I've recently recovered from COVID, but I'm starting to feel some symptoms that worry me. I've got a sore throat, pain under my tongue, and irritation in my throat. I'm sneezing a lot too, and I have a history of maxillary sinus issues and nasal deviation. It feels like I might be dealing with COVID-like symptoms again, but I don't have a fever. Should I be concerned about this recurrence, and what can I do to alleviate these symptoms?

I've been having this weird sensation in my throat for the past month. It feels like something's stuck there, but it doesn't hurt. Sometimes it's right at the top of my throat, other times it's lower down. Eating and swallowing are totally fine, no problems there. Could you give me some advice on what's going on?

From your description, it sounds like you may be experiencing a sensation of something stuck in your throat without any pain or difficulty swallowing. This sensation is known as globus pharyngeus. It can be caused by various factors such as stress, post-nasal drip, or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). To help alleviate this sensation, you can try over-the-counter antacids like Tums (calcium carbonate) to see if it improves. Additionally, drinking plenty of water, avoiding acidic or spicy foods, and practicing relaxation techniques may also be beneficial. If the sensation persists or worsens, it is recommended to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
