My son keeps getting tonsil infections every month with high fever and bad pain. Antibiotics help but the infection comes back after a few weeks. We've seen multiple doctors but nothing seems to fix it long-term. Really want to avoid surgery any other options we could try?

I'm really worried about my 5-year-old son's frequent nosebleeds. It's been happening for about a month now, and even though the amount of blood isn't much, sometimes it happens twice a day. We saw an ENT doctor around 15 days ago, and they said it was anterior and suggested using paraffin drops and saline. It did help a bit at first, but then the nosebleeds started becoming more frequent again over the past few days. He's currently taking Oleptal DT 150 twice a day for childhood epilepsy. Do you think we should go back for another check-up?

I've been dealing with pharyngitis for the past eight months and I've been taking EsogressL and Esogress 40. But now for the last month, even small tasks are making me feel breathless. I'm 163cm tall and weigh 73kg. What might be causing this and what should I do?

I've been having this sore throat for the past day, and it really hurts when I sleep or take a sip of water. It's pretty uncomfortable and I'm starting to worry a bit. Could this be a sign of something I should be concerned about, or maybe something I need to do to make it better?

Throat pain that worsens during sleep and while drinking water could be due to inflammation or infection. I recommend taking ibuprofen (e.g., Advil) 400mg every 6 hours as needed for pain relief and inflammation. Additionally, you can try lozenges containing benzocaine (e.g., Cepacol) to help numb the throat. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If the pain persists for more than a few days or if you develop other symptoms, please follow up with a healthcare provider.
