I had surgery yesterday and I've noticed that my uvula has gotten really elongated, almost laying on my tongue. Is this something I should be worried about? Is it normal after surgery or should I get it checked out?

View allI'm really worried because I think I have a hair stuck in my throat. It feels so uncomfortable. Is there a way to get it out on my own, without having to see an ENT doctor? Is it harmful if it stays there? Would love to hear your advice!
Nothing happens just drink water it gets excreted.

I've been having this mild pain on the right side of my throat. It's sort of around the mid to lower area, but I don't have a fever or a sore throat. It's been bothering me a bit, and I'm not sure what's going on. Any idea what might be causing this?
Right side throat pain with no fever or sore throat could be due to various reasons such as muscle strain, acid reflux, or even a mild infection. To help alleviate the pain, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil) at the recommended dosage. Additionally, you can try gargling with warm salt water to soothe the throat. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

Hey, so about a week ago, I accidentally got a piece of guava stuck in my windpipe. At first, some of it came out, and I didn't really feel like there was anything left. But now, for the past two or three days, it feels like something is still there, and it's starting to hurt. I looked it up online and came across the Heimlich maneuver. I gave it a shot, but nothing changed. Then I read about this "coca cola trick" where carbonated drinks might help dislodge it. Do you think that could actually work? Should I give it a try? And if it's really stuck there for a long time or ends up in my lungs, is that really bad?
Ideally its impossible for food particle to stay in your wind pipe because it will immediately cause you choking effect,you might be having minor trauma there while having food,no need to worry consume warm water and take adequate rest tha will slef resolve,if becoming worse visit ENT doctor for appropriate management
