I'm a bit worried because it always feels like there's a lump or something stuck in my throat. Eating is fine, and I don't have trouble swallowing food, but when I just swallow my saliva, it feels like there's something tight in there. Can you help me understand what's going on?

Your symptoms suggest:

  1. Pulsatile tinnitus (abnormal sounds)
  2. Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) causing dizziness
  3. Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder

Consult an:

  1. ENT specialist
  2. Audiologist
  3. Neurologist (if dizziness persists)

In the meantime, try:

  • Relaxation techniques
  • Avoiding loud noises
  • Keeping your head still while sleeping

I've been having neck pain since last week and even had a fever for one night. When I sleep, I usually have some discomfort, so I tried going without a pillow, which helped for a few days. I've also been sleeping under a fan at night. Today, I noticed a lump in my tonsil area on the left side of my neck, and theres pain on the right side, but the swelling is only on the left. I'm really curious and a bit worried about what might be causing this and how I can treat it. Any insights you can provide?

Fever that lasts for several days. Difficulty swallowing or breathing. If the lump gets larger or more painful over time. If there are any new lumps or unexplained symptoms that arise. get it evaluated by a doctor

I've been having this weird pain near the left side of my Adam's apple for about 2 months now. It's really noticeable when I press on it or when I cough. I've already seen three ENT specialists who all gave me antibiotics, but they seemed to make it worse. Recently, another doctor gave me these tabletslevocetirizine, ambroxol, and montelukastand they help, but the pain comes back as soon as I stop taking them. I'm starting to get really worried and just don't know what to do at this point. Any advice on what this might be or what steps I should take next?
