How to manage frequent nosebleeds post-head injury?
Hi doctor,
My son fell when he was three years old, and his head was hit by a sharp stone inward. He underwent a CT scan right after and was discharged after few days, but as years pass by, he experiences frequent nose bleed even while sleeping. He is now seven years old. I am worried. Is nose bleeding a long-term effect of the incident, which happened four years ago, or something else? I hope I can get some answers to this. Thank you.

I have a bump on the left side of the nose for a long time. Should I be concerned?
Hello doctor,
I had a bump on the left side of my nose. It feels like cartilage or bone. It has always been there since I can remember. The right side of my nose does not have a bump whatsoever. I have always experienced breathing problems. I do not know if I should be concerned or that it is just something that will always be there.

After exposed to dry dust, I started getting hoarse voice, and inflamed vocal cords. What can I do?
Hi doctor,
16 months ago, I was exposed to fine dust from dry grinding/polishing of concrete (indoors) where I work. This went on for two workdays. My voice became coarse right away, and a cough started. Now, 16 months later, throat still irritated, voice is somewhat coarse. I have to clear my throat a lot. Still I have some cough. I saw an ENT a year ago, who said my vocal cords are wrong color and inflamed. I am still feeling the effects 16 months later. What do you think? What should I expect? What can I do? Will I get cancer? Please give me you are honest opinion. I am a nonsmoker.

Please help me.
