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 allI'm having this weird issue where every time I hiccup or burp, my right ear really hurts. The burps are happening way more often than usual. What's going on with that? Should I be worried? Any advice would be super helpful.

I'm having a really hard time swallowing anything, even my own saliva, since yesterday. Im a bit worried because a few days ago I had a throat infection and a cold, but was feeling better last week. Plus, I ate some really hot food yesterday and Im not sure if that messed things up again. Could that be causing my throat pain?
You seem to be suffering from acute pharyngo-tonsillitis which is a common type of throat infection. You may need to take antibiotics and painkillers along with antiseptic mouth gargle for few days for faster recovery

I've been dealing with a dry throat for the past three days. A few days ago, I had this sensation like something was caught in my throat, which eventually went away on its own, but now my throat just feels really dry. I get a mild cough, and there are times when I feel like I might have a fever, but then it disappears just as quickly. I've noticed some occasional chest pain, and sometimes my stomach acts up with gurgling twice a day. The only thing I've been taking is Calpol. It's particularly uncomfortable at night because the dryness makes it hard to sleep. Though there's no pain while swallowing or in the throat, it's beginning to bother me. Can you suggest any medicines or something I can do to help with this?
take tablet tusq for 5days
