I've been experiencing pain in my throat when I swallow for the past three days. I tried taking Azithromycin, but it hasn't made a difference. The pain is mostly on the left side of my throat. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?

View allI have DNS and trouble breathing through my nose, no sneezing though. Can you check the CT scan I attached and let me know if I really need septoplasty surgery?
A deviated septum, causing nasal obstruction and breathing difficulty, may or may not require surgery. A CT scan can help assess the severity of the deviation and guide treatment decisions. If the deviation is significant and causing symptoms like difficulty breathing, chronic sinus infections, or nasal obstruction impacting quality of life, septoplasty surgery might be recommended. However, if the deviation is mild and not causing significant symptoms, surgery might not be necessary. A consultation with an ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) specialist is crucial to determine the best course of action based on your specific situation and the CT scan results.

I'm really worried because for the past three months, I've had this constant excess mucus in my throat. I feel like I need to clear my throat all the time, and sometimes it even gets sore or I'll have a cough with this sticky mucus. It's frustrating because my throat occasionally turns red too. I'm trying to understand what's going on, but I'm completely stumped. What could be causing this? Is there something specific I should be looking out for or trying to manage it?
That could be due to allergy, identify the triggering factor and avoid it, maintain healthy lifestyle.

To overcome cough, throat pain, and ear pain, try a combination of steam inhalation, warm saltwater gargles, and over-the-counter medications like pain relievers, decongestants, and cough suppressants; additionally, stay hydrated, rest your voice, and use a humidifier to soothe the throat and ears
