I've been waking up the past couple of mornings feeling like my throat is really blocked, and when I cough, there's some blood. Should I be worried about this, and what can I do to feel better?

That could be normal secretions with capillary bleed,no need to worry, maintain oral hygiene and consume warm water before bed,if it's becoming more frequent, visit ENT doctor for appropriate treatment.

I've been diagnosed with sinus issues and my doctor recommended an endoscope surgery. Will this procedure completely fix my problem, and are there any common side effects like facial swelling or other complications I should know about?

I'm really worried because about 6 months ago, I had severe vertigo and unfortunately, it's returning. Back then, I was told it was BPPV and the Epley maneuver worked like magic. But now, I'm getting that dizzy spinning sensation again and there's this weird sound in my left ear. I've already gone through audiometry and a brain MRI, and thankfully, those tests came back normal. I'm stuck and not sure what to do next. Do you have any suggestions or ideas on what might be going on?

I've been dealing with this tinnitus for about 9-10 months now. The first doctor I saw said my left ear looked a bit dull and gave me a decongestant, but that didn't really help. Then another ENT mentioned something about my ear being retracted or RTM. Since then, I've seen multiple doctors and have been on multivitamins and ginkgo. I've got a few questions though. Can RTM stick around for nearly a year, and if it does, could this be the reason for ear pain when I gently use earbuds? Also, when I do the Valsalva maneuver in the morning, I sometimes feel something watery in my ear. This only happens the first time when I wake up. Besides taking all these meds, are there other ways to deal with it? It's hard to sleep with this constant noise, kinda like the sound an old TV makes, and it's there all the time, fluctuating like a stream. Is using warm oil in my ear a good idea? Could an infection be causing all this? I'm really stressed out by all this.

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.
