I'm really worried about this sensation of something stuck in my throat that's been bothering me for the last three months. At first, there was this heaviness near my throat, but thankfully that's gotten better. Whats weird is the problem of feeling like there's something there just won't go away. Earlier, I also had a burping issue, but thats stopped now. I should mention I used to smoke and have quit since March when these throat issues started. Any idea what could be going on?

Your persistent sensation of something stuck in your throat, despite improvement in heaviness, could be related to acid reflux, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), or a throat irritation; quitting smoking is a positive step, but consider consulting an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist or a gastroenterologist to rule out underlying conditions, such as a throat polyp, inflammation, or esophageal narrowing, and to discuss further diagnostic tests like endoscopy or imaging studies.

View allI've been dealing with this issue for the past couple of weeks and it's really starting to worry me. My throat is constantly dry, and it's really painful when I try to swallow my saliva. It's strange though, because I can swallow food and water just fine. This dry throat thing is just nonstop all day and I'm kind of at a loss here. What do you think might be going on? Could it be something serious?
that could be pharungitis,visit your ENT doctor for evaluation and appropriate treatment.

I'm a 34-year-old guy who's been dealing with off-and-on nasal congestion for as long as I can remember. I just had an x-ray of my nose and the PNS result showed some haziness in the right maxillary sinus. My ENT doctor has put me on a course of amoxclav for five days, plus I'm using a fluticasone nasal spray and taking telecast L tablets. I'm really curious about what's causing this haziness. Is it something that happens often, or is there any reason I should be worried? Would appreciate some insight.

I've noticed this strange clicking sound in my ears. It's been quite bothersome, so I went to an ENT specialist, but he didn't find anything unusual. I'm really puzzled by this. Could there be something else happening with my ears that wasn't spotted? Any advice on what it might be or steps I should consider next?
That could be ear effusion, practice valsalva manoeuvre u will feel relieved.
