My nose feels really dry, and I can even feel the dryness when I'm breathing. It's uncomfortable, and I've tried putting on some Vaseline, but I'm not sure if that's enough. Is there anything else I should be doing to help with this dryness?

I recommend using a saline nasal spray to help moisturize your nasal passages. You can also try using a humidifier in your room to add moisture to the air. If the dryness persists, you can use a nasal gel like Rhinase to help lubricate your nasal passages.

I'm curious about this recurring pain I've been experiencing around my throat and jaw. It happens about once a month and it really hurts, especially when I touch it from outside or move my head. A doctor mentioned it might be due to tonsillitis, but I don't have that sore throat feeling inside. It's only on the outside of my throat and jaw area. Could this really be tonsillitis, or could it be something else entirely?
Detection of thyroid nodules can be concerning. Since your thyroid function tests (TFTs) are normal, it's a good sign. Next steps: - Consult an endocrinologist or a thyroid specialist. - Discuss Fine-Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) or ultrasound-guided biopsy to determine the nature of the nodules. - Follow-up appointments will help monitor the nodules' size and characteristics. Stay calm, and follow your doctor's guidance.
