I've been dealing with this annoying pricking sensation in my throat, and it's really starting to bother me. It's right at the front on the right side and only seems to happen when I swallow my saliva. Im not sure what could be causing this. Could it be something serious or just a minor issue? Id love to hear your thoughts on this.

I've been dealing with a DNS issue for a long time and have had multiple surgeries, but it's still not fixed. I visited Apollo Hospital, and the doctor recommended another surgery. My DNS is deviated to the right side, blocking my right nostril, making it hard to breathe properly. Because of this, I feel like my body isn't getting enough oxygen, so I end up breathing quickly or panting. Is surgery the only option, or are there other treatments that could help?

To guide you correctly, a thorough assessment is necessary.
