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?

View allI've had this feeling like something is stuck in my throat for the past week and it's really starting to worry me. I've got this habit of using tobacco and pan masala, and I'm scared it might be something serious like cancer. What do you think?
Stuck fish bone can be concerning! _Possible Risks_ 1. _Infection_: If the bone remains in your throat, it can cause an infection, leading to symptoms like swelling, redness, and increased pain. 2. _Abscess formation_: In rare cases, the bone can cause an abscess to form in the throat. _Removal Methods_ 1. _Drink plenty of water_: Encourage the bone to move down your throat by drinking plenty of water. 2. _Eat soft foods_: Consume soft, sticky foods like bananas, yogurt, or marshmallows to help dislodge the bone. 3. _Try the "cough and swallow" method_: Cough gently and then swallow to try to dislodge the bone. _Medical Attention_ 1. _Visit an ENT specialist_: If you're unsure whether the bone is still stuck or if you experience severe symptoms, consult an ENT specialist. 2. _Endoscopy or X-ray_: The doctor may perform an endoscopy or X-ray to locate the bone and determine the best course of action. _When to Seek Immediate Medical Attention_ 1. _Severe pain or difficulty swallowing_ 2. _Shortness of breath_ 3. _Fever or chills_ 4. _Blood in your saliva or cough_

I've been diagnosed with mild eardrum retraction in my left ear, and my PTA impedance test showed an A-type graph in tympanometry. Will this resolve on its own with medication, or is surgery usually needed? How long does it typically take to heal?
