My wife has been dealing with sinus issues for a while now, and she keeps having constant head pain. She even had surgery three years ago, but the problem hasn't gone away. What could be causing this ongoing pain, and are there any other treatments we should consider?

I'm COVID positive, but my chest X-ray is normal, and my CRP and D-dimer levels are really low. My blood tests, liver function tests, and vitamin levels are normal too, and I don't have diabetes, fever, or body aches. My oxygen levels are above 96 most of the time. It's been almost 14 days since I tested positive. Im really puzzled because I still feel like I can't breathe properly through my nose, almost like the air isn't getting in. It feels like I'm breathing rapidly and shallowly. I do have sinusitis, a deviated nasal septum, and nasal polyps, but I've had those for 3 years and theyve been inactive with no symptoms until now. Could these be causing problems now because of COVID? I'm feeling really down and dont know which doctor I should consult about this. Any advice?

I'm a 27-year-old male nurse working in the surgery OT and I've had chronic pharyngitis for 3 months now. I've tried meds like tab Lnz, tab Dexa, and tab Razo D but nothing seems to work. Lately, I've been getting this weird chest pain right in the center every morning and it's making me really worried what could be going on?

Hey, I've noticed that when my husband sneezes, there's this really bad smell. It's pretty concerning. He also has bad breath every now and then. What could be causing this? I'm a bit worried.

If this is his only symptom, then it could suggest a sinus infection. If the smell is perceived by everyone, but not your husband himself, it coulf be suggestive of atrophic rhinitis. In either case, it is recommendable to get an ENT specialist's opinion.
