I've noticed the right side of my tonsil is swollen, but there's no actual pain. It's just this little discomfort that's bugging me around that area. Is there any medication I could take for this?

I'm feeling really under the weather and have all the symptoms of strep throat, but my family is saying it's just a seasonal cold. I'm not so sure though. Could you help me figure out if it might actually be strep?

I've been dealing with this annoying "kich kich" sensation in my throat for quite a while now. It's starting to really bother me, and I'd love to figure out what's causing it and how to make it go away. Could this be something serious, or is it just a common issue that can be treated easily?

That could be due to allergy, identify the triggering factor and avoid it, maintain healthy lifestyle.
