Hello, my auntie has just lost her voice due to a terrible cough and heavy smoking. She is 65 years old, takes oxycodone, and has lung appointments scheduled in a week. Should we take her to the ER for her lost voice, and how should she manage it? Additionally, I took polyethylene glycol 3350 and my saliva turned into pure foam. Is this normal?

I have tympanosclerosis with possible infection and impacted earwax. I am a 27-year-old male with mild ear pain, impacted brown smelly earwax that needs cleaning every 6 months, and scarred eardrums from past tubes. One eardrum has red on the scar, and there's a dark dot. The ear pain is stable, achy, and sensitive when touched. I've tried ofloxacin ear drops without success. What could be causing this, and what treatments should I consider?

My son, aged 59, has had a deep cough for over a month, worse at night, sounding nasally with constantly plugged ears. The cough comes and goes, mostly dry, with no chest pain. He has used allergy pills and some cough medicines. He had COVID-19 in the past and recently underwent radiation for PSA elevation, along with surgery two years ago. What could be causing this cough and should he consider allergy tests?
