I'm really worried because for almost two years now, it feels like a lot of mucus is just building up in my mouth and throat, and it's like I constantly have to clear my throat. But lately, the past month or so, I've been feeling this burning sensation down my throat, especially when I breathe, and it's super bothersome. My throat and chest also feel really congested. I haven't had a fever, but it's been going on for so long now. What could be causing this?

I've been having some issues with my throat pain on the left side, and it's making my neck skin feel like it's burning. It's also really sensitive to touch, especially on the front. Should I be worried about this or is it something that might just go away on its own?

I've been noticing a bit of blood when I spit in the mornings, but it's not a regular thing and it isn't accompanied by any coughing. An ENT specialist mentioned it might be due to dryness. I'm also dealing with a mild fatty liver, but otherwise, I've been feeling okay. I'm in my 30s and just curious if there's anything else I should be considering or doing about this?

Yes as your doctor said that could be because of dryness or you might be having Dns or so..visit your ENT doctor for evaluation otherwise as the quantity is negligibke you can forget about it,stay hydrated.
