Actually, I am having a sore throat problem for a long time. I took every medication but nothing worked. I always feel like having cough and scratching sensation in my throat. Please help me. Just because of it I have to leave my job. Please look at my report. Is everything normal or is it something else?

Chronic sore throat with no improvement may suggest allergic rhinitis, reflux, or postnasal drip. Consider an ENT opinion. If your report is normal, its less likely to be an infection. Voice strain and chronic irritation also cause this.

Sir, I noticed red spots on my palms yesterday, and today they have spread to my feet. Could you please help me understand what the problem might be and its cause? I am awaiting my blood test report, but these spots have spread a lot over the past two days. Apart from medical treatment, what additional precautions should I take at home until I get my report? Kindly help
