Why Do I Have Throat Swelling and Cold Fever?
Throught swelling and cold fever also

General Physician
Answered on 28th Oct '24
Throat swelling with a cold fever can mean your body is fighting an infection. These symptoms may consist of a sore throat, trouble swallowing, and being tired. Usually, it is caused by viruses, such as the flu. Warm fluids, resting, and perhaps the use of lozenges may be beneficial. If the symptoms are getting worse or persisting for a long time, it is better to consult an ENT specialist to check for any complications.

My throat is stuck due to tonsils and my right side here is paining. My small tongue is almost joints with my throat which makes my vocal dimag. Please help me I'm very scared
Male | 27
Your throat feels uncomfortable, with swollen tonsils causing discomfort on one side. Swollen tonsils affect your voice, sounding unusual. Germs like viruses or bacteria likely caused this throat infection. To ease symptoms, drink warm liquids and eat soft foods. Gargling warm salt water may help too. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical advice from an ENT specialist promptly for proper evaluation and treatment.

sore throat headaches vary tarid
Female | 30
A sore throat accompanied by headaches can stem from various factors, such as viral infections, allergies, or even sinus issues. Symptoms often include discomfort while swallowing, fatigue, and nasal congestion. Staying hydrated and using over-the-counter pain relievers may help alleviate discomfort. Gargling with warm salt water can also provide relief. However, should your symptoms persist for more than a few days or worsen, please consider reaching out to a physician for further evaluation.

Dear Doctor, From last couple of days i am suffering from acute pain in my throat specially while swallowing anything and also having cough with mucus but mucus is not coming out i can hear the rattling sound from my throat while coughing and after carefully examining my throat i can see that my left side of tonsil has inflammation with several white spots on it the white spots are there on both the tonsils but i can feel the extreme pain at the left side of tonsil only. I am frequently doing saline gargles but its not helping me out. Further i would request you to kindly advise some good medications for the quick relief. Thank you
Male | 41
You may be experiencing acute tonsillitis, resulting in significant discomfort while swallowing and coughing. The presence of white spots suggests a possible infection. Saline gargles are helpful, but additional treatment may be necessary. Over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen can provide relief. Staying hydrated and using throat lozenges may also ease the pain. However, I recommend seeking a healthcare professional for a precise diagnosis and suitable medications, as they may prescribe antibiotics if a bacterial infection is present.

I am suffering from sinus problem and najal allergy since my childhood
Female | 20
Sinus issues are the usual culprits for stuffy or runny noses, headaches, and pressure around your eyes and nose. Nasal allergies occur when one's immune system reacts even to innocent substances like pollen or dust. The best way to manage this is by avoiding the triggers such as dust, using air filters, and taking allergy medications.

I am a 24-year-old bachelor student. I have been experiencing a persistent runny nose, frequent sneezing, nasal blockage, and difficulty breathing through both nostrils as one is always blocked alternately. These symptoms worsen when I consume cold drinks or fruits. Additionally, physical exercise and changes in the environment exacerbate my condition. This has been ongoing for the past year, and despite seeking treatment from 2-3 doctors, including homeopathy, I have not found relief. Now, I am exhausted from the ongoing symptoms and would like to identify the root cause and pursue appropriate treatment.
Male | 24
You might have allergic rhinitis, triggered by things like pollen, dust mites, or certain foods. Seeing an allergist can help identify your triggers and recommend treatments such as avoiding allergens, taking medications, or getting allergy shots. Proper treatment is important for feeling better and enjoying life without discomfort.

I’ve been having thick dark reddish brown some ties almost black nasal drainage it pours out of my nose and I have absolutely no control over it it’s worse at nights it will sometimes leave my bedding soaking wet to where I have to change it every night and I sometimes go through a whole box of tissues this has been going on since early January mostly just draining at night
Female | 26
Maybe your nasal symptoms suggest chronic rhinosinusitis. Thick, dark reddish-brown mucus can flow uncontrollably, often worse at night. Inflamed sinuses likely cause this issue. Saline sprays may provide relief. Consulting an ENT doctor helps evaluate and treat the underlying problem.

If I look inside my nose in the mirror with flash on the pink fleshy part is really close together in each nostril. Does this mean enlarged turbinates? And does it go away on its own? I woke up with a blocked nose 2 days ago randomly and my nose has been feeling congested since. If I close my mouth I can’t breathe through my nose. If I blow air out of my nostrils I can only feel it coming out of one nostril and it alternates between each nostril. I was able to breathe normally with my mouth completely closed just 2 days ago. How can I fix this? There is some mucus but not a lot.
Female | 25
The pink fleshy parts you see are likely normal structures, but they may appear enlarged during congestion. This condition can improve over time. To alleviate symptoms, try using saline nasal sprays, staying hydrated, and inhaling steam. If symptoms persist or worsen, seeing a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation is a good idea to rule out any underlying issues and receive appropriate treatment.

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.

What decongestant can i take while breastfeeding
Best is to take nasal decongestant sprays for a short duration as prescribed by your physician. It's locally acting, quick relief and a negligible amount is absorbed into the circulation.

Male | 18
You might have an inflammation in your right ear. This could be due to the previous fungal infection. The redness and heat you feel could be the result of your body reacting to the irritation. I advise that you see an ENT specialist so that they can check your ear and give you the right treatment.

Female | 25
You’ve had a rough time with your left ear. If the operations didn’t fully work and now your hearing is not as good, it could be due to damage or complications from the surgeries. I recommend seeing an ENT specialist for a detailed evaluation and possible solutions to improve your hearing.

Your symptoms seem to suggest that you have allergies. Different symptoms including a runny nose, sore throat, and an itchy ear can characterize allergies. Dust, pollen, or keeping pets are the causes of these symptoms. It is important to keep your surroundings clean, use air filters, and take over-the-counter medication for allergies. Stay away from strong scents and consult your doctor for other treatment alternatives.

Female | 20
Having a swollen lymph node in your neck for a long period isn't normal. Since it's been there awhile and hurts when using your laptop, checking with a doctor makes sense. This lasting lump could come from an infection or inflammation nearby. Seeing a ENT specialist will help discover the reason and the right treatment approach.

i have ear and ringing in left ear ,advice midicaine.
Male | 50
Ringing in your left ear is known as tinnitus. It can be caused by exposure to loud noises, ear infections, or a buildup of earwax. To reduce the ringing, you can use over-the-counter ear drops to clear any excess wax. If the ringing persists or worsens, it’s important to see an ENT specialist for further examination and treatment.

Something stuck in your throat can happen for many reasons. Swollen tonsils, drip from the nose, or stomach acid can cause it. You might have trouble swallowing, a sore throat, and coughing. Drink lots of water. Gargle with salt in warm water. Eat soft foods. But if it doesn't go away, see an ENT specialist.

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.

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.
