Apply 2-3 sprays in the affected nostril every 12 hours. Additionally, you can use a saline nasal spray like Ocean Spray to keep the nasal passages moist. Apply 2-3 sprays in each nostril 2-3 times a day. If the nosebleeds persist, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

If cotton bud is stuck inside then you need to get it removed by a specialist

I'm a bit concerned because I don't have a cough, but every morning after brushing my teeth, I notice a tiny dark blood clot when I phlegm from my throat. It's only happened once, and since then I've been phlegming from my throat with no more blood. I went to see an ENT specialist and they said it was clinically normal, but I'm still a little worried. Do you think this is something I should be concerned about or is it really nothing to worry about?

I've been noticing these bubbles at the back of my throat and on the back of my tongue, close to where my throat starts. Sometimes it feels like there's something stuck back there, but it's not painful, just kind of uncomfortable. I've tried using salt water, but it doesn't seem to do much. Any idea what I should do about this?
You may be experiencing symptoms of oral thrush, which is a fungal infection in the mouth. I recommend using an antifungal medication like Clotrimazole. Additionally, maintaining good oral hygiene by brushing your teeth and tongue regularly can help improve your symptoms. If the discomfort persists, consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.
