Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I think it s the pollen which is still relartively high, but this is the worst ever. Late in the day when I leave work and am walking briskly (I work in Manhattan) I sometimes experience burning in the throat and upper chest. I also noticed I have a swollen gland on my neck now too and a slight sore throat. What might it be? I have a routine physical with blood work in advance next week and will mention it if I still have it.
