Avatar n tn I had a colonoscopy four days ago and the anesthesiologist told me I would be given Propofol to sedate me and only if there were problems there was a chance that I might be intubated which might chip my teeth. I was positioned on my left side and instructed to bring my knees up to my chest. She then put a mask over my nose and mouth. I woke up with the worst sore throat of my life. My throat was blood red and it hurt to talk, cough, breath and swallow.
Avatar f tn A few days ago, on Tuesday I felt my left side of throat hurt when swallowing and yawning and the pain kind of went all the way from the side of my throat to my left ear, I then took medications and put on some gels and the throat part of it fixed, now my left ear just really hurts from the inside when swallowing, yawning and a little bit when talking. Can anyone tell me what this is? Thanks! Also to mention i have no fever, no dizziness, it's just the ear pain.
Avatar f tn I have had for a few months sharp, severe pain in upper throat on swallowing salad dressing or mayonnaise that has vinegar or fruit juice in it. No other symptoms. I find only supraglotteal cancer listed when I look on the Net for what this can be a symptom of. My ENT doctor had me get a barium swallow (stomach through larynx or most of larynx) which looked normal, and will be doing a more thorough exam (down-through-the-nose tube light, in-office); my mouth looked normal enough.
Avatar f tn When i visited him again he noticed that the swelling got better but i mentioned that i had some pain on the right side of my throat, mostly when swallowing(slight pain). He prescribed antibiotics which didn't make much of a difference(I believe it was Fluconazole). So, 3 months after, i have some sense of a tight throat and a little bit of throat pain that seems to get a little stronger at night and gets better during the day.

Avatar n tn I have severe throat pain on left side mainly underneath jaw and at bottom of throat. Seems to be set off by acidic foods, or swallowing bulky rough items. I have never had a sore throat like this before -- I have no other symptoms no cold, no runny nose, no cough etc. It has not gotten any better after a kind of 2 day onset 6 days ago. Yawning really hurts severely.
Avatar f tn I have had the problem of swallowing my food part, and I have had pain in my chest when I do. I also have problems with choking on my food. I have even had problem just swallowing my own saliva, but now that I think about it I have never told my neuro about it. Guess that is something I should write down to mention to him. There are so many symptoms to keep track of and I can't even remember what I had for breakfast much less what has happened to me in the month since my visit to him.
678297 tn?1226546462 I had a sore throat for a couple months and a feeling of a lump in my throat with difficulty swallowing. Turned out to be acid reflux. Not sure if that's what you have, but thought I'd mention.
Avatar f tn Does GERD cause throat pain? I will just get this dull aching pain feeling in the bottom of my throat. I don't think it is from eating though. I usually get it when I am stressed or excited about something or I've noticed when I get really angry and arguing about something. Is this normal? It really concerns me because it makes me feel like it's something else since it only happens from emotions and stress and not eating.
287996 tn?1312023682 t cause my throat to hurt. I would have chest pain but not throat pain or difficulty swallowing. I might be concerned that you have some acid erosion from acid reflux damaging your esophagus. This is an issue that could trigger pvcs due to the vagus nerve so I would go see your doctor or a gastroenterologist to get your throat checked out.
Avatar m tn while swallowing, i feel pain in the upper left part of throat and a little in my ear, what could this be?
Avatar n tn It could most probably be tonsillitis and a throat infection. Throat pain, difficulty swallowing, fever, scratchiness in the throat, post nasal drip, malaise and loss of appetite are symptoms of tonsillitis. It can be caused by bacteria like streptococcus or it could be a viral infection. Bacterial infections need antibiotics. Consult your primary care physician who will do blood tests and take a throat swab to determine the cause and prescribe appropriate medications.
Avatar n tn Hi, like your doctor has suggested your symptoms could be due to a throat infection. Throat infections are most probably streptococcal or a viral infections. Strep sore throat needs to be treated with an antibiotic as strep is a bacteria. Viral sore throat is best treated with rest, warm oral fluids and (OTC) tylenol (acetaminophen) or ibuprofen for pain. Ensure to complete your antibiotic course and do salt water gargles for further relief from your symptoms. Take care. Regards.
1435895 tn?1304291241 Today I got some results for the swallowing tests I had done on Monday. I was referred to these guys by the NS because I am having so much trouble with food getting stuck in my throat, coughing, hacking, choking when I try to eat. Now does anyone else have this happen? I am supposed to have a endoscopy week after next to see if they can find out why food isnt going down. In time for thanksgiving! Yay! I maybe wont have to puree thanksgiving dinner.
Avatar f tn Felt a strange pain in the lower right side of throat. Feeling the pain occasionally, while swallowing saliva not always though . But no pain while drinking water or eating food. Also there is no pain when pressing the throat and the adjacent areas with fingers. Got TSH test it came 3.84 (in normal range). Whats causing this? Is it anxiety?
572651 tn?1530999357 t figure out. During the summer I had 8 or 10 episodes of excruciating pain immediately after swallowing. It felt as if I had swallowed (no problem with the swallowing part) something way too big or unchewed or both. The area right above the adam's apple felt like it was wildly stretched in different directions and nothing could move in my esophagus. Taking a sip of water didn't help, as the water seemed to just sit on the rest, making the pain worse.
Avatar f tn I personally have had no trouble with the swallowing mechanism, but used to get sporadic and very acute pain immediately after swallowing. To begin with this was always at the top of the throat, right at the adam's apple, but later on I'd sometimes get acute pain at the very bottom of the esophagus. My gastroenterologist diagnosed me with GERD and said I have an esophageal stricture, which causes a narrowing of the tube. She doesn't think all this is connected to MS, but I wonder.
Avatar m tn m male 21 and a month a ago or so i have had this pain inside my neck at first i thought it was due to maybe a cold i had gotten better of but the cold and also diagnosed with bronchitis in the lungs is now long gone and i still continue to have pain in my throat lately i have notice recently i have to consistently clear my throat and notice wheezing and coughing but only a few times though put the day and sometimes i feel my voice change.
Avatar n tn All seem to be doing okay. However, recently I have been having a hard time swallowing. I can actually feel everything in my throat. Has anyone else experienced the same? I hate to go through any tests if anyone has suggestions. Wishing everyone long remissions!
Avatar m tn After practising this several times a day, I could hear a crackeling sound in my ears while swallowing. I calculated that the throat/swallowing-pain was a result of excessive air in mouth pressed down when I swallowed - into my pharynx. When my nose-swallow was "impregnated" by water-solution, the eustachian tubes opened up for air to flow into them and up the middle ear. I have to repeat this over and over again, not to get swallowing issue and pain.
Avatar f tn Test results were that my throat is having many spazms while swallowing. My biggest symptom is my throat locks with no warning.(Very frightening) I'm told my test showed very abnormal. The Dr. was arrogant and had no empathy. So I will see my other Dr. for the prognosis. I hope to hear from others. I am 65 years old and retired.
20107585 tn?1490291356 I developed a painful throat on swallowing over a week ago, a white ulcer (not a white spot, an ulcer a.k.a canker sore) on my tonsil, about the size of my baby finger nail. I went to the doctor and he said I had tonsilitis and gave me a 7 day prescription for clarythromycin. I have finished these. My canker sore did not get smalller, it got much larger (larger than my thumb nail now) and changes colour every day, from green with red spots to white and brown.
