View allI'm dealing with Granular Pharyngitis and have been for a few years now. My throat constantly feels heavy and clogged with cough, and I find myself needing to clear it all the time. It's tough to talk sometimes, and my voice has gone hoarse permanently. I saw a local ENT specialist, but I didn't get much help. Do you think I should get a second opinion? Any advice on dealing with this would be really appreciated.
I'm sorry to hear about your struggles with Granular Pharyngitis. It can be frustrating, especially when it affects your voice and makes talking difficult. Seeking a second opinion is a good idea, as a more thorough evaluation and treatment plan can help manage symptoms better. It might be useful to look into lifestyle changes, medication, or even voice therapy depending on the severity.

I've had a sore throat for the last three months and it's not getting better. I've tried different medications like Bactoclav 625mg and Cefixime, but nothing seems to work. Should I be worried or try something else? What do you recommend?
common causes of a chronic sore throat include: Infections, such as persistent tonsillitis Environmental pollutants, such as smoke and chemicals Allergic reactions to pollen, mold, and pet dander Laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR), where stomach acid goes back into your throat Mouth breathing Straining your throat muscles by yelling, talking loudly, or talking for long periods without rest To help soothe a sore throat, you can try drinking plenty of fluids, such as herbal tea with honey or warm water with lemon. Honey has been shown to be an effective treatment for sore throats
