I've noticed for the past couple of months theres a bit of swelling under my jaw and around the sternocleidomastoid muscle. I'm a bit worried and wondering what might be going on. Do you have any advice on how I can treat it?

I've been dealing with post nasal drips for a while and was using Nasivion S spray and Montair LC, but now my new doctor switched me to Metaspray nasal spray and Histrafree 120 tablets. After taking them this morning, I noticed swelling and a discoloration on the roof of my mouth. Should I stop taking these meds or keep going with what the doctor prescribed?

It sounds like you may be experiencing an allergic reaction to the new medications. The swelling and discoloration of the hard palate in your mouth could be a sign of an allergic response. I recommend stopping the Metaspray nasal spray and Tab Histrafree 120 immediately. Please consult your doctor for further evaluation and management.

A small chicken bone is stuck in my throat, and I can feel it when I swallow, though it doesn't hurt. I've tried gargling and drinking water, but nothings worked. Should I go see someone right away or wait till tomorrow? What do you suggest?

There's this recurring swelling under my jaw, on the left side, that's been really worrying me. It seems to get hard and painful as it grows. Whenever I take antibiotics, the swelling decreases but never fully goes away, and it pops back up, especially after I eat non-veg food. Could this be something serious? What should I do about it?
