I have an adrenal finding initially labeled as a nodule and later as an adenoma. What is the difference between these terms, and what are the implications for my health and potential treatment?

Hello, I have a cold for 3 weeks now which has complicated into sinusitis and recently my ears are very clogged and I can barely hear. I also have lots of mucus which sometimes leads me to choking when I try to cough it out. The cough is mostly in the mornings and evenings, and it's dry in the evenings since there are less mucus. I have used Sinupret Intense, Actifed, and a nasal spray with xylometazoline, but they didn't help after a week. I have not done any tests. What could be causing this and what medications can help?

I've been experiencing difficulty breathing for the last four days, with symptoms including runny nose, dry cough, and shortness of breath. I went to the ER this morning, and while they said everything was okay, I know something is wrong. I had asthma as a child but it stopped. What do you recommend for my situation?

I just tested positive for COVID-19 at home. I'm experiencing symptoms such as fatigue, a temperature of 100.9°F, a honking cough, severe hip pain, and a headache. I'm 67 years old, diabetic, overweight, and have COPD. What should I do next?

I received a cortisone injection in my glute muscle two months ago for nerve pain, which worked well. I got another injection two days ago as the pain returned. The pain has increased and is worse than before. I masturbated yesterday, which may have aggravated the area. Did I ruin the shot, or did I stretch the muscle where the needle went in? The doctor who administered the injection didn't use ultrasound. Could he have hit a nerve? Should I be concerned?
