Talk to your provider if you have a condition or illness that increases your risk of vocal cord paralysis. These can include multiple sclerosis or Parkinson's, or recent chest or neck surgery. Voice therapy may prevent your condition from worsening and improve your vocal cord function.

I'm dealing with regular throat infections and I'm not sure what I should stay away from or what I should eat on a daily basis to help with it. Are there any medicines or maybe some kind of chewables or syrups that I should consider using regularly? I'm really looking for some advice on how to manage this.

Given the persistent, intermittent jaw pain and normal X-ray results, consider the following next steps: - Consult a dentist to rule out dental issues (e.g., TMJ disorder, tooth grinding) - Schedule an appointment with an oral and maxillofacial surgeon for further evaluation - Discuss with your ENT specialist about potential referrals to other specialists (e.g., neurologist, rheumatologist) While the pain may not be severe, it's essential to investigate the underlying cause to prevent potential complications. Possible causes: - Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder - Bruxism (teeth grinding) - Jaw misalignment - Nerve issues - Arthritis or other inflammatory conditions

I'm 33 weeks pregnant and dealing with a throat infection. I've been advised to take Taxim 200, but I've always associated it with being prescribed for diarrhea, while Amoxicillin was what I used for throat infections. I'm wondering if Taxim is really suitable for treating throat infections as well. Any insights?

Yes you can use Taxim for throat infection too no problem ot will work.
