I had septoplasty and turbinate reduction surgery four days ago and I'm not sure what foods are best for healing right now. What kind of diet should I follow to recover faster and avoid any complications? Are there specific foods that help with swelling or that I should stay away from?

I've been dealing with red bumps on the back of my throat and tongue for a week now. They're itchy but not really painful. It's winter and everyone's got a cold at work, so I ended up with a mild cold too, and a couple of nights of low fever. I've also been experiencing loose stools. This happened once before, about 8 months ago, when I caught a cold. Should I be worried about the red bumps coming back? What could be causing this, and are there any remedies I should try?

I've been feeling like there's something stuck in my throat for a few days now. It's not painful or hard to swallow, just kind of uncomfortable. I took a look and saw a small bump, like 1 cm or maybe smaller, at the back of my tongue. I can also see my epiglottis and my uvula seems to be touching it. Is this something I should be worried about? It's been four days with this sensation, and I'm not sure what to do.
Consult an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist to evaluate the bump on the back of your tongue and the uneasy feeling of something stuck in your throat
