I'm really worried because I can see my epiglottis and it seems like it's always visible. Ive been dealing with allergic bronchitis and lately I feel like there's something stuck in my throat, although it doesn't actually hurt. However, I've developed a throat infection over the last week. Is it normal for my epiglottis to be visible all the time? I'm pretty scared about this. What should I do?

View allI've had this tiny white spot at the back of my right tonsil for about 10 days now. I first went to a general doctor who said it was a bacterial infection and gave me an antibiotic, Poxivio 200, but it didnt help. So, I saw an ENT specialist. He said its just food debris and removed a small part of it, but it hasn't all gone away. He mentioned not removing all of it to avoid blood loss and just told me to do warm gargles and take Zadonase tablets. Should I be worried about this spot hanging around?
It sounds like the white spot at the back of your right tonsil is likely due to food debris, as mentioned by the ENT specialist. The tablet Zadonase prescribed by the ENT specialist can help with any inflammation or infection in the area. Additionally, warm gargles can help alleviate any discomfort and promote healing. It is important to follow the prescribed treatment and continue with the warm gargles as advised. If the white spot does not improve or if you experience any worsening symptoms, it would be best to follow up with the ENT specialist for further evaluation.

My doctor recommended septoplasty in early February because I often feel suffocated. I have a really important exam in mid-March if I get the surgery in February, will I recover enough to handle both? Right now I'm using fluticasone nasal spray and taking oral allergy meds
post 16 yrs sx is advised.continue fluticosone spray.
