Unable to gather courage!
I have been dealing with phlegm and constant throat clearing since a month. Pulmonologist has suggested me for an xray but due to the fear of TB/Cancer i am unable to get my courage and go for it. I am delaying it in the hope that it gets better automatically but its not.
I have coughed phlegm with streak of blood twice once due to coughing forcefully, and once today where i was not coughing but clearing the throat. I am so scared. Please guide me. I am not a smoker nor any bad habits like tobacco or beetel! I don't have fever or night sweats. What is the risk of having TB or cancer at my age? And i heard tb medications itself causes cancer? Please guide me doctors. I need your reassurances and guidance

Second opinion tight throat
Hello doctors,
I have had throat tightness for a few weeks and ENT visits have diagnosed it as allergies. I do not have a fever, the only complaint is my throat feels like its closing but I can breathe, eat and drink normally. It feels hardest in the morning when I wake up.
I'm in Pune, certainly the weather is changing however I wanted a second opinion/thoughts on the same.
Thank you

About N Fowleri
Can UV filter pipes of water purifiers have N Fowleri like in water heater pipes or UV would inactivate them? What if filters and membrane is old, will it permeate N Fowleri? Since water in filter tank was cold, will it inactivate it in cyst form.
I have read on various posts that it is active in warm waters and usually happens when water is forced up the nose like diving, swimming or using neti pots. So can washing face lead water to go that up the nose or can blowing nose to expel water later cause so much pressure to pull it up the nose?
Please help I don't want to die a loser, I haven't done much in life. We use borewell water from jet pump and now the water in tank is still cold but I used water from the RO unit which wasn't changed for 2 and half years this time and am afraid if the UV filter may have heated the water. Though the water I used finally stored in RO tank appeared cold.

Fear of N Fowleri infection
I had consulted 2 ENTs and they said it's rare so I shouldn't think much about it. Unfortunately I hadn't changed the filters or RO membrane of my Kent RO for 2 years 5 months now. The light still shows green but water flow is lesser.
I used that water to wash my face yesterday. I had pressed my nose when washing face but when I released my nose, blowing and wiping my nose and face, I felt wetness in nose. I am very scared that if some water drops went in, as water may not have been so effectively filtered, could I get N Fowleri infection?
How far up the nose the water has to go to cause an infection or risk for same. Can a few drops going in nose, can breathing in a few drops of water cause infection or water has to be forced up like deliberately sucking or snorting up water with force, which I didn't do to get infected.
Please please dear doctors answer and those asking for physical consultation only, kindly skip question. I felt so anxious that I had to take anti anxiety pills.

Ear itchiness
Respected sir/ ma'am,
I am suffering from ear itchiness, left ear is more problematic. I have tried using earbuds to clear the outer of the ear, not inside.
Please note that I have allergy issues, but even after taking antihistamines itchiness continuous. Sometimes becoming sever and then resolving in its own.
Kindly suggest what could be done.
Thankyou
