I've been dealing with this issue for almost 18 months now. Every month, without fail, I get this right ear pain that spreads down to my shoulder and all the way to my hand. Lately, I found a lump in my neck, right on the ear line under my jaw, and it's on the same side where I feel the pain. I'm unsure if they're linked, but the lump seems to come and go. I've tried muscle relaxants; they help, but regular painkillers don't seem to do much. I'm wondering, what might this be?

View allI was laughing at a joke and inhaled quickly, and the chewing gum I was eating accidentally went down my throat. I'm not entirely sure if it went through my food pipe, but now I have a cloggy sensation in my throat, maybe because I coughed a lot trying to clear it. Im worried it might be stuck in my windpipe or somewhere near my throat bone. I don't have any breathing issues, cough, or fever, but the feeling is unsettling. Is it possible the gum got stuck in my windpipe, or could there be another reason for this sensation?
Its unlikely that the chewing gum went into your lungs, especially since you're not experiencing breathing problems or a cough. The sensation in your throat is likely due to irritation from coughing or mucus, not the gum being stuck in your windpipe. If the discomfort persists, its always a good idea to check with a doctor for peace of mind.

I've finished taking a course of Zerodol, SPCapod, and Pantocid for my cold, but my sore throat is still there. Can I try taking Azax 500 now? How many doses should I take?
Yes you can take AZITHROMYCIN 500mg once daily for 5 dyas,and do salt water gargling for a better result.

I've been dealing with post nasal drips for a while and was using Nasivion S spray and Montair LC, but now my new doctor switched me to Metaspray nasal spray and Histrafree 120 tablets. After taking them this morning, I noticed swelling and a discoloration on the roof of my mouth. Should I stop taking these meds or keep going with what the doctor prescribed?
It sounds like you may be experiencing an allergic reaction to the new medications. The swelling and discoloration of the hard palate in your mouth could be a sign of an allergic response. I recommend stopping the Metaspray nasal spray and Tab Histrafree 120 immediately. Please consult your doctor for further evaluation and management.
