I'm dealing with osmf and recently I've been having a sore throat. Theres this weird itching feeling, almost like something is stuck in there. I'm wondering, could this throat issue be linked to osmf?

View allI'm curious about something that's been happening to me. Every time I sneeze, I end up with throat pain and my voice changes, but it all seems to go back to normal by the next day. Do you think this might be some sort of infection?
Some throat discomfort and watering from nose and eyes is normal after a powerful sneeze reflex.

Can the surgery for pus behind the eardrum be done with local anesthesia or is general anesthesia always necessary I'm a bit nervous about going under and wondering if there's another option
Your healthcare provider will give you general anesthesia that puts you to sleep. You may also get antibiotics to reduce the chance of an infection. Once you're asleep, your provider will access your eardrum.

I'm experiencing a loss of smell and taste over the last two days, but I don't really have any other symptoms. There's a very mild cold, but it doesn't feel like a regular cold at all. Should I be concerned about this, or is it nothing to worry about?
It sounds like you may be experiencing mild symptoms of a cold. To help with your loss of smell and taste, you can try using a nasal decongestant spray like Afrin. You can also take an antihistamine like Claritin to help with any congestion. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions on the packaging for both medications. Anosmia is also a common symptom of Covid-19 infection. It is advisable to do an RT-PCR test to confirm, and then follow appropriate isolation protocols.
