I've got these sore blister-like things at the back of my throat, and I'm kinda worried. My sister thinks it's strep throat, but someone else mentioned it might be related to something sexual, while another person just said they're blisters. I'm confused and a bit concerned. Could you help me figure out what might be going on?

View allI'm experiencing pain in my throat whenever I swallow saliva, but it seems to be less noticeable when I'm eating or drinking. The thing is, the pain shifts from one side to the other, sometimes on the right and then back to the left, and I'm also feeling a slight discomfort near my ear. Any advice on what might be going on?

I'm really worried about this white spot on my tonsil. I'm not experiencing any pain or discomfort, but I can't help but wonder if it might be something serious like cancer or another disease. Could you please help me understand what it might be?
Seek immediate medical attention. In the meantime, try: - Drink a glass of water to help dislodge the bone - Eat a small amount of soft food like banana or bread - Avoid coughing or gagging, which can push the bone further A doctor or ENT specialist can: - Visually examine your throat - Use specialized instruments to remove the bone - Provide pain relief medication if needed

I'm a heavy snorer at 46 years old, 5'10 and 89 kgs. I've been using a CPAP machine but find it uncomfortable. Different ENTs have given me mixed advice some recommend surgery while others say I should lose weight. Is there a permanent solution for snoring that actually works?
Snoring with CPAP intolerance can be treated with UPPP or weight loss—ENT evaluation with sleep study is key.
