I've had a small chicken bone stuck in my throat for three days now, and I'm feeling some discomfort in my ear and the left side of my neck. I'm worried and can't tell if the bone is still there. Could it cause these symptoms? What should I do next?

View allI've had this throat infection for a few days now, and it's just not going away. It started with pain and soreness, and I took oflox200 for three days, which helped at first. But then, only a few days later, the symptoms came back even worse. This time, I've been on Azithromycin 250 mg, Ofloxacin, Ornidazole, and Levocetirizine for three days, but the pain is still there. I did feel a little better on the first day, but the soreness and pain are back, especially when I swallow. Theres only one day of this course left, and I'm worried because theres no real improvement. Can you suggest another antibiotic that might actually work for me?
Krishna, considering your persistent throat infection symptoms despite completing two antibiotic courses, it's essential to revisit your diagnosis and treatment plan; consult an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist to rule out other underlying conditions, such as tonsillitis, strep throat, or a viral infection; they may prescribe alternative antibiotics like Amoxicillin-Clavulanate, Clindamycin, or Cefpodoxime, or order further tests like a throat culture or rapid strep test to guide treatment; in addition, maintain good hydration, gargle with salt water, and use throat lozenges to help soothe your throat

So, I was cleaning my ear with a Q-tip and noticed a bit of blood on it. It hurt a little too. Should I be worried about this and consider seeing a specialist?

I'm feeling really worried because after drinking hot water all day the day before yesterday, I started having trouble breathing, especially at night, and my nose is all congested. I've already tried inhaling steam, but I'm not sure what might be causing this or what else I should do. Can you help me figure this out?
