I've been experiencing a tightness/tug at the base of jaw or at the top end of my throat. I've been breathing a lot through my mouth as a way of coping up with my anxiety. Every morning for the last 3 days I wake up with this feeling of tightness/tug. It is not hindering my swallowing, but still it's very uncomfortable.
Hello Doctor,
I have been facing a persistent issue of sticky throat, especially in the morning. When I spit after waking up, thick, yellowish, thread-like mucus comes out. Sometimes, I also notice small round food particles along with the mucus. While swallowing, my throat feels coated and sticky.
My tongue is always whitish with some rashes/patches and feels heavy. Occasionally, I notice slight blood in my spit while brushing in the morning.
I had last year treated H pylori , but symptoms still persist.
Could this be due to throat infection, sinus issue, acidity (GERD), or something else? Is it related to my previous H. pylori infection? What could be the reason for food particles in spit and white tongue coating?
Please suggest possible diagnosis, required tests, and treatment.
Thank you.
Hey doc, i have ocd so i did frequent intentional coughs. And got bleeding like in august,December 2025 once.
Then in january and march 2026 once.
Whenever I do not cough I don't get any blood.
During feb 27- march 5 2026, i had a cold and cough. At that time I didn't get any blood.
Is it normal to get a little streak whenever we cough hard and intentionally many times?
I also have a history of smoking from
2019-2022= 3 a day
2024 aug-2026 march= 9 a day.
So I was worried that maybe my smoking had caused CA.
Kuch bhi thandi chiz khao special banaana to gale me khich khich hoti hai. Or o sardi khasi me convert hota hai. Kabhi bhi banana khao to hota hi hai. Throat me infection hone ke baad sardi hoti hai or khasi hona confirm hai..har baar yahi hota hai.
Or khasi 20 days tak rehta hi hai.
I have been suffering from severe cough for the last 4 years. Doctors told me it may be an allergy cough. Sometimes the coughing becomes so intense that I even lose control of my bladder while sitting. I want to know if there is any allergy test that can help identify what exactly I am allergic to and how it can be treated.
