I'm feeling this weird sensation like something is stuck in my throat, and my chest feels so heavy like it's being pulled together with a string or something. Any idea what could be going on?

View allI'm really frustrated because my tonsils have a bunch of holes from these annoying tonsil stones. It's so irritating. If I get my tonsils taken out, will it solve this issue?
If you are experiencing recurrent issues with tonsil stones and they are significantly impacting your quality of life, a tonsillectomy (surgical removal of the tonsils) may be considered. This procedure can help alleviate the problem of tonsil stones by removing the source of their formation. Discuss with an ENT specialist about the possibility of a tonsillectomy and if it is the right option for you.

I've been dealing with constant nose block and thick mucus that's causing ear blockage too. An ENT specialist recommended surgery for a deviated septum or extra bone growth in my nose, but I really want to avoid surgery if possible. Are there any effective non-surgical treatments that could help with this condition?
Yes, several non-surgical treatments can address a deviated septum and related symptoms like nasal blockage, thick mucus, and ear blockage. These include nasal sprays, allergy medications, nasal strips, nasal irrigations, humidifiers, and addressing underlying allergies or asthma. If non-surgical treatments are insufficient, surgery (septoplasty) may be considered
