I'm really worried because for almost two years now, it feels like a lot of mucus is just building up in my mouth and throat, and it's like I constantly have to clear my throat. But lately, the past month or so, I've been feeling this burning sensation down my throat, especially when I breathe, and it's super bothersome. My throat and chest also feel really congested. I haven't had a fever, but it's been going on for so long now. What could be causing this?

I've had this headache and really sore throat for the past day, and now I'm feeling a bit nauseous too. I checked my throat out and my tonsils look normal, but I noticed I've got these three lumps in a triangle shape behind my uvula. Any idea what this could be? I'm thinking it might be the start of a cold, but I'm not sure how that's connected to the lumps.

The triangular formation of lumps behind your uvula, accompanied by headache, sore throat, and nausea, could be indicative of swollen lymphoid tissue ; however, it's essential to consult a such as an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist or a primary care physician, for a thorough examination and diagnosis, as the lumps may also be related to other conditions, such as tonsillar pillars or a viral pharyngitis.

I've been dealing with swollen tonsils for around 3 years now, and every so often, there's this thick yellow stuff that comes out from the tonsil crypts. I've tried various antibiotics, but nothing seems to help. There's no pain or fever, just the swelling. What could be going on, and is there something else I should try?

The persistent swollen tonsils with occasional thick yellow discharge from tonsil crypts, despite multiple antibiotic treatments, suggest a chronic condition, possibly chronic tonsillitis or recurring tonsilloliths (tonsil stones); consider consulting an Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) specialist for a thorough evaluation, which may include a tonsillectomy, cryptolysis, or other procedures to address the underlying cause and alleviate symptoms.
