I'm dealing with a sore throat and a persistent cough, and it's making it really hard for me to talk properly. Could it be that my voice box is infected? Im worried and would love some advice on what I can do to feel better.

You seem to be suffering from viral upper respiratory tract infection which is a common type of throat infection in this season. You may need to take antibiotics, steam inhalation and cough syrups for few days for faster recovery Next Steps Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required

View allI'm feeling like there's something stuck in my throat. Whenever I swallow or drink water, it feels like something's lodged right in the middle. It's weird because I don't notice it while I'm eating, but afterwards, that sensation comes back. Also, I've noticed these small pink pimple-like bumps towards the back of my tongue. What's going on with me?
drink hot water regularly, avoid spicy food.take tab.b complex for atleast 5 days

I'm dealing with a really bad throat infection and my doctor prescribed Azithromycin 500 mg for 5 days. I'm a bit worried about taking antibiotics for that long. Is it really okay to take Azithromycin for 5 days straight? Does it help with throat infections, or should I be looking out for anything in particular while I'm on it?
Azithromycin 500mg is prescribed for 3 days for most bacterial infections, but a 5-day course may be recommended for certain conditions, such as streptococcal pharyngitis (strep throat); since your doctor has prescribed it for 5 days for your throat infection, it's likely appropriate, but always follow their instructions and complete the full course.

I've been smoking and drinking on and off, and about 10 days ago, I had a really bad throat pain and cold fever. My doctor gave me Ampoxin 625 mg, and it completely went away. But I've noticed that whenever I masturbate at night, by the next morning, I've got this awful sore throat. It's been like this for 10 days straight. Is there some connection between masturbation and sore throats?
