I've noticed that one side of my soft palate seems to rise whenever I try to spit, and it's pretty painful. But oddly enough, I don't feel any pain when I'm swallowing food or drinks. What could be causing this?

View allIve been feeling this sharp sensation on the right side of my neck whenever I drink water. It started with cold water, but now it happens with regular water too. It's been a couple of days since this started. Any idea what could be causing this?
It sounds like you may be experiencing throat pain or sensitivity. This could be due to various reasons such as throat infection, muscle strain, or even acid reflux. I recommend taking a pain reliever like acetaminophen (e.g. Tylenol) as needed for the discomfort. Additionally, you can try using a throat lozenge or gargling with warm salt water to soothe the irritation. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it would be best to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I've noticed a bump or pimple-like thing on my uvula, and it's been there for about a month now. There's no pus or anything. I'm really curious and a bit worried about what this could be. Could you provide some insight into what kind of condition this might be?
its a case of uvulitis Gargle with warm salt water: Gargling with warm salt water can help reduce swelling and relieve pain. Mix one teaspoon of salt in one cup of warm water. Gargle every hour. Drink fluids: Drinking plenty of fluids can help ease a sore uvula.

So, I had a tympanoplasty type 1 ear surgery back on May 10, 2018, and my doctor removed some gel forms on June 5, but mentioned there's still a bit left on my eardrum. They can't clear it yet 'cause the doc's on leave, and advised me to use otocin o ear drops, four drops daily, until then. My worry is, when I put the ear drops in before bed, they don't seem to drain properly. Even after sleeping for 7 to 8 hours, the drops just come out when I wake up. Is it okay for the medicine to stay in my ear for that long, or should I be worried about how they're not draining? How long are ear drops typically supposed to stay in the ear anyway?
