I'm dealing with this annoying dryness in my throat and mouth every early morning around 4 or 5 am since November. I saw a doctor and had my blood sugar tested through a urine testit was normal. The meds helped for a week, but then the dryness came back. Also, I have this long-term nasal blockage since 2011 after a viral fever. I cant smell much unless my nasal passage clears up or during a cold. Plus, I catch a cold every month or two. I'm confused about who to see for this issue because online it seems like these symptoms could be throat infection, prediabetes, or sinus problems. Could you guide me on which specialist to consult and the right treatment to pursue?

View allI'm really struggling with a bad cold and my nose is completely blocked. Luckily, I don't have a fever right now. I currently have some crocin cold and flu tablets, but I recently heard that they might be banned by the government. Is it still safe for me to take them? I don't have any other medication on hand.
Yes you can take it and visit doctor for appropriate treatment.

I'm dealing with this ongoing issue where my throat really hurts when I'm drinking or eating, and it feels like the pain stretches from my throat to my right ear. It's been happening for about three months now. What's going on with this, and should I be concerned?
could be due to inflammation or infection in that area. I recommend taking a course of antibiotics like Amoxicillin. Additionally, you can take over-the-counter pain relief like Acetaminophen 500mg as needed for pain relief. Gargling with warm salt water several times a day can also help alleviate the discomfort. If the symptoms persist, it is advisable to consult an ENT specialist for further evaluation and management.
