I've got these sore blister-like things at the back of my throat, and I'm kinda worried. My sister thinks it's strep throat, but someone else mentioned it might be related to something sexual, while another person just said they're blisters. I'm confused and a bit concerned. Could you help me figure out what might be going on?

I've been having this really uncomfortable chest tightness and trouble with breathing. My cardiologist didn't find any heart issues, but I'm also dealing with this weird nasal stuffiness and a heavy feeling from the top of my nose towards the back of my head. On top of that, I feel like something's choking me in my throat, and there's a tightness in my neck. Plus, I get dizzy sometimes. What do you think could be going on? I'm kinda starting to worry.

I've had cervical lymphadenopathy for over 6 years with multiple lumps in my neck that haven't grown much recently. No biopsy or FNAC has been done yet, and I'm unsure if it's serious. I can't afford expensive surgery right now are there any other options to reduce or get rid of these lumps without breaking the bank?

needs P/E for better advice.

I'm feeling a bit worried because I've had this prickly sensation in my throat whenever I swallow or breathe for the last few hours. It's making me really anxious. Could this be something serious, or is it just a minor irritation that will go away on its own?
