I'm dealing with a dry throat and it's been happening for a few days now. I think the monsoon is triggering my allergies or something, and it feels like I've got some mucus stuck in there. The past two nights have been rough because I can't seem to sleep wellthe air from the AC dries out my mouth. Is it safe to take Montair LC and Alex syrup together for a few days? My doctor suggested Montair LC, but I haven't started it yet since I was hoping the issue would clear up on its own.

View allI'm having trouble with a blocked nose that makes it hard for me to breathe, especially when I'm lying down. I don't have a cough, fever, or runny nose, but I can feel a bit of chest congestion. It's like the inside of my nose, near the bone area, is all blocked up. What can I do to feel better?

My mom has a CSF leak from her right nose. The ENT surgeon recommends surgery, but the general medicine and critical care doctors say it's not urgent and suggest getting a third opinion from a neurologist or another ENT specialist. She's on medication now and showing some improvement compared to before. Should we go ahead with the endoscopic surgery or wait to see if it heals on its own?
Given the differing opinions and your mother's improving condition, it's wise to delay the surgery and explore conservative treatment options. The ENT surgeon's recommendation for surgery is one option, but the general medicine and critical care doctors suggest a less urgent approach and seeking a second or third opinion. Since the condition is improving, a period of observation and conservative treatment is warranted.

I've been dealing with this feeling like there's mucus stuck in my throat for the last 34 years and it's really frustrating because it happens even in the summer. I tried gargling but that didn't help at all. A few months back I saw an ENT specialist in Ghaziabad, and he said nothing was stuck in my throat. What should I do next?
You can try using an expectorant like Mucinex (guaifenesin) to help thin and loosen the mucus. You can take Mucinex 600mg extended-release tablets once daily with plenty of water. Additionally, you can try using a nasal spray like Flonase (fluticasone) to reduce any post-nasal drip contributing to the sensation. Use Flonase 2 sprays in each nostril once daily. If the issue persists, you may consider a referral to a gastroenterologist for further evaluation of acid reflux as a possible cause of your symptoms.
