A lump of tissue came out when I blew my nose today. There was no pain or bleeding, but I'm a little concerned. Should I be worried about this? Is it something serious?

I've been having quite a bit of trouble breathing through my nose. Initially, I went to the doctor, and they recommended surgery for my rhinosinusitis and internal turbinates, so I went ahead with it. But now I'm experiencing even worse issues, like one of my nostrils is completely blockedyou know, I can't even fit a finger inside! I went back, and the doctor mentioned something about a deviated septum. I'm really worried and wondering what could be going on. Is another surgery my only option now, or could there be other treatments or therapies that might help?

if you are having this severe symptoms, proceed for surgery. it is safe and you can feel better

I'm really struggling with having a very low voice and it's been challenging for me to speak loudly in public situations. When I try to raise my voice, I get tired really quickly, like in just a few minutes. It's been tough during meetings because my voice just doesn't carry well. Could you give me some guidance on how to improve my vocal strength or manage this issue better? I'm looking for any tips or advice you might have.

Sure, I've noticed that every time I kiss my partner for more than five minutes, I end up with a sore throat. It's been happening for the last three months, and I'm not sure why. I know I'm prone to tonsil infections - I get them easily from things like outside food, cold drinks, or even lack of sleep. But right now, my main worry is this recurring sore throat after kissing, which hits me within 30 to 60 minutes and sticks around for 4 to 5 days, or sometimes longer. It's been consistent since I first kissed her about three or four months ago. Can you help me figure out what's going on and how to prevent it?

Consider getting tested for streptococcal infections or other bacterialviral causes, and discuss your recurring sore throat issues with an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist or a primary care physician, who may recommend preventive measures such as gargling with salt water, using a humidifier, or taking immune-boosting supplements, and also consider discussing your concerns with your partner, as it's possible that you may be transmitting infections back and forth, and taking steps to maintain good oral hygiene and safe kissing practices.
