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?

View allMy right nostril has been completely blocked for the past three months. The doctor diagnosed it as DNS and recommended surgery, but I've been trying homeopathy for a month with no relief. What else can I do to improve this?
If homeopathy hasn’t helped, an ENT might recommend septoplasty or radiofrequency ablation. Nasal sprays and steam inhalation may help temporarily.

I've been feeling this film of mucus on the right side of my throat, almost down to my chest, for the past few weeks. I remember having the same feeling last year. My right nostril is blocked, and there's pressure on my right ear. I used to smoke a lotabout six cigarettes a day for seven yearsbut quit last year. Since then, there's no cough, but the mucus feeling is still there. Could it be cancer? Sometimes, it seems like this sticky feeling on the right side even goes down to my stomach. I'm not experiencing heartburn though. I'm curious, what's the risk of throat cancer at 27 in India? Also, I used to smoke marijuana but stopped that last year too. What do you think?
That could be GERD, visit Gastroenterologist for evaluation and appropriate management

I'm a bit concerned about drinking alcohol while I'm taking Montek LC. My doctor prescribed it to me, and I'm not sure if there might be any side effects or interactions. Can you tell me if it's safe or if I should avoid drinking?
ideally there is no such interaction between them but as both will cause sedation,better not to consume alchohol when you are sick.
