I'm having a lot of trouble with persistent pain on one side of my throat, and it's affecting my ear, neck, and face. My eye also feels irritated. I've been dealing with this for a long time, even though I had a septoplasty about a year ago. The right side of my throat seems constantly infected, and it's making it hard for me to swallow and eat things like sour or oily foods. This issue also acts up when I'm outside. It's really making life difficult for me. What could be going on, and what should I do?

Given the complexity and persistence of your symptoms, its important to consult with an ENT specialist, as they can evaluate the full range of possible causes, from chronic infections to sinusitis or TMJ disorders. In addition to medical treatments, lifestyle adjustments and stress management can help you cope with the discomfort.

View allI've been dealing with a cold and cough for a few days now, and today it's gotten worse with a sore throat. It's actually making it hard to swallow my own saliva, but weirdly, I don't have the same problem when I'm eating food. I'm really curious why this is happening and what I can do to make it better. Can you help explain what's going on and any treatments I might try?
Your symptoms of cold, cough, sore throat, and difficulty swallowing saliva, but not food, suggest a possible viral pharyngitis or tonsillitis; the reason for this selective difficulty swallowing is likely due to the inflammation and irritation of the throat, which is more pronounced when swallowing thin liquids like saliva, but less noticeable with thicker, more lubricated foods; treatment options include: gargling with warm salt water, sucking on lozenges or ice chips,

I've been drinking buttermilk for the last couple of weeks and since then, I've developed a cold. Whenever I try to clear my throat, I end up with mehendi-colored phlegm, and if I push too hard, there's sometimes a bit of blood in it. My throat hurts so much that I can't swallow anything. What should I do next?
take tablet amoxyclav for 5 days , twice a day

I've had sinusitis for almost two months now and even after taking antibiotics and using a nasal spray, the pressure just won't go away. My CT scan showed a slightly deviated septum to the left, right concha bullosa, hypertrophy of both inferior nasal turbinates, and polypoidal thickening in the maxillary and left ethmoid bulla. Should I consider surgery or wait it out for a few more years?
septoplasty is advised to the patient.
