Your sore throat and runny nose likely indicate a common cold virus. Stay hydrated, rest adequately, and gargle warm salt water to soothe your throat. For persistent or worsening symptoms consult a doctor.

i chocked on a stone that was sharp and pointy with multiple edges and now it feels like ive been stabbed in one specific spot in my throat and my chest hurts i have the occasional dry cough and when i swallow it feels like somethings there and a almost bubble like travels up to my ear

You likely scratched your throat, leading to discomfort. The object may have scratched or caused swelling in your throat area. Throat pain can sometimes radiate toward the ear region. Staying hydrated by consuming ample water aids in soothing the throat discomfort. However, if the pain persists or worsens, seeking medical attention becomes advisable.

These symptoms might be sinusitis, when infection sets into one or more of your sinuses, causing all sorts of trouble. You need an ENT doctor who will check you out properly and give treatment accordingly.

I am a 26 year old female who has been dealing with ear pain and jaw pain for how 5+ days and right now as I’m typing this, my right ear is getting worse. It’s keeps throbbing, vibrating, etc. this is all while trying to get rid of a cough I have as well as a runny nose and headache. What should I do?
Female | 26
It looks like otitis media is the most likely reason, which is an infection in the middle ear. This condition can cause ear pain, jaw pain, and a feeling of throbbing or vibrating in your ear. The cough, runny nose, and headache could be related or separate issues. You must visit an ENT specialist to obtain the right medication. During the waiting time, you may use a warm compress on your ear to relieve the pain.

Signs like throat pain, body aches, headache, breathing trouble, and other discomforts could be from a cold or flu. These viral illnesses spread quickly. Resting up, drinking fluids, and using OTC meds may ease symptoms.

Male | 54
Vocal nodules are injuries akin to calluses on the vocal cords that can be caused by either overusing your voice or speaking improperly. The result can be a hoarse or unclear voice. Fortunately, the result of the cancer test is negative. A voice therapist, avoiding vocal strain, and the rest of the voice can help you improve your voice.

I have excess ear wax which has hardened like stone.
Female | 27
Built-up ear plug can create an issue of a feeling of being uncomfortable, a reduction in one’s hearing ability, or the illusion of fullness in the ear. Mainly, it is the misuse of cleaning methods and anatomy of the jeopardized narrow ear canals. The other reason might be a skin disorder. To dissolve the wax that has become firm, try mineral oil- or saline solution-based, over-the-counter drops. To prevent earwax from being pushed deeper inside, do not use cotton swabs. If the healing process at home is ineffective or you are in pain when doing it, it is recommended to see a doctor.

I have ichy and dry throat for 2 weeks. What I need to do?
Female | 51
Having an itchy, dry throat can be annoying, especially if it’s been going on for two weeks. It could be caused by allergies, a virus, or even dry air. You might feel a scratchy sensation when swallowing or talking, and you might also experience coughing or a hoarse voice. To soothe your throat, drink plenty of water, use a humidifier, and suck on lozenges. If it doesn’t get better, have it checked by an ENT specialist.

I'm suffering 15 days vertigo problem.it's become now very painful and nausea also not going after having verten 8 tablet .From 2 days ear also start buzzing.Throat infection also started.
Female | 42
You need immediate medical attention by an ENT. Your ear examination and audiological assessment is of extreme importance for prompt treatment.
Tab Vertin aggravates acid reflux, adding an antacid will help with the nausea.

I went to a ENT specialist last week who removed some earwax plug from my right ear. Since last week my ear feels itchy inside sometimes, whenever I start being active with it (moving it or touching it with my finger). What can be the cause ? Probably not earwax as I went to the doctor last week.
Male | 31
The ear getting treated for wax buildup is fantastic news! However, itchiness in the ear canal post-procedure may occur. This results from skin irritation caused by disturbance during cleaning. Don't insert objects or scratch inside your ear. This discomfort should subside naturally. But if symptoms worsen, consult your ENT specialist immediately.

I have yellow mucus since 7 days medicine does not treat me i don't know what to do it irritates me too much so give me any treatment or any medicine
Female | 15
If you have yellow mucus for more than 7 days and it doesn't get better with medication, it's likely a sinus infection. You might feel lousy, with headaches or facial pressure too. To help clear it up, try using a humidifier, drink plenty of water, and use a saline nasal spray. But if it persists or worsens, see an ENT specialist.

It's been a month for me Sore throat and yellow and white bump's on the inner wall of the throat like pharyngitis What causes it It only hurts a little while swallowing and it feels like there is something on the inner wall of the throat I'll smoke little bit and I'm worrying about this is cancer can you please explain
Female | 25
You might have pharyngitis, which is inflammation and swelling in the back of your throat. The yellow and white bumps could be pus pockets, often caused by viral or bacterial infections. Smoking can irritate your throat and make things worse, so it's a good idea to stop for a while. To soothe your throat, drink plenty of fluids, gargle with warm salt water, and avoid smoking. If the problem doesn’t improve, it’s best to see an ENT specialist for further advice and treatment.

Female | 28
A cold can be expressed by symptoms like a stuffy nose, sneezing, and sore throat. You may be having a cough and/or a runny nose as well. To help your body recover, you should rest, drink plenty of the right kind of liquids like water and warm tea, and to relieve the discomfort of the sore throat try over-the-counter medications like throat lozenges or saline sprays.

I have inside tongue pain which goes inside my ear I feel like someone is hitting my ear when I swallow and I feel vomiting sensation often at evening
Female | 13
You may have tonsillitis. It can be felt in your tongue, ear, and throat. The pain may be so severe when swallowing that it feels as though your ear is being struck. Feeling sick in the evenings is not uncommon either. A virus or bacteria can cause the condition. Drinking lots of water, getting plenty of rest, and consuming soft foods can be helpful. For further treatment, a visit to an ENT specialist may be necessary.

I have glandular fever and was wondering if I should go into hospital or if there’s anything I can do to lessen the symptoms as my tonsils are very swollen and it hurts to talk and swallow my saliva as well as eat and drink
Female | 17
Glandular fever, also known as infectious mononucleosis, could be causing your symptoms. This viral illness makes tonsils swell and hurt badly. You may have a sore throat, swollen glands, and feel exhausted. To ease discomfort, rest well, drink plenty of fluids, and take pain medication if needed. If swallowing is difficult, eat soft foods and avoid rough or spicy items. Consult an ENT doctor if symptoms worsen.

Hi Doctor I got throat problem because I got tube in my throat now I loss my voice I need to back my voice any medicine or something
Female | 21
Having a tube in your throat is difficult. The tube can irritate your throat tissues. This irritation makes your voice weak or gone. Many people have this problem after a tube. Your voice will return once irritation ends. Warm liquids soothe your throat and aid healing. Avoid straining your voice too much. If the problem persists, visit an ENT specialist.

It is important to see a doctor right away for this lump near your ear, especially if you feel pain and your mouth is drooping. This lump might be a swollen lymph node or something different that needs attention. The doctor will help determine what is happening and suggest the best treatment for you.

Dear Sir / Ma'am Pain in the throat whenever i wake up in the morning.mouth taste is also bitter .Sometimes blood also comes.
Male | 30
Pain in the throat and a bitter taste in the mouth can be signs of an underlying infection, such as a throat infection or tonsillitis. It is also possible that the symptoms are due to other causes, such as acid reflux or allergies. If you experience this symptom on a regular basis, it would be best to consult with your doctor for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. Your doctor may suggest further tests, such as blood tests, throat swabs, or imaging tests, to determine the cause of your symptoms.

Female | 30
A small lump under the neck can sometimes be due to a swollen lymph node, infection, or cyst. Even if the doctor said it's nothing, pain when touching it might need further checking. Consult an ENT specialist to get a proper diagnosis and rule out any serious condition.

sir my right side ear blok please any madecin for me
Male | 24
You might have a clogged right ear. The feeling you’re having comes from earwax or a slight infection. It may occur due to putting objects in your ears or having a respiratory infection. You can try OTC ear drops to dissolve the wax. Refrain from inserting anything into your ear and avoid exposure to loud noises. If that doesn’t work, it’s advisable to consult with a ENT specialist for further evaluation and management.
