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?

I'm really worried about what's going on with me. I woke up on Sunday with a sore throat and now both my tonsils are super swollen, red, and have these white spots all over them. Plus, my uvula has these weird red dots. Swallowing is so painful, and my lymph nodes are really tender. What could be causing all this and should I be worried?
Unsettling ear sounds can be disturbing! The "gu gu gu" or motor-like sound in your right ear could be: 1. *Tinnitus*: A common condition characterized by ringing, buzzing, or other sounds in the ear. 2. *Eustachian tube dysfunction*: The tube connecting the middle ear to the back of the throat might be blocked, causing unusual sounds. 3. *Earwax buildup*: Excess earwax can cause strange noises, especially when lying down. 4. *Middle ear muscle spasms*: Tiny muscles in the middle ear can contract and cause sounds. To alleviate the issue: 1. *Consult an ENT specialist*: For a thorough examination and diagnosis. 2. *Try ear drops*: To help dissolve excess earwax. 3. *Use a white noise machine*: To mask the sound while sleeping. 4. *Avoid loud noises*: And take regular breaks in quiet environments. Keep in mind that these sounds can be intermittent and might resolve on their own. However, it's essential to consult a specialist to rule out any underlying conditions.

I'm experiencing some intense dizziness off and on for about three weeks now, like the room is spinning. My blood pressure is normal at 11972, so I'm puzzled about what's going on. Do you think it could be vertigo? I really could use some quick advice or remedies to help with this.
