Burning Throat and Tongue on left side
Hi i have a constant burning sensation at the start of the throat and tongue. The burns only on the left side. I am facing this isssue since december 2018. The pain is constant and i have never felt okay to this day. I am currently in severe pain. I did MRI too(report uploaded) and it says, they see a retention cyst in the right maxillary sinuses otherwise they couldnt find anything. I moved to Canada in september 2017 and this chronic condition started in December 2018 while on a vacation in Mumbai. I went to different doctors in Canada but they couldnt help me. What can be the cause and even if its acid or GERD related why its only on the left side and not the whole mouth. I intend to come to India for the treatment once this lockdown is over. I seriously need help as this pain has given me severe depression.

You would firstly require a throat endoscopy and i feel mri was unnecessary. Could be a combination of LPRD and sinusitis. Also a ct scan of sinuses is advisable.
