Lately, when I wake up in the morning and have a drink of water, I feel this strange pain in my throat, almost like something's stuck there. It's really bothering me, and I'm not sure what it could be. Any idea what might be causing this?

I'm really worried because I've had a cold for the past four days with constant sneezing, a runny nose, headaches, and some body aches. Now I've noticed blood in my saliva after trying to spit I had to clear my throat a bit forcefully, and that's when I saw it. I also feel like my throat is really dry and there's a mild pain on the right side of my throat. The bleeding stopped after happening about 5 or 6 times, but I noticed it after drinking water. What's going on? I'm really scared and would appreciate your advice.

That could be normal capillary bleed no need to worry as there is history of cold also,it's negligible.

I was diagnosed with sulcus vocalis in my right vocal cord and my doctor recommended voice therapy for a month but also mentioned surgery as an option. Can voice therapy alone fix this permanently or is surgery really necessary? I'm worried about going under the knife if therapy could work just as well.

ent opinion is advised .
