I've been experiencing a strange pricking sensation at the back of my tongue, deep in my throat. It's been happening since I had some roasted jeera powder mixed with lemon water. Thankfully, it doesn't hurt and I can still eat normally, but the sensation is definitely there. Do you have any advice on what I can do to ease this?

I've been having this really weird feeling for the past few days where I feel like I'm being choked while I'm asleep. It's like a tightness in my throat that makes me feel like I can't breathe. It doesn't happen every single night but it does occur 2 to 3 times a week. I usually wake up when it happens and I've noticed it often when I'm sleeping on my stomach. What could be causing this?

I've been dealing with some issues lately. After recovering from a skin infection last week, where I was on antibiotics and painkillers, I've now developed a canker sore on my tonsils and throat. It's making it really hard to eat or drink anything. Do you think this might be related to the medication I was on, or is it something else? What can I do to ease the discomfort?

That could be Tonsillitis, consume warm foods, visit ENT doctor for appropriate treatment.

My wife has a hole in her eardrum and we're really worried about surgery. Is there any way to heal it with just tablets or medicine, or does it have to be fixed with surgery? Can the hole close on its own without any procedure?

In many cases, a hole in the eardrum (perforation) heals on its own within a few weeks, especially if it's small. If it doesn't heal spontaneously, medical treatment might involve eardrum patches or surgery. Surgery, like tympanoplasty, is typically considered if the eardrum doesn't heal naturally or if there are complications like hearing loss or chronic infections
