I'm dealing with some discomfort and am hoping for some advice. About a week ago, I had a canker sore on my right tonsil and I took azithromycin and flexon, which seemed to clear it up. But now I have this persistent acid reflux and my right ear hurts with some swelling in my throat right under the ear. I'm still using flexon for the pain, but Im worried about what's causing all this. Can you help me understand what's going on and how to get some relief?

I've been having this weird sensation where it feels like my uvula is always touching my tongue. It's like there's something stuck in my throat and I keep feeling the need to swallow it down. I dont have any trouble swallowing or issues with my voice right now, but its getting a bit uncomfortable. What could be causing this?

Usually that's not possible visit ENT doctor for evaluation and appropriate management.
