Question

My ranula mucocele keeps shrinking and refilling but doesn't hurt or cause any issues - is surgery really needed if it's not bothering me? I'm nervous about going under the knife for something that seems harmless right now

Question

I've noticed a small cut on my uvula and I'm really worried about it. I've also been dealing with gas and acidity issues. Could these be related somehow? I'm not taking any meds right now, so I'm wondering what I should do next. Do you have any advice on treatments or remedies?

Question

I'm dealing with BPPV and it's been really tough. Every time I turn my head towards the left, it feels like the room is spinning and I lose my balance. I've seen two doctors about it. The first said there's no medication for this, but the second prescribed Valium 2 and Vertin 24 for a couple of weeks and suggested some tests. They also performed the Epley Maneuver and taught me how to do it at home. My schedule is pretty hectic since I work 23 days weekly, mostly overnight due to different time zones, and the doctor advised me not to stay up all night. I'm just really anxious about when this will get better because it's affecting my daily life and I'm worried about whether these medicines will help or if something more serious might happen.

Question

I'm having an issue with my uvula. It seems unusually long and stretched out, and feels almost like there's something stuck in my throat when there isn't. Sometimes it makes me gag randomly. Is this something I should be worried about?
