I've been having this weird sensation where it feels like my uvula is always touching my tongue. It's like there's something stuck in my throat and I keep feeling the need to swallow it down. I dont have any trouble swallowing or issues with my voice right now, but its getting a bit uncomfortable. What could be causing this?

I'm experiencing a weird sound in my right ear every now and then. It kind of sounds like a motor running or a continuous 'gu gu gu' noise. I can't quite figure it out. It mostly happens when I'm trying to sleep, and sometimes it just stops on its own. I'm really confused about what's going on. Any idea what this could be?

The whooshing sound in sync with your heartbeat is likely due to: 1. Pulsatile tinnitus 2. Eustachian tube dysfunction 3. Vascular issues (e.g., abnormal blood flow) Consult an ENT specialist or an audiologist for a thorough evaluation and diagnosis.

I've been noticing yellow mucus when I sneeze, and it's weird because I don't actually have a cold right now. It's been a while, like three months, dealing with this stuffy nose. I'm a smoker and I've never had issues with my sinuses before. Should I be worried about this? What could be causing it?

yes u can use it, visit ur physician for apprpropriate managent

I've been smoking and drinking on and off, and about 10 days ago, I had a really bad throat pain and cold fever. My doctor gave me Ampoxin 625 mg, and it completely went away. But I've noticed that whenever I masturbate at night, by the next morning, I've got this awful sore throat. It's been like this for 10 days straight. Is there some connection between masturbation and sore throats?
