I'm dealing with this constant production of white mucus, and it just dries up and sticks in my throat. It's making it hard for me to gulp, although eating and drinking are fine. Do you have any idea what's going on or how I might be able to deal with this?

I am suffering from allergy sinusitis from 5yrs but I have done allergy test but no allergy but nasal spray is not effective but some doctors telling do surgery but some doctors telling not required congestion is more night and early morning

It's understandable that you're seeking clarity on your chronic sinusitis, especially with conflicting opinions about surgery. Since your allergy tests are negative, the cause might be non-allergic rhinitis or other factors affecting your sinus drainage. If nasal sprays are not effective, and your symptoms persist, further evaluation and possible surgical intervention could be considered.

I'm dealing with some pretty bad throat pain that's been going on for about 3 days now. I tried taking omega erythro and nimucet twice a day, and it seemed to help at first, but now the pain is back. Any ideas on what might be going on or what I should do next?

My eardrum ruptured six months ago from using a cotton swab and still hasn't healed. There's some mild pain but no pus. Is it normal for it to take this long to heal or would I need surgery?
