I was just wondering when it's safe to start smoking again after having a tonsillectomy. I'm on day 11 of my recovery and I'm feeling way better, with almost no pain now. I even stopped taking pain meds three days ago. Any advice?

I often wake up feeling like there's something stuck in the back of my throat, kind of like phlegm, but it feels more like a rubbery slime or clay. It's really making me feel nauseous and I'm wondering if there's any medicine to help with it. I've had sinusitis before, which got better, but this still happens. When I eat, I sometimes can't swallow properly, and other times my throat gets super dry, and I think some cough might have gotten frozen in there due to fungus or something. What could this be, and is there a treatment for it?

take syrup ascoril twice a day for 5 days

I'm dealing with polypoid mucosal thickening in both my left and right maxillary sinuses, and I'm trying to wrap my head around what exactly this means for me. Plus, I've got CVID and keep having infections in my sinuses and chest. What kind of treatment options should I be considering?

as it is polypoid and bothering you visit your ENT docotor and get it removed through a surgical procedure called FESS,no need to worry its curable.
