Ive been noticing this really unpleasant smell coming from my throat (not my mouth) for about 40 to 50 days now. It hangs around for a day or two, and it's happened three times so far. Im also dealing with a dry cough that pops up whenever I'm in air-conditioned places or when there's a lot of dust around, but it's not severe and doesn't last long. Plus, I get body aches once a week that last up to two to three days. Im kind of worried about what these symptoms might mean. Which type of doctor should I see to figure out whats going on?

I drank and smoked a lot the other night, and I ended up vomiting pretty badly. I also smoked and drank again later that night. Since then, I've had a sore throat, but what really worried me was when I noticed traces of blood when I cleared my throat a few times yesterday. It's not happening anymore, but it got me thinking. Could this be something serious, like throat cancer, or is it just because I hurt my throat from the drinking and smoking binge? Now I just have a sore throat, and every now and then, I feel this random pinch in my left chest muscle. Should I be worried?
That could be Pharyngitis consume warm foods and maintain oral hygiene if it's becoming worse visit ENT doctor for appropriate treatment.

I've been diagnosed with a deviated septum to the right side and concha bullosa on the right as well. My doctor recommended surgery, but I'm not sure if it's really necessary. What are the risks if I don't get it done, and how much would surgery actually help my symptoms?
If your deviated septum and concha bullosa aren't causing significant breathing problems, sleep disturbances, or other quality-of-life issues, surgery might not be necessary, according to the Cleveland Clinic. However, if symptoms are bothersome, surgery can offer significant relief with good success rates.
