Question

I'm feeling like there's mucus stuck in my throat. It seems to get better when I eat something hot or drink hot water. I saw a GP and got some Coldact and an acidity tablet, but I'm not understanding why it keeps coming back. Any ideas on what could be going on?

Question

I'm hearing a lot of talk online about using urine to cure ear infections. Apparently, some people think it's the best or even the only way to fix an earache. But I'm worried that it might cause more issues, like infection, since urine is human waste and all. Can you clarify if this is safe or just a myth?

Question

I've been having this strange sensation on the left side of my throat whenever I cough. It's really weird because I don't feel any discomfort while eating or drinking. Should I be worried about this, or is it just a minor thing that will go away?

Question

I've been dealing with pharyngitis and had a throat culture done, which showed klebsiella pneumoniae present. I took antibiotics, and while some symptoms have improved, others linger. How can I know for sure if the bacteria is completely gone, and could the pharyngitis be caused by something else? If I get a repeat culture test and it comes back negative, does that definitely mean the bacteria is gone, or is there a chance it's still there but just not growing right now? Could you clarify this for me?
