I threw up a couple of days ago, and since then my throat has been hurting a lot. It's really tough to even drink water or swallow anything. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?

View allI'm having this persistent pain on the left side of my throat that started last May. I had an endoscopy, but nothing showed up. The pain eased for a while, but now it's back. It's really painful under my tongue, especially deep on the left side, almost like a sore. The rest of my tongue feels fine. I'm kind of worried and just need to understand what might be going on. Can you help me figure this out?
A lump between the ear and jaw can be concerning! Given your age and symptoms, possible causes include: 1. *Lymphadenitis*: Inflamed lymph nodes due to infection (e.g., ear, throat, or dental issues). 2. *Parotid gland swelling*: Inflammation of the parotid gland, which can be caused by infection, blockage, or trauma. 3. *Abscess or cyst*: A collection of pus or fluid that can cause pain and swelling. It's essential to consult a doctor, preferably an Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) specialist, for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. They may recommend: 1. Physical examination 2. Imaging tests (e.g., ultrasound, CT scan) 3. Blood tests to check for infection or inflammation In the meantime, apply warm compresses to the area to help reduce pain and discomfort.

I've been dealing with recurrent sinusitis for a year now, with nasal blockage and fever, but it's gotten worse over the last 4 months. I wake up with snoring, a blocked nose, and yellow discharge, plus constant low-grade fever. I had nose surgery 3 years ago for a bone growth causing obstruction, which helped a little back then. I've tried antibiotics, steroids, homeopathy, and ayurveda, but nothing has fully fixed it. A recent X-ray showed bilateral inferior turbinate hypertrophy and maxillary sinusitis. What's the best solution to stop the blockages and prevent this from coming back?
Given the persistence and worsening of your sinusitis symptoms, including snoring, nasal blockage, yellow discharge, and low-grade fever, it's crucial to seek medical attention. A doctor or ENT specialist can properly diagnose the cause and recommend the most appropriate treatment
