Experiencing Difficulty In Breathing And Spots Around Throat
Hello, I m wondering what s wrong with my throat, I m trying to go to sleep, but then i get a fast heart beat in my throat. it s also hard to take deep breaths sometimes, I looked in the mirror behind my throat and it looks sort of red and no white spots. I believe i have sores /cuts on my tongue if that s anything.
As per your query you have red and white spots in throat and you have difficulty in breathing . Well the symptoms you mention in query occur due to many reasons like post nasal drip due to sinusitis , sore throat ( bacterial or viral ) , allergy , acid reflux ,tonsillitis or tonsil stones . As far as breathing difficulty is concern it is very important to seek medical attention . I would suggest you to consult ENT specialist for proper examination . Doctor may order throat swab test , viral culture test , CT scan , nasal endoscopy and physical examination . Doctor may prescribe antibiotics ( amoxicillin or penicillin ) , anti viral , decongestants , anti inflammatory and drug like sucralfate for healing of throat . For now do warm saline gargles and take anti histamine like benadryl .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
