I've been having neck pain since last week and even had a fever for one night. When I sleep, I usually have some discomfort, so I tried going without a pillow, which helped for a few days. I've also been sleeping under a fan at night. Today, I noticed a lump in my tonsil area on the left side of my neck, and theres pain on the right side, but the swelling is only on the left. I'm really curious and a bit worried about what might be causing this and how I can treat it. Any insights you can provide?

Fever that lasts for several days. Difficulty swallowing or breathing. If the lump gets larger or more painful over time. If there are any new lumps or unexplained symptoms that arise. get it evaluated by a doctor

View allI'm dealing with a recurring ulcer that always seems to pop up in the same spot, and it's getting pretty big. At the same time, the lymph node on that side swells up too, and this has happened more than a couple of times over the past six months. I'm really worried it might be mouth cancer. How can I find out what's going on? What do you think?
it could be GERD - Don't skip meals, you may not feel like eating but in such conditions you should have the reduced amount in frequent intervals(i.e. 3 square meals broken down to 5 or 6 as you can tolerate) and slowly increase as you get better. - Reduce Avoid spicy,fried, fatty, junk and oily food - Avoid Limit drinking coffee, tea and carbonated drinks to once a day - Exercise regularly - Increase daily intake of water to 3 liters - AvoidStop smoking and drinking if you have the habit - Reduce stress through methods such as yogameditation. - Avoid painkillers as it will increase your gastric problems at this moment.

I'm looking for some advice regarding my mom's snoring issue. She's 54 and has been struggling with snoring at night for quite some time now. Do you know of any effective anti-snoring tablets or medicines that might help? I'm really worried about her getting a good night's sleep.
Persistent sore throat can be concerning. Given your smoking history and recent cessation, consider: - Post-nasal drip or acid reflux irritating the throat - Dry air or allergies exacerbating discomfort - Residual inflammation from previous infection To alleviate dryness and discomfort: - Stay hydrated with plenty of water - Use a humidifier to add moisture to the air - Suck on lozenges or cough drops to stimulate saliva production - Avoid spicy or acidic foods and drinks Consult your doctor for further guidance and to rule out any underlying conditions.
