Question 1

I'm experiencing this weird sensation starting from my chest up to my throat, almost like a gargling feeling. There's a lot of post nasal drip and now my whole throat is super irritated. It's giving me this intense nausea that makes me gag a lot, sometimes over 20 times. It happens every few months and it's so bad that I can't keep anything down. As soon as something hits my throat, it just comes back up. Any advice on how to deal with this?

Accepted Answer

The combination of post-nasal drip, gagging, and nausea sounds incredibly uncomfortable, but with the right management, you can start to see relief. Its crucial to figure out the underlying cause (allergies, GERD, sinusitis, etc.) so you can target the treatment appropriately. If this is a recurring problem, seeing an ENT specialist or a gastroenterologist might help pinpoint the exact cause and provide a more tailored treatment plan.

Question 2

I'm really worried about my throat. The doctors said its chronic pharyngitis, and Ive been on antibiotics and antiallergics. I tried ibuprofen for the swelling, but it just comes back when I stop taking it. Sometimes, my right ear hurtsmaybe its because of my tonsils? I also have gastritis, so could it be LPR or GERD? Im a singer, and its been two months since Ive been able to sing. It's really upsetting. I've already seen three doctors but no luck. What should I do?

Accepted Answer

As it is chronic Pharyngitis it needs long-term treatment,also consume warm foods, rest your voice until complete recovery visit ENT doctor for evaluation and appropriate treatment

Question 3

I'm noticing a bit of redness inside my left nostril. There's no pain, just some irritation, and I've been rubbing it a bit. I recently spent a day in a house that's under construction, and now it's feeling itchy. Could this be something serious that needs me to see an ENT, or is there a simple solution I can try at home?

Accepted Answer

For itchiness and irritation, you can use saline nasal spray and if you have dust allergy, use face mask in exposure to dust or pollution.

I've been diagnosed with sinus issues and my doctor recommended an endoscope surgery. Will this procedure completely fix my problem, and are there any common side effects like facial swelling or other complications I should know about?
