Question 1

I've been drinking buttermilk for the last couple of weeks and since then, I've developed a cold. Whenever I try to clear my throat, I end up with mehendi-colored phlegm, and if I push too hard, there's sometimes a bit of blood in it. My throat hurts so much that I can't swallow anything. What should I do next?

Accepted Answer

take tablet amoxyclav for 5 days , twice a day

Question 2

I'm really struggling with tinnitus and I'm desperate to find a solution. It's been about 4 months now and I've already tried Otocap, Goonj Forte, Lecope, and Cefakind 250, but they only helped reduce the sound by about 50%. My tinnitus started from depression, high blood pressure, and constipation. I'm curious if there's any doctor in India who's successfully treated someone with tinnitus and they fully recovered. I've attached my audiogram report too. Can you share any advice or experiences with treatments that really worked?

Accepted Answer

take treatment

Question 3

I've been dealing with constant ear blockages and this uncomfortable feeling in my throat and chest ever since I got over COVID three months ago. It's weird because whenever I try to spit, I get this sharp pain in my ear, throat, and chest all at once. I feel like there's something stuck in my throat, and it's getting hard to breathe sometimes. Could this be related to post-COVID symptoms? I also had anxiety and palpitations after COVID and was on ivabradine and Nexito Plus. Any idea what's going on with me?

Accepted Answer

The pain under the left side of the tongue could be due to:

1. Sublingual gland infection or inflammation
2. Salivary gland stone
3. Lingual tonsillitis
4. Trauma or injury
5. Oral cancer (rarely)

Consult an ENT specialist or an oral surgeon for a thorough evaluation and diagnosis. They may recommend:

1. Imaging tests (e.g., ultrasound, CT scan)
2. Biopsy or fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC)
3. Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications
