I've been having these really painful mouth and throat ulcers. Drinking water feels impossible because it hurts so much, but oddly enough, eating doesn't seem to bother me as much. I'm just kind of worried and wondering what might be going on. Is there anything I can do to help relieve the pain, or should I be concerned about something more serious?

My doctor recommended septoplasty in early February because I often feel suffocated. I have a really important exam in mid-March if I get the surgery in February, will I recover enough to handle both? Right now I'm using fluticasone nasal spray and taking oral allergy meds

post 16 yrs sx is advised.continue fluticosone spray.

I'm having this constant throat irritation and it gets even worse after I eat. It feels like there's something stuck, and I just want to clear my throat all the time. It's really bothering me, especially at night, and it's making it hard for me to sleep. Do you have any idea why this might be happening or how I can ease this discomfort?
