I've been having a rough time with my throat lately. About two weeks ago, I had strep throat and got antibiotics for it, but even after finishing them, this cough just won't quit. Now my throat's starting to hurt again, I'm coughing up this brown-yellow phlegm, and I'm running a fever with a headache. It's so bad that I almost cough until I want to throw up. I'm stuck wondering if you can get strep throat again so soon, or if maybe it's something else entirely. What do you think?

View allI'm dealing with some pretty bad swelling just below the right side of my jaw, and I'm wondering if it's because of tonsilitis. Is this something serious? The pain in my throat is terrible, and swallowing is almost unbearable right now. I've started on augmentin, reswas, and hexidime gargle on my doctor's advice. Any ideas on how long this swelling might last or if I should be more worried?

Can smoking cigarettes lead to swollen lymph nodes in my neck or behind my ear? I've noticed some swelling and I'm getting a bit concerned it might be linked to my smoking habit.
Usually no relation between smoking and your condition, visit general Physician for appropriate treatment.

I've had surgery on my ear because there was this small hole, and before that, my ear kept getting wet. It's been 15 days since the surgery, and everything seemed fine, even though I had this heartbeat sound in my ear for the first 45 days. After 8 days, they took the dressing off, and it all seemed normal. But now, on the 14th day post-surgery, there's this non-stop vibrating noise in my ear. Does this mean my surgery didnt work as it should have? It was okay for over two months, and now this. What could be going on?
After surgery such as tympanoplasty it is common to have symptoms such as your for atleast three weeks. It is not really abnormal. Complete recovery and healing may take upto three months. Unless pus starts coming out of your ears, you need not worry much
