I'm really feeling under the weather with this throat pain. It's been tough dealing with a dry throat and I'm also having this fever that's got me shivering quite a bit. What's strange is that there's no cough along with these symptoms. Can you help me figure out what's going on or suggest what I should do? I'm just not sure how to handle this.

Throat pain, cold, fever, and chills with dry throat but no cough can be symptoms of a viral infection. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can take acetaminophen for fever and pain relief. Additionally, you can try lozenges like Strepsils for throat pain relief. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention.

Question

After eating chicken about a year ago, I felt like a bone got stuck in my throat. I went to an ENT specialist and got an X-ray, which turned out normal. A few months ago, I felt that same stuck sensation in the same spot after eating something and ended up coughing and vomiting, which made me feel better. Today, I had food and felt the same thing again, same spot, and I coughed and vomited again, but this time, I noticed some bloody sputum, and I've had a cough for the last two days. Im wondering why its the same spot every time and if the blood could be related to this cough and cold. What do you think might be going on?

Question

I've recently recovered from COVID, but I'm starting to feel some symptoms that worry me. I've got a sore throat, pain under my tongue, and irritation in my throat. I'm sneezing a lot too, and I have a history of maxillary sinus issues and nasal deviation. It feels like I might be dealing with COVID-like symptoms again, but I don't have a fever. Should I be concerned about this recurrence, and what can I do to alleviate these symptoms?
