I've quit smoking about 40 days ago, and in the beginning, I had a lot of ENT pain, stomach issues, a really bad cough, and it felt heavy when I breathed. Things have gotten a bit better, but I'm still having throat pain, some swelling behind my ear, heaviness in my chest, and it hurts when I swallow, plus there's ear pain too. Are these normal withdrawal symptoms, or could it be something else I should worry about?

I woke up today and when I cleared my throat and spit, I noticed a small amount of blood mixed with it. There were also some tiny bubbles, kind of dark red or brownish, still stuck in my throat. I'm really worried because I'm only 18 and haven't had any major health issues before. I do get GERD pretty often and have been feeling some throat discomfort recently, probably because I've been eating a lot of ice cream. Im not dealing with any coughing, though. When I saw those blood streaks in my spit, I got really scared. Could this be something serious?
It sounds like you may be experiencing some irritation or inflammation in your throat, possibly aggravated by your history of GERD and recent consumption of ice cream. The presence of blood in your saliva can be alarming, but it may not always indicate a serious issue. However, it is important to address this symptom promptly. I recommend you take over-the-counter antacids like Tums or Maalox to help with your GERD symptoms. Additionally, you can use a throat soothing syrup like Benadryl Cough Syrup to alleviate the discomfort in your throat. Make sure to stay hydrated and avoid consuming foods that may further irritate your throat. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

My mom has two vocal cord nodules and her voice isn't clear. An ENT specialist in Moradabad is recommending surgery, but I'm wondering if there's any way to treat this without going for an operation. Are there other options we can try first?
Yes, there are definitely non-surgical options to try before considering surgery for vocal cord nodules. Voice therapy, vocal rest, and sometimes medications can be effective in managing these nodules and improving voice quality.
