I've been dealing with throat infections and a cough since January 17th, and it's really frustrating. My voice keeps getting hoarse, especially after I have ice cream or cold fruits. What's weird is that now my voice sounds hoarse even without a throat infection. I'm worried and not sure why this is happening. Could it be something more?

I'm trying to figure out what the main difference is between using oxymetazoline and xylometazoline hydrochloride nasal sprays. Is one riskier than the other? I'm a bit worried about choosing the right one.

Both have equal effect you can use both.

I've been dealing with chronic snoring for a while now and even had nasopharyngeal surgery, but it hasn't helped at all. What else can I try to get some relief? It's really affecting my sleep and I'm worried about why the surgery didn't work

Changing your sleep position, avoiding beverages containing alcohol and maintaining a weight that's healthy for you can reduce snoring. Medications. Cold and allergy medications relieve nasal congestion and help you breathe freely. Nasal strips.
