I've been noticing these yellowish bumps at the back of my throat for a few months now, like maybe 3 or 4 months. It's got me kinda worried because I chew tobacco. Do you have any idea what this could be?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The yellowish bumps at the back of your throat could be due to a condition called oral thrush, which is a fungal infection caused by Candida yeast. To treat oral thrush, you can use clotrimazole troches. You can dissolve one troche slowly in your mouth five times a day for 14 days. Additionally, it's important to quit chewing tobacco as it can worsen the condition and lead to other health issues.

I was dealing with nasal congestion and ear pain, and my doctor prescribed Lasma Ab for two weeks. Unfortunately, I couldn't follow up with the doctor afterward, so I've been continuing the medication. My nasal congestion seems to have improved, but I'm a bit worried. Could taking Lasma Ab for an extra two weeks do any harm?
If you have already taken Lasma AB for four weeks instead of the prescribed two, it is important to stop the medication and contact your doctor to assess whether any adjustments or further actions are needed.

I've been noticing that every time I wash my hair with lukewarm water, my head feels really cold afterward. It's strange because I also end up with a sore throat, especially when I've been caught in the rain too. I'm starting to wonder if there's a connection here or if I'm doing something wrong. Can you help me figure out why this might be happening?
You may be experiencing cold symptoms triggered by changes in temperature. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try taking an over-the-counter medication like Tylenol Cold + Flu Severe for relief. Additionally, you can consider using a throat lozenge like Strepsils to soothe your sore throat. Make sure to stay warm and dry to prevent further discomfort.
