Question 1

I've been having this sore throat type of pain whenever I swallow my saliva. It's weird though because I'm not coughing or anything. But tonight, I noticed there was a bit of blood in my phlegm, just once though, and now I'm kind of freaking out. I'm not showing any other signs of being sick, so I'm not sure what's going on. Any ideas on what this might be?

Question 2

My 2.5-year-old son has adenoids and has been on montair LC and abymys nasal spray at night for 8 weeks. He's been sleeping peacefully without snoring or breathing issues since starting the treatment and is very active. The doctor suggested surgery if things don't improve after 2 months, but I really want to avoid that. What should I do?

Accepted Answer

Since your son is responding well to current treatment and is sleeping peacefully, focus on continuing that treatment and monitoring his progress. A follow-up with the doctor is crucial to discuss his continued improvement and explore all available options, including delaying surgery if possible, if symptoms are minimal, treatment may not be necessary.

Question 3

I've been dealing with pain when I turn my neck and this weird feeling like something's stuck in my throat. An X-ray showed an elongated styloid process on my right side. I've seen multiple ENT and ortho doctors, tried antibiotics, pain meds, anti-inflammatory gargles, and tablets but nothing's helped. What's the best way to treat this - surgery, physical therapy, or something else?

Accepted Answer

It's likely you're experiencing Eagle syndrome, a condition caused by an elongated styloid process, which can cause pain in the throat, neck, and face, along with a feeling of something being stuck in the throat. The best treatment depends on the severity of your symptoms and whether conservative measures have been tried

I've been having this issue where I start brushing my teeth, and it seems like my throat starts producing a lot of mucus. It's kind of making me feel like I'm going to vomit. Any idea what's causing this or how I might be able to stop it?
