I have ichy and dry throat for 2 weeks. What I need to do?

Female | 51

Having an itchy, dry throat can be annoying, especially if it’s been going on for two weeks. It could be caused by allergies, a virus, or even dry air. You might feel a scratchy sensation when swallowing or talking, and you might also experience coughing or a hoarse voice. To soothe your throat, drink plenty of water, use a humidifier, and suck on lozenges. If it doesn’t get better, have it checked by an ENT specialist.

Lingering nasal drips have mucus flowing down your throat's back constantly. Green mucus often signifies an infection. Being allergic to coconut might irritate and worsen this issue. To relieve symptoms, use saline nasal sprays and stay hydrated well. If it doesn't get better, consider consult an allergist/ ENT specilaist who can help further.

Long-lasting colds and coughs may point to sinus troubles. For relief, a sinus CT scan is wise. This deeper look inside his sinuses explains the issue. Then a treatment matching his case can start. The skilled ENT will guide the next steps based on scans.

Are you possibly interested in the problem with your ear and the pain in your jaw? These various symptoms include ear infections, fluid buildup, and the possible jaw joint problems, among others. Although the sensation of having something stuck can be disconcerting, it is advisable not to play a doctor and communicate with the doctor. I suggest making an appointment with your healthcare provider in order to be assessed. Their examination will reveal the exact problem you might be suffering from, they will solve your worries and offer the right type of treatment.

Hace 12 dias me hicieron limpieza de oido con otorrino por necesidad, usaron pinzas e instrumental médico y fue algo molesto porque tenia pegado cerumen. Al salir de la consulta tenia solo de un lado una sensación como de eco y tener algo dentro pero el médico me dijo que era por la manipulación. Al dia de hoy continuo, solo con sensación de tirantez y tener algo pegado, ha ido mejorando mucho desde la limpieza, a veces mejora mucho casi al 100 pero luego la vuelvo a sentir un poco. Es normal y puedo seguir esperando o necesito visitar de nuevo un médico?

Female | 36

After having your ear cleaned out, it's quite common to feel some discomfort or sensation of fullness, especially if there was a lot of wax buildup. The echoing feeling and sensation of something being there can happen due to the manipulation during the cleaning. It's positive that you've noticed improvement since the procedure. Sometimes, residual symptoms like tightness or a slight feeling of blockage can linger for a bit. I'd recommend giving it a bit more time, maybe another week or so, to see if these sensations continue to improve. If things persist or worsen, then it would be a good idea to revisit your ENT specialist for a follow-up, just to make sure everything is progressing as it should.

Female | 25

You might have pharyngitis, which is inflammation and swelling in the back of your throat. The yellow and white bumps could be pus pockets, often caused by viral or bacterial infections. Smoking can irritate your throat and make things worse, so it's a good idea to stop for a while. To soothe your throat, drink plenty of fluids, gargle with warm salt water, and avoid smoking. If the problem doesn’t improve, it’s best to see an ENT specialist for further advice and treatment.

Your symptoms do point towards chronic sinusitis, which can indeed cause all the issues you've been facing like the loss of smell, congestion, headaches, and even the anxiety and fast heartbeat episodes. It's good that you've been proactive in seeking help and trying medications, but it seems like we might need to explore other treatment options.

Female | 31

An ear infection can cause discomfort, including pain, drainage, and sometimes hearing difficulties. Typically, these are due to bacteria or viruses. Since you're already on antibiotics and using ear drops, you're on the right path for recovery. Make sure to complete the full course of your antibiotics even if you start feeling better. Staying hydrated and resting will also aid healing. If symptoms worsen or persist, please reach out to your ENT specialist for further evaluation.

Maybe your nasal symptoms suggest chronic rhinosinusitis. Thick, dark reddish-brown mucus can flow uncontrollably, often worse at night. Inflamed sinuses likely cause this issue. Saline sprays may provide relief. Consulting an ENT doctor helps evaluate and treat the underlying problem.

You are dealing with problems in your left ear. That's good you're asking for help. A faster heartbeat during surgery can be scary. It may be from stress or another issue. Your ear hole could hurt. Getting a brain MRI is smart to see what's going on inside your head. The MRI gives pictures to figure out the problem. Be sure to talk to your doctor about the results and what to do next.

You may have dryness in your mouth and throat, causing your throat to dry. This may happen when you are not drinking enough fluids or if the air around you is too dry. To alleviate this issue, ensure you drink plenty of water and use a humidifier in the bedroom where possible. Additionally, sucking on sugarless candies can help stimulate saliva production. However, if these suggestions do not provide relief, consider seeking help from an ENT specialist.

It appears that you have a prolonged sore throat which may be due to hidden factors such as allergies, post-nasal drip, or even acid reflux. Therefore, it is possible to feel discomfort if speaking for a long time. You can reduce the symptoms by keeping your fluid intake high and by using a humidifier in the case of dry environments. Patients should also use Throat lozenges. On the other hand, since this is a recurring issue over many years, I very strongly suggest speaking with a healthcare professional.

I have excess ear wax which has hardened like stone.

Female | 27

Built-up ear plug can create an issue of a feeling of being uncomfortable, a reduction in one’s hearing ability, or the illusion of fullness in the ear. Mainly, it is the misuse of cleaning methods and anatomy of the jeopardized narrow ear canals. The other reason might be a skin disorder. To dissolve the wax that has become firm, try mineral oil- or saline solution-based, over-the-counter drops. To prevent earwax from being pushed deeper inside, do not use cotton swabs. If the healing process at home is ineffective or you are in pain when doing it, it is recommended to see a doctor.
