I have been experiencing a throat problem for the past few years. After speaking continuously for 15–30 minutes, my throat becomes dry, heavy, and eventually chokes up, making it difficult to continue speaking. This significantly affects my work, as I regularly conduct meetings and presentations.
I consulted two ENT specialists, underwent endoscopic examinations, and tried allergy treatment, inhaled medication, Ayurvedic treatment, and Panchakarma. Despite spending nearly ₹1 lakh, I have not found a lasting solution.
I am looking for a specialist with experience in diagnosing and treating similar voice or throat disorders related to prolonged speaking, as previous evaluations have not identified the underlying cause.
I have been facing mouth ulcer issues for a long time. I have visited multiple doctors before, and every doctor suggested I might have some B12 deficiency or other deficiencies. I have taken pills multiple times and done some blood tests, but the ulcers haven't healed completely. They occur every month or two, and sometimes even within two weeks. Could you please suggest how I can identify what this symptom is and why it usually occurs? Please note that the pain is severe once the ulcer appears.
Dear Doctor,
Something pricked the inside of my mouth on July 2nd. Three days later, it turned into a wound-like sore. Even now, five days later, it hasn't healed. It hurts when I eat or press against it with my tongue, though there is no pain or bleeding otherwise. Please suggest a treatment; I am worried.
I’ve had mild throat discomfort since around June 4. The pain is about 2/10, occurs randomly around 7–8 times a day, lasts only 1–3 seconds, and is not consistent. After visiting a general physician and taking the prescribed medication, the stinging pain resolved. However, I now occasionally experience random episodes of dry throat. I’m also currently getting a wisdom tooth on the same side. I’ve attached a photo of my throat for reference (my tonsils have been visibly enlarged since childhood). I’m also very anxious because I gave oral sex to my boyfriend in 2023 and 2024. Last year, he developed an HPV wart on his palm, which was diagnosed by a doctor. He has never had any genital warts. I’m worried whether my current throat symptoms could be related to HPV and would like to know if any evaluation or tests are necessary.
My 5-month-old daughter is bathed daily. After every bath, my mother-in-law blows really hard into each ear to remove any water that might have entered. My baby has no pain, discharge, fever, or noticeable hearing problems, but could this practice have caused any damage to her ears so far? I am worried. I came to know blowing air into baby's ear is not safe
