I'm dealing with a lot of discomfort because I chewed a pudin hara tablet without water, and now my throat feels really irritated and swollen. Swallowing water has become quite difficult. What should I do to get some relief from this? Can you help?

I'm dealing with what I think might be vertigo issuesfeeling like I'm spinning and having trouble keeping my balance. My ENT doctor recommended Vertin 16 mg about 8 months ago, and I've been taking it as needed. I'm just wondering, is this something that can be cured over time? Also, should I make it a point to consult my doctor every single time these symptoms show up, or is it okay to manage it with the medication on my own? What do you suggest?
