What's going on with me? The right side of my throat is really swollen with this big white pus pocket in the tonsillar crypt and my lymphoid is swollen too. It kind of feels like there's a deep ear infection on that side. I'm also dealing with extreme fatigue, body aches, hot flashes, and cold sweats. Any idea what this could be?

I'm dealing with tonsil stones for the past year and I've noticed some small stones in my tonsils. I've managed to remove a few, but can't get rid of the ones on the outer part. Sometimes it feels like something's stuck in my throat, but I don't have any ear pain, fever, swelling, or sore throat. The only issue is a dry throat. What should I do next? How can I relieve this problem without surgery? I've been gargling with Betadine daily. Could this be chronic tonsillitis? Any advice would be really helpful.
Consult an ENT specialist to rule out underlying conditions like allergies, sinusitis, or non-allergic rhinitis. Consider: 1. Allergy testing 2. Nasal endoscopy 3. Imaging tests (CTMRI scans) Continue medications as prescribed, and explore additional measures like humidifiers, saline nasal sprays, and avoiding irritants.

I'm a heavy snorer at 46 years old, 5'10 and 89 kgs. I've been using a CPAP machine but find it uncomfortable. Different ENTs have given me mixed advice some recommend surgery while others say I should lose weight. Is there a permanent solution for snoring that actually works?
Snoring with CPAP intolerance can be treated with UPPP or weight loss—ENT evaluation with sleep study is key.
