My son has an adenoids issue and the doctor suggested surgery, but we're really hesitant about going that route. Is there any other alternative treatment or option available for this that doesn't involve surgery?

You can opt for conservative management as well but getting operated and removed fas it is the solution for it.

Question

I've been dealing with this dry cough for the past 10 days and I went to see a doctor. They gave me antibiotics and anti-allergy meds, but I'm not seeing any improvement. The doctor checked and said my chest and throat are clear. A few days ago, they suggested I use betadine solution for gargling, but my voice is still blocked and this dry cough just won't go away. Any idea what might be going on or what else I should try?

Question

I've been experiencing this weird clicking sound in my nose when I'm lying down and resting. It sounds like a computer mouse click, and it's been going on for about six months now. It hasn't caused any problems, but I'm really curious about what it might be. Can you shed some light on this?

Question

I've noticed this small, hard lump kind of thing near my jawline. It doesn't hurt on its own, but touching it is really painful. I also saw two hairs growing there. Should I see an ENT doctor or a dentist for this?
