I've noticed this lump on my left tonsil that's been there for about 2 years now. It's painless, but I've got these tonsil stones. I'm really not sure what's going on. I should mention that I'm a smoker too. Should I be worried, or is this something that can just happen?

Question

I'm really worried about my brother. He's been dealing with a nasal blockage for months now after recovering from Covid. He tested negative and was fine for a bit after vaccination, but now he can't breathe properly through his nose and has to breathe through his mouth, especially at night. It's affecting his sleep a lot. He quit smoking recently after a long habit, and his PFT results were okay, but he's still not feeling well. What could be causing this ongoing congestion?

Question

I've got a bit of a cold, and every time I yawn, I hear this mild crackling in my ears. It's starting to worry me. Do you know what might be causing this, and could you recommend a good ear cleaning solution?

Question

I'm feeling really under the weather with a bad case of winter cold and congestion. There are so many tablets out there, and I'm just not sure which one is the best for quick relief. Could you suggest something effective for these symptoms, something to tackle this sardi jukam quickly? Also, are there any side effects I should be worried about?
