Could Feeling Of Something Stuck In Throat And Headache Suggest Problem In Tonsils?
im 17, female, no real major health issue, currently on no medication. so two weeks ago i got a uti, went to the doctor, was prescribed medicine then it went away. two days ago, i got another which i am now on medication for. since i woke up this morning, i have had trouble swallowing. it feels like there is something on the inside of the throat on the right side. about an hour ago i started to get a headache and my throat is getting worse. i have to tilt my head all the way back to swallow without feeling like there is something in my throat. it doesn t necessarily hurt to swallow but deffinetly is uncomfortable. is there a problem with my tonsils?
-I would start you on amoxicilin/clavulanic acid 625mg thrice a day for 7 days. (It is a prescription medicine so you need to visit nearest doctor to get it) - Take acetaminophen for pain.
- Take hot water in a cup, add 1 table spoon salt in it. Perform gargles (mouth wash) with it three times a day for at least 3 days. It will give soothing effect. AVOID: > Chilled water > Drinks > Spicy food If your condition remains same for 3 days visit your doctor.
