I'm feeling like there's something oily in my throat when I swallow, and it keeps coming back up but never fully comes out. I've tried gargling with hot water, but it's really uncomfortable. A few days ago, I had a cold and now I'm suffering from a cough and sore throat. I'm taking Grilinctus for the cough. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

View allI've been dealing with tonsil stones for about a year now and keep finding small stones in my tonsils. I've managed to remove some, but the outer ones won't budge. Sometimes it feels like something's stuck in my throat. I don't have ear pain, fever, trouble swallowing, or a sore throat just a dry throat. What can I do to relieve this without surgery? I gargle with Betadine daily. Could this be chronic tonsillitis?
Tonsil stones can cause discomfort and bad breath. While you can try home remedies like salt water gargles and coughing to dislodge them, if they persist or cause severe symptoms, consult a doctor. If you have chronic tonsillitis, they might recommend a tonsillectomy to remove the tonsils.

I'm really worried about my 2-month-old son's hearing. He didn't pass the OAE test, and when we went for the BERA test, the right ear showed no response, and the left only a slight response at higher thresholds. Some folks tell me that hearing can still develop until he's around 1.5 years old, but our pediatrician thinks we should see an ENT for possible interventions once he turns 6 months. I'm torn about what to do. Can anyone recommend a good doctor who specializes in this? Also, are there any effective treatment options we should consider?
Its completely understandable to feel unsure and worried about your babys health, but following the pediatricians guidance to see an ENT specialist after 6 months is a wise decision. Early intervention can significantly improve the chances of normal speech and language development.
