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?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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.

I'm dealing with granular pharyngitis and my ENT said my throat is a bit red inside, plus I've got this ongoing acidity issue. I've been put on ESSOM L and Coolora mouthwash for ten days. Should I be worried about granular pharyngitis? Is it just a common thing or can it turn into something serious down the line?
Granular pharyngitis is a condition characterized by the presence of small, red spots on the back of the throat. It is usually caused by chronic irritation or inflammation of the throat. In most cases, granular pharyngitis is not a serious condition and can be managed with appropriate treatment. The medication ESSOM L is a combination of Esomeprazole and Levosulpiride, which helps in reducing stomach acid production and improving digestion. The recommended dosage is usually one tablet before breakfast for 10 days. Coolora mouthwash is used to relieve symptoms of sore throat and mouth infections. It is usually recommended to use the mouthwash after meals or as directed by your healthcare provider. It is important to follow the prescribed treatment plan and complete the full course of medication as advised by your ENT specialist. Additionally, managing your acidity issue through dietary and lifestyle modifications can help prevent further irritation to the throat. If you have any concerns about your condition or treatment, it is best to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and guidance.
