Common Questions and Answers about Throat pain due to allergies

throat

Avatar f tn ve read a few complain of hoarseness, due to allergies. Acid reflux can cause hoarseness due to acid corriding the throat. Best thing to do is continue to seek a physician, till you discover one that can resolve your complaint. As for thyroid, I had a very large one, did not have any voice difficulty, only swallowing/breathing. I remember constantly swallowing, to readjust my throat. Have you seen an endocronologist? If so, what did they state.
Avatar n tn I have never seen allergies cause pain to this degree. Plus, it's hard to call something 'allergies' when there isn't a huge component of allergic-type symptoms (sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes, itching). How old is your daughter? For young kids, this could be teething pain. She could have bad acid reflux. There could be something else going on too. My advice would be to see a different doctor (any Pediatric ENT specialists in your area?) and get another exam/opinion.
Avatar n tn i kinda have sore throat and sneezing might due to exposure to air conditioner because i just got back to singapore..
Avatar f tn I moved last summer, so I attributed it to allergies flaring up, due to uncommon pollens and stuff in the air. It began overnight...the next day, I was incredibly tired, nearly falling asleep in all my classes. Then, I went on to getting a high fever, really bad chills, a loss of appetite for the most part, and a worse cough and cold. Over the past few days, (on my right-hand side), one of my upper teeth has begun to hurt really bad.
Avatar f tn which connect the middle ear to the throat, this balances the air pressure in the ears. This tube can get blocked due to infections of the throat, which can give lead to a feeling of fullness in the ears. This can also result in infection of the ears. Sinus infections also cause headaches. Blurring of vision may or may not be related to sinusitis. You will need to consult your primary care physician for proper assessment, who may then refer you to an ENT specialist if needed.
Avatar f tn Hello everyone! I should first appologize for the length of this post. I'm really hoping someone can help me. I've been suffering from inflammation of the nose, throat and ears for several months now. It all began in April. I went to my doctor for a routine exam and had him look at my right ear and throat as I had woken up that morning with slight pain. He said I had an ear and throat infection and e-prescribed me an antibiotic.
Avatar n tn It can also be due to post nasal drip (if the child has recurrent upper respiratory infection/sinusitis etc) or due to gastric reflux. It can also be a vocal tic. Seasonal allergies can irritate the throat and cause the urge to clear the throat. Please show your child to an ENT specialist and pediatrician. Take care! The medical advice given should not be considered a substitute for medical care provided by a doctor who can examine you.
Avatar m tn Today I failed at getting thru an open MRI. I have allergies and it is very difficult for me to lay flat on my back. What happens is My throat feels like its closing & it gets harder to breathe thru my nose. In a very short period of time mucus will get stuck in my nose and throat. Naturally, I get very agitated. I was in the machine today about 15 minutes when I had to call it quits.
Avatar n tn I have the same thing and it is caused by postnasal drip due to allergies. I have seasonal allergies but also allergic to lots of indoor things like dust. Also, certain foods can do that. Like, if you have something that is really salty.
Avatar m tn Your symptoms could be due to a post nasal drip, which can cause a chronic irritation in the throat. This could be due to a sinus infection, a cold or a chronic allergy. It could be sinusitis, if it is accompanied by nasal stuffiness and facial pain or pressure. Post nasal drip could also be due to allergens. These are substances like pollen, dust, animal dander, certain foods, insect venoms and certain medications.
Avatar n tn I used to have sever throat pain. After being treated for multiple things and taking every antibiotic and pain killer in the world the doctors finally gave me a steroid shot. Within an hour I was feeling much better. You could ask your physician to take a look at your sinus, as that could be the cause of your problem.
Avatar m tn You may be experiencing this. If you have postnasal drip from allergies, try to avoid the things you are allergic to. This can be dust, smoke, pollen, pets or chemical fumes. An over-the-counter antihistamine-decongestant combination may help stop your allergies and your cough. Talk to your doctor about this for proper management. Take care and best regards.
Avatar f tn Thank you, will due the betty pot soon. I took some Benadryl but it has only made me sleepy instead of any better.
Avatar n tn Hello, As your son is having symptoms of food allergy to variable foods,so it could be due to any of the constituents of these foods to which he is allergic.Skin tests and blood tests are good for air borne allergies but for food allergies,food challenge tests and elimination diets are the best.That is the reason that the allergist has asked you to reintroduce these foods.
Avatar f tn I have hip and lower back pain, burning in my shoulders, pain in both elbows as well as some carpal tunnel symptoms. Also have pain in my right groin area and am unable to turn my knee out to the side because it feels like there is a catch and my hip does not want to rotate. In July, after a routine thyroid blood workup ( I have been hypothyroid for years) it was discovered that my thyroid antibody test was 350.
Avatar f tn Hello Again! I have posted on the gastrointestinal forum before due to previous problems with chronic burping (on full and empty stomach) and overall fatigued feeling, but after I stopped taking the steroids I had been prescribed the fatigue faded away, so I figured that was related to the prednisone. But now my symptoms have changed. I have been having foamy, white saliva along with thick, clear, stringy mucus that only comes up when I clear my throat, which I have to do all day, constantly.
Avatar n tn It is a disease affecting the lungs causing narrowing of the airways, usually due to an allergic reaction to triggering factors. Throat infections can trigger an attack. Therapy is with bronchodilators which cause the airways to dilate. Have yourself evaluated for the same. This can be detected by a spirometry test. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
Avatar m tn If you hadn't looked in your throat, would you have noticed? I ask because all sorts of things can happen like that and we never notice unless we are looking for it. then you see the redness and then you have symptoms. I'd say it sounds like something related to your allergies. We turned our furnace on here and my throat has been acting up since. It's likely due to dryer air for me. An infection would be more painful.
Avatar m tn This tube can get blocked due to infections of the throat, which can give lead to a feeling of fullness in the ears and the resultant sounds. This can also result in infection of the ears. Consult your primary care physician who will do blood tests and take a throat swab to prescribe appropriate medications. The blocked ears can be opened up by the valsalva maneuver, where air is blown into the cheeks against a closed nostrils, this sometimes helps to open up the tubes.
Avatar f tn s been somewhat persistent but it comes and goes and is never horrible -- every now and then I have a slight cough or have to clear my throat. Some of my co-workers had similar problems and they suffer from allergies. To go along with the itchy throat my throat also feels "tight" at times -- and almost like a "lump" in my throat -- although there is no pain and I don't feel it if I eat or drink (that actually helps the "lump" and the itchiness go away).
Avatar f tn The other common possibilities are gastro esophageal reflex disease, hyperplastic tonsil, abnormal upper esophageal sphincter function, stress or psychological abnormality causes this sensation due to altered upper esophageal pressure. You may need to undergo endoscopic evaluation, chest radio graph etc. Firstly I suggest you to consult physician for possible causes and further management. Take care and regards.
