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?

My doctor says I need tonsil surgery but I'm really hesitant because I've heard there can be long-term side effects Are there any other treatment options I could try instead of going straight to surgery

This condition may require clinical evaluation to determine the exact cause and treatment. Some cases can be managed conservatively, while others may need surgical intervention depending on size, symptoms, and severity. Regular follow-up is important to monitor progress.

I'm really worried because my baby has had a fever since yesterday. It's strange because only his head feels hot. I've noticed some kind of lymph nodes under his ear too. Should I be concerned and get him medication right away?

Yes when there are reactive lymphnodes you have start a short course of antibiotics,if neglected might lead to recurrence.

I'm still dealing with a runny nose even 25 days after testing positive for COVID. I actually started having this runny nose about a week before my test, so it's been over a month now. Throughout this time, I haven't had any other symptomsjust the runny nose. My doctor suggested I take MontairLC, and I've been on it for five days, but there's been no change. Is a runny nose normal after having COVID, or is this something more serious? Could it be a fungal infection? What should I do next?

It's possible that your runny nose could be related to a post-COVID condition, or it might be a sign of another infection, such as a fungal infection. However, without further evaluation, it's difficult to determine the exact cause.
