I've been feeling like there's an air bubble stuck in my throat for the last couple of weeks, and it's not going away. There's also a lump on one of my tonsils and it seems bigger than usual. What could be going on, and should I be concerned?

The persistent air bubble sensation in your throat and the enlarged tonsil lump warrant medical attention; consider consulting an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist

I'm really struggling with a bad cold and my nose is completely blocked. Luckily, I don't have a fever right now. I currently have some crocin cold and flu tablets, but I recently heard that they might be banned by the government. Is it still safe for me to take them? I don't have any other medication on hand.

Yes you can take it and visit doctor for appropriate treatment.

I'm a bit worried because last night while I was eating my meal of rice and fish, my mum brought home takeout from Hardee's. I couldn't resist and took a big bite of the burger along with a spoonful of rice, and soon after, I felt pain in my throat. Do you think this could be something serious, or maybe just a reaction to eating different things together?

This could be due to a variety of reasons, such as irritation from the food you ate or possibly an allergic reaction. To help alleviate the pain and discomfort in your throat, you can try taking an over-the-counter antacid like Tums (dosage: 2 tablets) to help with any acid reflux that may be causing the pain. Additionally, you can also try gargling with warm salt water to help soothe your throat. If the pain persists or worsens, it would be best to seek medical advice.
