I'm really worried about my pleomorphic adenoma diagnosis from 07052015. I've tried a bunch of homeopathic treatments, but nothing seems to work. I'm hoping to find a non-surgical solution. Are there any effective medications I should look into?

Given your diagnosis of pleomorphic adenoma and lack of response to homeopathic treatments, it's essential to consult a qualified oncologist for evidence-based advice; currently, there is no proven non-surgical treatment for pleomorphic adenoma, and watchful waiting or surgical excision are typically recommended; some research suggests that medications like Imatinib or Tamoxifen may be effective in shrinking salivary gland tumors, but these treatments are still experimental and require further study.

View allI've been experiencing this persistent pain in my throat for two days now. It hurts when I swallow saliva, eat, or even drink water. I'm really not sure what's causing it or how to make it go away. Could you give me some advice on how I might be able to ease this pain?
You may be experiencing a throat infection. You can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen to help reduce the pain and inflammation. Additionally, lozenges containing benzocaine or menthol can help numb the throat and provide relief. Gargling with warm salt water multiple times a day can also help soothe the throat. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If the pain persists or worsens, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm really worried because for the past three months, I've had this constant excess mucus in my throat. I feel like I need to clear my throat all the time, and sometimes it even gets sore or I'll have a cough with this sticky mucus. It's frustrating because my throat occasionally turns red too. I'm trying to understand what's going on, but I'm completely stumped. What could be causing this? Is there something specific I should be looking out for or trying to manage it?
That could be due to allergy, identify the triggering factor and avoid it, maintain healthy lifestyle.
