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.

I've had a hoarse voice for 4 months and was diagnosed with vocal cord polyps. The doctor prescribed meds for 10 days and suggested a voice test. Will my voice return to normal in 10 days or would I need surgery to get it back to normal
It's unlikely your voice will return to normal within 10 days of medication for vocal cord polyps. While medication can help reduce inflammation and swelling, complete recovery often requires more time and potentially other treatments like voice therapy or, in some cases, surgery to remove the polyps. The voice test is likely to assess the extent of the problem and guide further treatment.

I'm curious about this recurring pain I've been experiencing around my throat and jaw. It happens about once a month and it really hurts, especially when I touch it from outside or move my head. A doctor mentioned it might be due to tonsillitis, but I don't have that sore throat feeling inside. It's only on the outside of my throat and jaw area. Could this really be tonsillitis, or could it be something else entirely?
Detection of thyroid nodules can be concerning. Since your thyroid function tests (TFTs) are normal, it's a good sign. Next steps: - Consult an endocrinologist or a thyroid specialist. - Discuss Fine-Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) or ultrasound-guided biopsy to determine the nature of the nodules. - Follow-up appointments will help monitor the nodules' size and characteristics. Stay calm, and follow your doctor's guidance.
