I woke up from a nap and felt a tingling in my neck on the right side under the ear. I rubbed it and felt a welt. I looked in the mirror and could definitely see a bulge. It is now 3 hours later and I feel it growing. No pain but it is now over 3" and is swelling into my face, along my ear and down the side of the neck. When I put ice on it it goes down but fills up again and larger. Really no pain but I do feel like a draining and puffing sensations. What could this be and what should I do?

I’ve recently developed blister-like bumps in my genital area. They itch, burn when I use the bathroom, and appeared after starting new birth control pills. I’m in a monogamous relationship and have no flu-like symptoms. Could this be caused by the new pills or something else?

My spit is really thick like glue, and my phlegm is the same. It has been this way for years. My doctor started me taking Mucinex several years ago, which helps, but it gets thicker every year. I quit smoking 2 1/2 years ago, but it didn't help. I have fibromyalgia, degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, and am immune deficient. What could be causing this thick phlegm and what can I do about it?

I recently experienced a nosebleed while blowing my nose at work. It was brief and I have sinus pain on the side where the nosebleed occurred. Given the high humidity and potential allergy triggers, what is the best aftercare to prevent another nosebleed? Should I avoid certain activities like walking or blowing my nose for a certain period?
