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've been dealing with swollen tonsils for about 10 months now, and its starting to worry me. It all started when my doctor said I had viral pharyngitis, which cleared up in a week. But then my left tonsil swelled up without any pain, and a few weeks later, the other one did too. It's been a long time now, and the swelling hasn't gone down. Plus, it's giving me bad breath and other problems. What could be going on, and should I be concerned?
Antibiotics such as Amoxicillin can be prescribed to help reduce the swelling and infection in your tonsils. If the antibiotics do not improve the condition, a tonsillectomy may be considered as a treatment option. Additionally, you can try using a saltwater gargle or throat lozenges to help alleviate the discomfort and bad breath associated with swollen tonsils.

I've been dealing with silent reflux for the past 4 months, and nothing seems to help not even medications like esomeprazole, pantoprazole, or antacids. I've tried lifestyle changes too, but my sore throat won't go away, and my voice keeps getting worse because of vocal cord damage. I've heard mixed opinions about surgery for LPR some say it doesn't work. What do you suggest I do?
A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.
