It's hard for me to explain but i will try. my left glad is sore but not swollen, i have not had my normal enery and just feel like going to sleep, but don't. light headed. This started after dinner last night, I eat a salad and just as I swallowed felt like something big in my throat and it was to late to keep it from going down. Not sure what it was since it was just salad. Feels like it may still be lodged in my throat.No fever.

Hello

I read your query about sore throat and feeling of some thing is struck in throat, these all developed after taking dinner yesterday.

You are having weired feeing and there is no fever but experence tiredness and feeling like going to sleep. Your problem arises after taking salad, and still feeling like big piece of salad is trapped in throat.

It is possible that piece of food may be trapped in pharynx and till anything is in throat it will cause infection ad thus sore throat had developed. Now you should consult any ENT doctor to examine and remove it.

Till you are waiting for ENT Doctor you may take-

(a) Tab Ibuprofen.

(b) Warm saline gargling.

(c) Tab Cetrizine.

I hope you are clear about your query now.

Regards.
