I've been experiencing bitterness in my saliva for the past two days. It was really noticeable this morning before I brushed my teeth. What could be causing this weird taste?

That could be due to alterations in taste,it's not that your saliva is bitter it's your taste sensation,no need to worry take Bvon tablet for a week and consume balanced diet,if it's becoming worse visit ENT doctor for appropriate treatment.

I've been noticing these yellowish bumps at the back of my throat for a few months now, like maybe 3 or 4 months. It's got me kinda worried because I chew tobacco. Do you have any idea what this could be?

The yellowish bumps at the back of your throat could be due to a condition called oral thrush, which is a fungal infection caused by Candida yeast. To treat oral thrush, you can use clotrimazole troches. You can dissolve one troche slowly in your mouth five times a day for 14 days. Additionally, it's important to quit chewing tobacco as it can worsen the condition and lead to other health issues.

I've been dealing with a throat infection for the past four days now and started antibiotics two days ago, but I'm not experiencing much relief. Is this normal, or should I be worried? Is there anything else I could be doing to help speed up the healing process?
