So, I accidentally burnt my throat eating hot food yesterday. I tried drinking water, gargling with Dispirin, and even used honey, which helped a bit. But this morning, my throat's really hurting, and it looks like a gland, maybe my tonsils, is swollen. My doctor's only available during the weekany advice on what I can do until then?

I'm noticing some blood spots in the mucus from my nose and occasionally when I cough or clear my throat, it comes from my mouth too. This just started a couple of days ago. Should I be worried about this? What could be causing it?

I'm dealing with a wet throat pretty often lately and sometimes I get a cough in the morning or evening. I saw a general physician, did a chest X-ray, blood test, and spit test, and everything came back normal. I've been on medicine for 10 days, but I don't feel like it's getting any better. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

Consider consulting an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist for further evaluation, as a wet throat and persistent cough despite normal tests and medication may indicate underlying conditions like acid reflux, postnasal drip, or allergies; the ENT specialist can perform a thorough examination, potentially using endoscopy or allergy testing, to identify the root cause and recommend targeted treatment.
