I'm taking Terol LA 4 mg, and a few hours later, my mouth feels super dry, and my throat gets really tight. It's making it hard for me to eat. What should I do about this?

To help with these side effects, you can try sucking on sugar-free candies or chewing sugar-free gum to stimulate saliva production. Additionally, staying hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day can also help alleviate dry mouth. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult your doctor for further evaluation and possible adjustment of your medication dosage.

View allHey, so about a week ago, I accidentally got a piece of guava stuck in my windpipe. At first, some of it came out, and I didn't really feel like there was anything left. But now, for the past two or three days, it feels like something is still there, and it's starting to hurt. I looked it up online and came across the Heimlich maneuver. I gave it a shot, but nothing changed. Then I read about this "coca cola trick" where carbonated drinks might help dislodge it. Do you think that could actually work? Should I give it a try? And if it's really stuck there for a long time or ends up in my lungs, is that really bad?
Ideally its impossible for food particle to stay in your wind pipe because it will immediately cause you choking effect,you might be having minor trauma there while having food,no need to worry consume warm water and take adequate rest tha will slef resolve,if becoming worse visit ENT doctor for appropriate management

I've had these Circumvallate papillae for about 5 years, and just last Thursday, after dinner, I noticed some new bumps forming behind them. I'm not someone who smokes or drinks. I even attached a couple of images for you to seethe first highlights these bumps in red, located right behind the junction of the Circumvallate papillae, and the second should help pinpoint exactly where they are. It's tough to get an appointment with an ENT right now. I'm just wondering, does this sound normal to you, or should I be worried enough to try harder to see a doctor? I'm dealing with anxiety over this and it's affecting my sleep. I'm really hoping you can help me understand what's going on.
To help reduce inflammation and alleviate any discomfort, you can try using over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medications like ibuprofen. Additionally, you can use a mouth rinse containing chlorhexidine to help with any potential infection. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult with a doctor for further evaluation and possible prescription of antibiotics or other medications.

my nose feels bent and I can even feel the bone is slightly crooked too is there any way to straighten it without surgery maybe with medicines or would I need an operation and are there any risks or side effects I should know about
If your nose feels bent or the bone seems crooked, it could be a deviated septum or a broken nose, and straightening it without surgery is unlikely. If it's a deviated septum, surgery (septoplasty) may be needed, and if it's a broken nose, it requires immediate medical attention, including the possibility of surgical repair.
