I've had this bad throat for about a week, and I've been managing it with saltwater gargles. But last night, I experienced severe pain in my ear, so I took ALTHROCIN 500. The ear pain seems to be gone this morning, but now my ear feels closed. Is it alright that I took ALTHROCIN, especially since I've already taken two tablets?

View allI've had a sore and scratchy throat for the last four months. I've seen multiple ENT specialists, and each one gave me a different diagnosis one said acid reflux, but I don't feel any heartburn, another found ethmoid sinusitis on a CT scan and suggested post nasal drip as the cause. He prescribed meds for a month and mentioned sinus surgery if it didn't improve, but I didn't go back because I don't want surgery. The next ENT did another CT scan, which showed sinusitis and lymphadenitis, but he said everything was normal and it's just an infection. I don't feel normal though, and after searching online, I'm worried about long-term sore throat being linked to cancer. Could this just be an infection, or is there a chance it's something more serious?
A thorough ent check-up is advised to the patient,including endoscopy,and also a biopsy sample is taken to rule out malignancy .Ent opinion is advised.

I've noticed that my uvula seems to be swollen or maybe even infected. It's weird because it doesn't hurt when I swallow, but it just feels like something's there and kinda irritating. Should I be worried about this, and what might be causing it?
Considering your symptoms: Bad breath and tongue bumps may indicate oral thrush or poor oral hygiene. Alternating nasal blockage could be due to a deviated septum or nasal polyps. Frequent burping may be related to gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) or swallowing air. Given your underlying conditions (thyroid problem, vitamin D deficiency, calcium deficiency, and fatty liver), consult: A gastroenterologist to investigate GERD and fatty liver. An ENT specialist to examine your nasal passages and tongue. A dentist to assess your oral health and provide guidance on hygiene.
