I'm really concerned because I just saw an ENT doctor and she told me I have something called Melanoplakia Buccal Mucosa. What does it mean and how is it treated? Could you please give me some advice on what steps to take next?

Don't try to remove the cotton yourself, as it can push it further in. Instead, visit an ENT specialist near you. Here are some options in Palava City, Dombivili East:
- RTKL VERTIGO & ENT CLINIC
- Trisense Ent Care
- Dr. Pol ENT Hospital (Dr. Uday Pol & Dr. Poonam Kshirsagar)
- Dr. Rakhi Dhotre Ear Nose Throat and Cochlear Implant Clinic
You can also search for more options and book an appointment online . Remember to explain the situation to the doctor, and they'll safely remove the cotton.

View allI'm waking up with a really weird sensation, like there's something rubbery or mucus-like stuck in my throat or behind my voice box. I've had post-nasal drip before and even saw an ENT specialist about it. I don't have any allergies. I had a CT scan a couple of months ago, and it showed minimal mucosal thickening in my right maxillary sinus. I also used a Netipot for about a week. Now, I'm dealing with some nasal obstruction. Could this obstruction be the reason for the rubbery mucus feeling?

I've been dealing with a throat infection for over a year now and it's really bothering me. Every time I eat something cold or sweet, my throat starts hurting. I had sinus surgery a year ago could that be related to this ongoing issue? What could be causing this persistent throat pain?
Your prescription supports the need for leave, but a full medical certificate with diagnosis, advised rest, and duration helps smooth HR processing.

I'm experiencing some pain on the left side of my neck just below the ear, and it's been happening for the past two weeks. Sometimes my throat hurts too, and it feels like there's something stuck in my left ear. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?
