I've been noticing a bad smell when I cough, but I don't have any cold or flu symptoms, and my throat doesn't hurt at all. I went to see a doctor, and they mentioned it might be submucous fibrosis. What should I do about it?

I'm having this watery discharge coming from my ear for the past day. It all began with really bad pain and a lot of pressure, but then after a while, the pain slightly eased up, and that's when the drainage started. Should I be worried about this?

I've been smoking a bit of weed for the past four years, not a lot, but consistently. Lately, I've had a cold, and now every morning I wake up with a really dry throat and this burning sensation. I'm not sure if it's just because of the cold or if the weed is causing it too. Is there a risk of developing serious throat issues from using weed frequently?

Yes its because of weed you are facing dryness,stop using weed and stay hydrated .
