I've noticed this small, hard lump kind of thing near my jawline. It doesn't hurt on its own, but touching it is really painful. I also saw two hairs growing there. Should I see an ENT doctor or a dentist for this?

I've been dealing with constant phlegm in my throat for quite a while now. I hardly ever cough, but the phlegm just keeps showing up every day. I don't feel weak or anything, but it's really starting to annoy me. There's no reduction even though I don't have a cold. What could be causing this and how can I get some relief?

it can be post nasal drip due to allergy or chronic sinusitis.
