View allI've had a sore throat for the last three months and it's not getting better. I've tried different medications like Bactoclav 625mg and Cefixime, but nothing seems to work. Should I be worried or try something else? What do you recommend?
common causes of a chronic sore throat include: Infections, such as persistent tonsillitis Environmental pollutants, such as smoke and chemicals Allergic reactions to pollen, mold, and pet dander Laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR), where stomach acid goes back into your throat Mouth breathing Straining your throat muscles by yelling, talking loudly, or talking for long periods without rest To help soothe a sore throat, you can try drinking plenty of fluids, such as herbal tea with honey or warm water with lemon. Honey has been shown to be an effective treatment for sore throats

I'm feeling really uncomfortable because I gargled too much with salt water about a week ago, and now my throat is all scratchy and looks white inside. I've taken some meds, but they havent helped at all. My lips are super dry, and I've even lost my sense of taste. I dont have any cough, cold, or fever, but this throat issue is making me feel really uneasy. When I look in the mirror, my throat looks all patchy and it even burns inside. I'm really concerned about this because I've never felt anything like it before. Any idea whats going on or what I should do?
It sounds like the excessive saltwater gargling might have irritated your throat, leading to dryness and discomfort. To help, try drinking plenty of water, avoid further saltwater gargles, and use a humidifier to keep the air moist. If the burning sensation and dryness persist, a throat soothing lozenge or mild throat spray may help. If symptoms continue, it would be wise to consult a doctor for further evaluation.

my 10 year old daughter breathes through her mouth while sleeping due to adenoids - can this be treated with medicines alone or is surgery the only option
Mouth breathing due to enlarged adenoids can sometimes be treated with medication, but surgery (adenoidectomy) is often recommended for severe cases or if other treatments fail
