I've noticed a white patch on the back of my throat, kind of behind the tonsils. I'm a bit concerned if this is something normal or could it be a sign of some disease? Could you help me figure this out?

I'm dealing with ear wax buildup and recently bought some Clearwater ear drops. I'm wondering, how many days should I be using these drops before considering a visit to the doctor to get my ears cleared out? I'm a bit anxious because I don't want to overuse the drops or postpone the doctor's appointment if it's necessary. Any advice on this?

-You can use Clearwater ear drops for 3-5 days to soften the ear wax before visiting a doctor. If there's no improvement, or if you experience discomfort, it's best to see a doctor for safe removal.

I woke up this morning with a really sore and swollen uvula, and it's quite painful. I've had a cough for the past few days and have been using Zeet cough syrup and drinking warm water with honey, which helped a bit, but the irritation is still there in my throat. Today, I also noticed a swollen vulva, and when I was cleaning my nose, there was some blood mixed with mucus. It's Sunday, so I can't see a doctor. What should I do?

either due to stuffy nose, you have been mouth breathing or due to acid reflux, airway mucosa is inflamed. This is the cause of uvular oedema and inflammation. Meet a good ENT Specialist
