I've been dealing with a sore throat that started a couple of months ago. I took antibiotics for a week, and it seemed to clear up. But theres this weird feeling, like something's stuck on the left side of my throat. After meals, tiny food particles and debris get trapped there, and I often have to gargle to get rid of them. There's no pain, fever, or cough, but I recently removed a tonsil stone myself. Should I be worried that this is something serious? Im concerned and would appreciate some advice. Oh, and the picture I took is inverted, where left means right and right means left.

Yellow liquid discharge from the ear can be a sign of an ear infection, such as otitis externa or otitis media. It's essential to consult an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist or a primary care physician for evaluation. They may perform an otoscopy, take a sample for testing, or prescribe antibiotics. Keep the ear dry and avoid inserting objects. Schedule an appointment with a healthcare professional as soon as possible.
