I'm having some trouble with pain on the left side of my throat, where my food pipe is. It's really noticeable when I'm jogging and taking in air; it hurts quite a bit. The pain seems to stick around throughout the day too. Sometimes it even makes my left ear hurt a little. Any ideas on what this could be or how to deal with it?

It sounds like you may be experiencing inflammation or irritation in your throat, possibly related to acid reflux or a throat infection. To help alleviate your symptoms, I recommend taking a proton pump inhibitor like Omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast to reduce stomach acid production and help with any acid reflux. Additionally, you can try using a throat lozenge like Strepsils to soothe your throat as needed. It's also important to stay hydrated and avoid irritants like smoking or alcohol. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

View allI'm having this watery discharge coming from my ear for the past day. It all began with really bad pain and a lot of pressure, but then after a while, the pain slightly eased up, and that's when the drainage started. Should I be worried about this?

I've been dealing with tonsillitis and I've got these white patches in my throat. I've tried taking Novamax 500 for a couple of nights, but it doesn't seem to be helping much. Should I stop using it and try something else like Azithromycin Azithral 500 for the next three days? Or would Augmentin 625 Duo be a better option? I'm trying to figure out which one would work best for treating tonsillitis.
Fertisure M is a supplement designed to support male fertility, particularly sperm motility. However, individual results may vary, and the effectiveness of Fertisure M depends on several factors, including: 1. *Underlying causes of low motility*: If the low motility is due to an underlying medical condition, Fertisure M may not be enough to completely resolve the issue. 2. *Dosage and compliance*: Ensure your husband takes the supplement as directed by the doctor. 3. *Combination with other treatments*: Fertisure M might be prescribed in conjunction with other treatments or lifestyle changes. Typically, supplements like Fertisure M may take around 3-6 months to show noticeable improvements in sperm motility. However, this timeframe can vary significantly from person to person. *Monitoring progress*: Regular semen analysis tests (every 2-3 months) can help track changes in sperm motility. This will enable your husband's doctor to assess the effectiveness of Fertisure M and make any necessary adjustments to the treatment plan.

I'm having some ear pain for the past three days. It gets worse when I burp or do something similar, and now the pain seems to be spreading in my ear. Should I be worried about this? What could it be?
Sounds like you may be experiencing ear infection symptoms. I recommend using over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen for pain relief. Additionally, you can use ear drops containing benzocaine to help with the discomfort. If the pain persists or worsens, please consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.
