I've been smoking a bit of weed for the past four years, not a lot, but consistently. Lately, I've had a cold, and now every morning I wake up with a really dry throat and this burning sensation. I'm not sure if it's just because of the cold or if the weed is causing it too. Is there a risk of developing serious throat issues from using weed frequently?

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.

Why am I experiencing these symptoms now when it wasn't a problem before?

I've been having a rough time with my throat lately. About two weeks ago, I had strep throat and got antibiotics for it, but even after finishing them, this cough just won't quit. Now my throat's starting to hurt again, I'm coughing up this brown-yellow phlegm, and I'm running a fever with a headache. It's so bad that I almost cough until I want to throw up. I'm stuck wondering if you can get strep throat again so soon, or if maybe it's something else entirely. What do you think?

You might have developed rhinosinusitis with post nasal drip.. need to be confirmed by local examination.. visit an ENT specialist for proper assessment and treatment..
