I've been having this sinus problem that's got me worried. After I eat things like chocolates, milk products, or ice cream, I start coughing and bringing up sputum. It's like I catch a cold with chest congestion, but I don't actually have breathing issues otherwise. It's just when I consume these cold items that the coughing kicks in. Why am I experiencing these symptoms now when it wasn't a problem before?

I'm a bit worried because I found two white spots on my uvula. I recently came back from a trip where I was talking loudly, and my throat ended up red and swollen. I just noticed the white spots today, although I don't have any fever symptoms. It just feels like there's a hair stuck in my throat. What could this be, and should I be concerned?

Since you have no fever symptoms and it feels like something is stuck in your throat, it could also be related to irritation from talking loudly. To help with the symptoms and treat any possible infection, I recommend using a throat spray like Chloraseptic to help numb the throat and reduce discomfort. Additionally, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like Tylenol (acetaminophen) to help with any pain or inflammation. Gargling with warm salt water can also help soothe the throat. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to see a doctor for further evaluation and treatment.

Can Sinarest 500mg actually cure a sinus infection for good? And what symptoms does it really help get rid of permanently? I'm curious if it'll really help or if I should be looking at something else.
